Ripped Out Fireplace Beckons For Tired Old Fanny

Fanny Sunesson, one of the most famous caddies on Tour is set to hang up her bib. 

fanny 2 On the bag of Nick Faldo from 1990-1999, the young bushy haired Fanny helped him win clam four of his six Major titles.

Always media shy about her achievements , Fanny remained tight lipped for many years choosing only to open up a little quite recently. “It's hard to beat a British Open victory at St. Andrews, precisely because it is about the place and the course. To get in there in the middle of town on the 18th hole is awesome, Nick was a giant and I felt like the giant’s eyebrow” she said. Indeed the sight of Faldo, doing what he did best, on that hot Summers day with a sweating Fanny urging him on, remains an iconic image in sport.

Following her split from Faldo, Fanny spent a short and painful period with Sergio Garcia, before moving to Fred Funk, who nearing 50, just couldn’t keep up.

fanny Realizing she herself was getting stretched,  Fanny got herself back in shape before hooking up her fellow Swede, Henrik Stenson five years ago. The two connected with Stenson immediately taking to the new trimmed down Fanny.  Their greatest achievement came when Stenson won the 2009 Players Championship, boosting him to No. 5 in the world. “I don’t know what I did before I discovered Fanny, getting her to caddie for me was a real snatch”, a delighted Stenson said on winning.

Sunesson injured her back a year ago after slipping on a bearded clam in Switzerland, which caused her to cut back on her caddying duties. Fanny had been flapping around in the world of coaching in any case, and decided to draw the beefy curtains on a glittering caddying career.  Sitting down with Stenson to discuss her back injury, Fanny revealed it felt like a ripped out fireplace these days and sometimes, even in the thick of the action, she felt like turning over and going to sleep.  A disappointed Stenson urged her continue, but she was asleep in seconds.

Fanny who’s age remains a closely gardened secret, has now dived head first into the world of coaching. “Coaching is fun, almost as much fun as caddying,” she said. “To choose between the two would be like spitting hairs.”

Apple Releases Mobile Warming Gear Waterproof Heated Golf Jacket

Mobile Warming Gear This is one of those “now why didn’t we think of that” ideas that has hit the golf market.

Yet even though Britain and Ireland spend half the golfing year in freezing, wet conditions, this one came from warm and sunny America.  From Apple in fact.  That’s Keith Apple, general manager golf of Mobile Warming Gear who has come up with a collection  of waterproof, heated golf jackets.

The 100% waterproof jacket is wired up with heating coils that run off a tiny rechargeable 7.4-volt lithium battery that will last 10 hours at the lowest heat, the same as it takes to play a round of golf these days.

I know what you’re thinking, you can’t trust anything Apple says in relation to batteries but at half the price of an iphone, $200 for the jacket it seems a winner.

 

Golf Swing Shirt Strait Jacket Training Aid? Harry Houdini Would Turn In His Grave

If you thought golf training aids could not get any more ridiculous check out  the Golf Swing Shirt, the latest invention to mess with your mind.Golf Swing Shirt.jpg

Its a crossover between and sleeveless top and a big ladies’ bra and it’s designed to keep those elbows connected to the chest (as suggested by Ben Hogan in his teachings).

Ray Rapcavage, inventor of the Golf Swing Shirt, came upon the idea by accident when he shoved both arms down one sleeve of his jumper to distract some poor bugger who had a dose of the shanks.

The other guy laughed so hard, the shanks disappeared.  It’s unclear where the big ladies bra came from.

The jumper-bra golf swing shirt is selling for 60 bucks and comes with strict instructions “to only be worn in your own bedroom when your partner is away”.

2012 ISPS HANDA Perth International Betting Preview and Tips

ISPS HANDA Perth International, Lake Karrinyup CC

Perth, Western Australia, Australia 18 Oct 2012 - 21 Oct 2012

The big names in the field this week are Charl Schwartzel, Bo Van Pelt and Jason Dufner and can be got at 13/2.  They may be the big guns but there’s little value there for the average punter given we don’t have any form indications on this course. 

