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

From now on, Tiger Woods will plead the fifth

April
13

Apparently I’m not the only guy who wants to put his foot in his mouth today. Another is Tiger Woods, who said after his round that he never should have mentioned going for the Grand Slam.

“I learned my lesson there with the press,” said Woods, who claimed the fifth runner-up finish of his career in a major, and second straight at the Masters. “I’m not going to say anything.”

In other news, congratulations to Trevor Immelman, whose only costly mistake of the day was opting to sign his scorecard when his 2-year-old son, Jacob, wanted to play with him. A brief tantrum ensued.

Some day, I’m sure, the kid will understand.

    I really want to see Tiger win the GRAND SLAM but he was not a realistic coming into the final round.

    Nice job to finish 2nd this year but I guess that means another 12-month wait before he can try again.

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.
