PGA Tour Drama

This 2010 golf season has barely gotten underway and just look at all the drama, "Tiger Woods doesn’t owe anyone an apology except his wife . . . Phil Mickelson violated the spirit of the rules playing a Ping Eye 2 wedge . . . Anthony Kim betrayed his La Quinta community skipping the Bob Hope Classic . . . . Michael Sim and Tim Clark showed no nerve laying up with tournaments to be won . . . John Daly’s claim he was “done with golf" was a publicity stunt.

All according to Randall Mell of the Golf Channel, a senior writer who is already worn out with the drama on the PGA Tour, this while writing about Bill Murray's arrival at Pebble Beach for this year's AT&T Tournament. In his article Bill Murray – Love him? Or Loathe him? he says "all the squabbling in the game this young season is giving me a headache."

I would like to suggest to Randall a couple of things, number one is to get yourself a big bottle of aspirin, cause the season is early. Just wait till Tiger Woods does come back! Everybody will be walking on eggshells, waiting for that first big faux paux to take place. And Big John Daly ain't quite done yet either, despite statements made after playing like a chop. His new reality show will generate more drama and buzz, can he come back or is he really done?

Secondly, I think Bill Murray is mellowing out a bit as he gets along in age and you won't see the antics of the past he has performed previously at Pebble Beach, dancing in bunkers with old lady's and such. He will interact with the crowd as he usually does. I happen to like the guy, I respect his talent, both comedic and dramatic. I don't know him personally but I think anyone that brings attention to the game of golf right now is welcome, antics or not.