However Brett Rumford 25/1 is a player I expect to do well this week as the home player.  After a poor mid season in Europe, the Aussie with the long putter put in a great performance at the Johnnie Walker in Gleneagles, followed by a top 20 in Switzerland.  Finished with a 67 in St Andrews last time out to finish 22nd at the Alfred Dunhill. Being the local, he surely has a chance.

Greg Chalmers 10/1 is also a Perth native although he spends most of his time now on the PGA Tour.  He won twice at the end of last year Down Under,is playing super golf at the moment and is in the world’s top 50 at the age of 39.  His ninth at the Barclays was his best finish of the season to date and finished 16th last time out at The BMW Championship. 

Long odds glory hunters might take a look at Andrew Dodt this week at 80/1. His return to form in Portugal after eight missed cuts really impressed me especially the Saturday 64 which helped earn a 16th place finish.  Golf is a confidence game and Dodt definitely has it at the moment. 

Richard Bland is also available at 80/1.  Long overdue a big break and that will come when he strings four rounds together because he undoubtedly has the talent. His best performances of the year in Ireland, Austria, Holland and Italy were all punctuated by one poor round.  Played well last Sunday in Vilamoura.

Rory McIlroy’s 2013 Tour Schedule

Rory McIlroy has had an exhausting year and it’s not over yet with four more appearances to come in the run up to the Race To Dubai final.  However next season Rory plans to curtail his Tour appearances.

rory mcilroy fat funny[3][5] Looking at the Tournaments he has played in 2012 and bearing in mind that he will tee it up at the BMW Masters in Shanghai, WGC - HSBC Champions in Mission Hills China, the Barclays Singapore Open in Hong Kong and finally the DP World Tour Championship in Dubai it will bring McIlroy’s total (Tour events) for the season to 24.

According to sources Rory will play a maximum of 22-23 worldwide events, to stay fresh, in 2013.  So which events will be cut?

Looking at his 2012 appearances on both Tours, Rory started the year in Abu Dhabi and then played in Dubai.  Expect him to play in Dubai at least in 2013 as his key sponsor Jumeirah Hotels operate in that part of the world.

Aside from the BMW PGA Championship, the flagship European Tour event at Wentworth and the 142nd Open Championship both of which he will play again next year, Rory’s only other mainland Europe appearance this year was at the Irish Open in Portrush.  Being that the 2013 Irish Open is moving back south to Carton House, it may very well be the case that this event get’s dropped from Rory’s schedule. That might be a controversial one.

Apart from the big money PGA Tour events, Rory played the Honda, Wells Fargo, Memorial and St Jude Classic this year.  Having  won the Honda, he most likely will defend there in 2013 and having won the Wells Fargo in 2010 and come second in 2012 and given that it’s the week before the Players, he should also play there. The Memorial is pretty much a given too with Jack’s influence.

That leaves the St Jude Classic as a potential PGA Tour event he may chose to miss in 2013 having played there this year then missed the cut at the US Open the following week.  He may chose instead to practice at or near the Merion, Pennsylvania US Open venue and save himself the 1000 mile trip northeast from Memphis.

With a potential appearance at a new big money European Tour event to be added in Turkey late next season after the PGA Tour playoffs and continuing his late Asian swing as in 2012, dropping two events and adding one would bring his 2013 appearance total to 23.

Of course that, for now, is speculative but we will post his full schedule here when announced.

Here is Rory’s schedule to date in 2012 with 4 events to go

Video: Ollie, Howell, Lewis, Santos Attempt Impossible Boat Shot

The guys had 600 balls to attempt to break a small glass sphere in the back of one boat whilst hitting from on top of another.  Think it sounds easy?  here’s how they did.

 

Video: Phil Mickelson Misses Halftime Shot At San Diego Chargers Game

mickelson halftime shot Poor old Phil Mickelson just cannot seem to hit the target lately and so it proved again as his 100-yard shot at halftime of Monday night's Broncos-Chargers game flew long. To both cheers and boos from the crowd he missed out on a million bucks but still raised a consolation $50,000 for First Book, a children’s charity.

