Teeing Off

Golf in the Lower Hudson Valley, from high schools to the pros

I’m being ducked

April
8

There’s a tennis court near our rental house, and the week began with grand expectations of early morning matches, perhaps culminating with the awarding of some silver platter.

Instead, what few tennis balls we had were left out in the rain, and it’s been bitter cold the last few days. But now that we’ve located a new can and the temperatures have risen to a manageable 45 degrees, my potential opponents are all….asleep.

This is unforgiveable, and so like a championship boxer angling for a fight, I’ve decided to call them out in the press.

You can run but you can’t hide, fellas. Wake up.

Oh yeah, in other sports news, Tiger Woods and Stuart Appleby are in the final pairing of the Masters.

Alex MyersAlex Myers
A sports reporter at The Journal News for nearly three years, Alex Myers has covered a bit of everything, but a lot of golf, ranging from the high school level to last year's U.S. Open at Winged Foot. His golf writing goes back to his college days when he attended Wake Forest University. Myers is also an avid player who is constantly trying to improve on his current handicap of 8. Perhaps his biggest thrill came earlier this summer when he conquered the famed 17th hole at the TPC at Sawgrass by hitting a 9-iron onto the island green and walking away with a 2-putt par.
