Live from Pebble Beach

Well, not live...and not from actually, but this post is about the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. Top five are:

1. John Mallinger - Has played seven events and made three cuts in his life. Has earned about $40,000 on the Tour since 2002. He will choke.
   
2. Nick Watney - On the Tour since 2002, Watney has ten top-10 finished in his career and has earned a cool $2.1 mil in his career.
   
3. Phil Mickelson - Has really been in the dregs since the U.S. Open "incident" last season. He's been dismal this year, finishing T-45, T-51 and cut in three tourneys this season until now. It looks like he's found his stroke. It will be interesting to see how his play develops over this tournament and until the Masters for FIGJAM. A little trivia about Phil-he's left handed.
   
4. Arjun Atwal - He's from India. I wonder if he know S.S.P. Chowrasia??
   
5. Jason Schultz - Has been on the Tour only sporadically since 1996. His highest finish was T-24 at the now-defunct B.C. Open last year (doesn't count) and 26th at the Zurich in New Orleans last year (barely counts). Seriously, this guy's not good.

Also playing well are Easy On the Listerine and the currently-hot Aaron Baddeley. Notably sucking balls is Fred Couples who withdrew, probably because his back fell out of his ass.

Interesting blog of the events on the course today. Apparently Chris O'Donnell has a hell of a golf swing, and a giant tree fell over unexpectedly, scattering the gallery, but injuring no one. Not even George Lopez, although if it had the world would be funnier.

If I had to guess, and I don't because I read it, Bill Murray was a codescending jerk to anyone he perceived not to be a celebrity and was no doubt "on" throughout the tournament, playing overly comedic schtick anytime a camera was on him, or any was looking at him, at all, ever. Dude, we get it, you're a comedic genius and a great actor!