Had he hit one of the in the middle of the green in the ''KPMG Chip4Charity'' promotion, Mickelson would have raised anywhere from $100,000 to $1 million for the charity depending on how close he got to the centre.

mick2 As it is, the $50,000 will buy 20,000 books.

''I must have had a little bit more adrenaline because the ball was a little bit long. I thought I hit a pretty good shot but it flew long,'' Mickelson said.

''I haven't had this experience. This is an amazing experience. In golf, we don't get this,'' he said. ''The 16th hole at TPC Scottsdale has nothing on this. This was awesome, seeing the Jumbotron with my picture, as I'm looking up taking the shot, that was unique. That was something that was pretty cool.''

 

Irishman Paul McLoughlin Set To Welcome Europe Ryder Cup Winning Team at the 2012 BMW Masters in Lake Malaren, Shanghai

With Europe in the grip of recession and the European Tour doing a Captain Picard impression and attempting to seek out new world’s and civilizations (with a few quid), Lake Malaren in China finds itself at the heart of this year’s Race To Dubai. But open the door of one of Asia’s wealthiest golf resorts and you will be greeted with a handshake and a “howya”, not a bow, by Irishman Paul McLoughlin.
So how did an Irishman, who hadn’t committed a serious crime, end up in China? Well like all good honest, well qualified Paddies seeking work nowadays, McLoughlin fled Ireland. After wowing the suits with his CV which included setting up a golf resort in Poland (a country much like Ireland in that it has lots of Polish people in it) Paul now heads a 220-strong golf operations staff at the Lake Malaren venue which has been redeveloped for this year’s Tour event by Jack Nicklaus and his design team.
It’s no secret that people work hard in China. Paul remembers toiling around the clock to organize the inaugural Shanghai Masters last year. The $5 million pot then was offered to a restricted field of 30 players with Rory McIlroy winning. This year, thanks to another 80 hour a week regimen, Paul has helped develop a fully fledged European Tour event with a bounty of $7 million and a 78 strong field.
So what can the likes of Rory McIlroy and the Tour’s latest winner expect as they head to Shanghai? Well one thing is for sure, it’s going to be luxury all the way. Golf is reserved for the exceptionally wealthy in China. The state of the art Lake Malaren resort has a three level club house and boasts a dual directional driving range with 30 bays each side and an 18 hole putting green. It also has a 250 bedroom five star hotel to accommodate the field.
I caught up with Paul during a break in the preparations last week to quiz him on life away from home and upcoming BMW Masters.
 

Have you family in Shanghai? At home? Do you miss Ireland?


I came to China in 2010 alone after opening a golf resort in Poland and went for an interview in Shanghai and was successful from large group of applicants.
Absolutely, I miss family and friends, however I can’t get this type of experience currently in Ireland, and to reach the top of our profession in many aspects there are always sacrifices.
I have lived and worked in America for five years, Poland for two years and already in China two years in addition to stints in Ireland at Glencullen Golf Club, Clontarf Golf Club and Portmarnock Golf Range.
Each continent is a different culture and challenges, and we have to adapt in order to be successful in this industry.
 

What is your role in the tournament?

In 2011 we where the promoter of the invitational Shanghai Masters with winner Rory McIlroy winning the $2million highest first prize in golf. In 2012 we became presenting partner of the BMW Masters and strategically formed this new mega event on the European Tour.
view to 18th green To make the club and operation 100% ready for a massive European tour event.
My role is also involved in planning and liaising with BMW and European Tour teams in many meetings from eight months in advance of the event. We have very large checklists that we are watching each week with timelines. The BMW Masters will go out to several hundred million viewers globally. With three weeks to go we are on track. We overseeded the golf course two weeks ago so it will look really green on TV.
 

Do you get many golfing visitors from other countries during the year?

Our core business is from a full membership of 1500 members, the majority are Chinese businessmen.
We have two courses, the Masters Tour Course which is for members and their guests only, and then we have the Forest Course which is open for all categories of play. We have 80,000 rounds a year over 36 holes with 170 caddies in daily use.
We get many expat players living in Shanghai playing and we always welcome tourists with a stay and play package in our 274 room hotel onsite.
Golf is still a relatively new sport in China. With golf in the Olympics in 2016, we are hoping the Chinese central government lifts the current banning of new course developments since 2004.
 

