This weekend's stop on the PGA Tour was The AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am. That's the only tournament where a national TV audience can watch a bunch of amateurs play alongside the pros, at one of golf's most beautiful and famous venues, no less.
Some of the amateurs are decent, but watching them this weekend I could only think of the following scene from Caddyshack:
Tony
D'Annunzio: [caddying for the elderly Havercamps... to Mrs.
Havercamp] Your ball's right over there, go straight. You can't miss it.
Mrs. Havercamp... Mrs. Haver... Mrs. Havercamp... you'll need this.
[hands her her club]
Mrs. Havercamp: Oh, I might at that!
Tony D'Annunzio: Mr. Havercamp, your ball's right over there, sir. [Havercamp puts hand out for club, Tony hands it to
him as he attempts to shoot away from the green] No... Mr. Havercamp. The
green's right over there, sir.
Mrs. Havercamp: [knocking ball into the pond] Whee!
Mr. Havercamp: That's a peach, hon! Oh, by golly... I'm hot today!
[he slices it and it barely misses Tony's head]
You must Google the scene for the full effect!