So where will you be in 10 years time?

For sure in the golf industry, maybe have a similar job in Ireland, maybe working a little less and playing more!

So tell me have you any funny stories from the pros?

My lips are sealed. They are almost all very friendly and personable, and good company. I had the great honour of bringing Rory’s clubs and trophy out to his car last year. Does that count? Only joking!

The Golf Monthly Top 100 Courses 2012. Fact, Fiction or Based On Advertising Spend?

Every year the same argument, how do Golf Monthly devise their list of top 100 UK & Ireland courses?  Nobody I know in the golf industry in Ireland contributes to the list and I’ve certainly never been asked. Yet there it is, proud as punch every year, every course with a number as if to declare it’s better than one lower down.
Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy the concept and am delighted to see previously unheralded courses such as Rosapenna Sandy Hills and Old Head finally get some recognition.  However I do have some issues.RMO_trap_R
Pic: Rory McIlroy in Ballyliffin
On a debate on facebook yesterday, the general consensus from a cross section of my 5,000 golfing friends is that ‘money talks’ and the suggestion was popular that those choosing to pay to advertise with Golf Monthly were somehow more likely to be afforded a higher ranking than those that did not. Of course I cannot confirm if there is any credence whatsoever to that suggestion.
Solheim Cup venue Killeen Castle is held up as an example of a course with financial difficulties and thus little advertising spend, but nevertheless a magnificent venue conspicuous by its absence from the list.
The list, in my opinion however, is full of seeming inaccuracies, the most glaring of which from an Irish point of view is the positioning of Ballyliffin Glashedy (safe to say universally regarded by Irish pros, amateurs and industry workers as among the top five links courses in the country) at number 74 on the list.  The venue was chosen as the iconic Irish links location by Oakley for their $6 million advertising shoot in 2011.
And Portmarnock Links have every right to feel hard done by at 90 on the list.
WOODS1 Also is it really correct to rank Irish Open venue Adare Manor at 98th on the list, 45 places lower than Hankley Common in Surrey? 
Pic: Tiger Woods tamed at Adare, 2010.
Surely if you match both venues in layout, beauty, difficulty, features, size, playability, facilities, it’s performance hosting Major events, clubhouse and ambiance, Adare would come better than 98th.
Here’s the list. Grab some tissues, this may make you weep.

2012 McGladrey Classic Free Golf Betting Preview and Tips

Winner Alright

Last week we tipped Jonas Blixt to win at 33/1. That’s two in a row after Ryan Moore came in at The Shriners.

Ben Curtis 33/1

ben_curtis_2_lg[4]After four brilliant tournaments from his win at the Valero Texas Open to his second at The Players things had to cool off for Ben Curtis. Two top 25’s at the BMW Championship and the Frys.com Open indicate a return to form and with this week expected to be a putting test with the 7,000 square foot of greens expected to run at 12 on the stimp I can’t think of anyone better with the flat stick. Tied 15th in 2010.

Michael Thompson 40/1

Former Walker Cupper Michael Thompson’s 2012 highlight has to be his Sunday 67 at the Olympic Club to finish second at the US Open. However in the seven following tournaments he finished under par just once at the Canadian Open (1 under). However two weeks back at the Shriners, Thompson bagged 20 birdies and an eagle to finish 11 under in a tie for 13th. Add to that course form too with a third last year, just one shot shy of a Webb Simpson, Ben Crane playoff.

Vijay Singh 20/1

singhLoath him or just plain hate him there’s no denying that Vijay Singh is finding form again on the PGA Tour. Last weeks tied fourth at the Frys.com Open was his fifth top-10 of the season and his best result. More interestingly, though Singh is traditionally regarded as a poor putter, he lead the field in putting last week thanks to a new grip. Since this Sea Island venue has some of the toughest greens on the PGA Tour, Vijay could be in line for another big week.

Jeff Overton 28/1

Regular readers will know that Overton has been on my radar of late and though he hasn’t made us money, he has done well. His eighth place at CordeValle, follows his 13th at The Shriners. Finished five shots off Ben Crane in tied sixth in his debut here last year 2010, his best result for four months at the time. This year he enters the event in much better form and could certainly be a winner.

Charles Howell 40/1

charlesIf you asked me to name an under achiever on the PGA Tour the first name on my list would be Charles Howell. He finally got back on the horse last week at the Frys.com finishing just outside the top 10 with an impressive haul of 18 birdies. A Georgia resident and the holder of the course record 62 here (set in 2010 when he tied sixth), it’s not beyond the realms of possibility for Howell to have another good week. Back him if you’re brave enough!

 

Vijay Singh Still Going Strong After Almost Half Century As Most Hated Man in Whole World

By Ron for golfcentraldaily.com

With the 2012 PGA Tour season petering out and factually based news stories increasingly thin on the ground, focus has turned to that old chestnut Vijay Singh who is closing in on celebrating 50 years as the most despised man, not only in golf, but in the whole world.

vijay singh[4] "It’s great to see Vijay back playing well at 49 and being hated as much as ever” senior PGA official Brent Spiner told reporters, explaining that Singh has become incrementally more loathsome over each of the past 15 years. “I honestly didn't thought we would ever find somebody to hate more than Scott Hoch in his prime but boy, was I wrong,"  he added "The way he walks, that squeaky smile, that disdain he seems to carry for his fellow earthlings just do it for me every time; he is truly remarkable.”

Singh has become synonymous over the years as being the hardest practiser on Tour, a fact Spiner agrees with.  “He practices being obnoxious, being up his own arse and belittling people more than any other professional on Tour”, says Spiner.  “He also practises golf quite a bit.  Vijay spends so long taking shots in a bunker some people call him Hitler but I personally think that’s unfair” he added.  “On Hitler”.

Vijay’s sister Ijuswanna Singh also spoke recently about what was like to grow up in Fiji with her cranky brother. 

"It was obvious Vijay was different from the very start”. Ijuswanna said.  “He never played seven’s rugby, our national sport, and preferred instead to club young kitten’s to death on the roadside. I suppose that’s where he got his swing and his reputation as a complete pussy.”

damien-omen-slideshow-pic “Our mother remembers him cycling around the upstairs on a tricycle humming the overture from The Omen when I was brought home from the hospital after being born and several strange incidents including one with our Nanny and one of his school friends who got caught under some ice.  And oh yeah I forgot about the guy who got his head lopped off by the pane of glass after laughing at Vijay’s glasses. That was a weird one.”

david_feherty devil It’s thought that the PGA will honour Singh next year by inducting him into the Hall Of Hatred.  There he will join names such as Hoch, Faldo and Montgomerie and receive the The Black Raven trophy from host and Beelzebub lookalike David Feherty.

More as it emerges.

How Tiger Could Fulfil His European Tour Membership Without Ever Coming To Europe

Here’s how messed up the criteria for being a fully fledged member of the European Tour is.  Tiger Woods could potentially join the European Tour and fulfil the minimum required 13 starts without ever setting foot in Europe.

Tiger The four majors count for the European Tour.  Say he misses the British Open.  Total=3

The four WGC events count toward European Tour status.  Total = 7

Ryder Cup and Presidents Cup count also. With one on every year that’s another bizarre one.  Total = 8

Big money Autumn events in Asia and Middle East such as in Turkey, Shanghai, Singapore, Hong Kong and Dubai.  Total = 13

So there you have it, Tiger Woods could be a member of the European Tour without once coming to Europe. Wow!

Christina Kim is angry with Brittany Lincicome after Lincicome sighed about her play at an LPGA Tour event in Malaysia.  Meanwhile poor old Christina is headed to LPGA Q-school to try and get her card after not even getting an Asian invite.

Lincicome kicked it off by tweeting: Golf is SOOO dang frustrating :-( Can't wait for the year to be over!!!!!!!!!!!

then added: Rain rain go away!!!!! Actually if it stays around I won't have to play anymore!!!!! :-)

Christina then came rushing in with a stop complaining tweet and ding ding, it was time for the fight!
