in his pocket to back him up ----- TREVINO
|
445.2 | | PHENIX::MCSHANE | | Tue Nov 15 1988 10:22 | 9 |
| THE SMART PICK
CURTIS STRANGE
BMc
|
445.3 | Celtics in seven! | HARLEY::DAVE | it's tee time !!! | Tue Nov 15 1988 12:36 | 8 |
| The peoples pick: Jack of course
He wins it all on number 18 with a second shot
sent from heaven. Then throws his clubs in the
drink and promises to win a seventh masters
before retiring. Can you say "dreamer".

445.4 | DALES DURO, LEE!! | JAWS::DIAZ | La Ultima y Nos Vamos | Tue Nov 15 1988 12:50 | 3 |
| I have to pick TREVINO. You know, he might get another ace.
Tavo (We Mexicans stick together :^)

445.5 | Jack's Back (?) | ODIXIE::WESTCL | Gator Golfer | Tue Nov 15 1988 15:06 | 6 |
| Jack was interviewed during the Nabisco Pebble Beach tourney last
weekend and said that recent cortizone shots have him pain free
at present, and that he has been swinging some short clubs. He
expects to play in the skins game.
My pick - Curtis Strange

445.6 | | WORDS::NISKALA | Better off dead, than Sooner Red! | Wed Nov 16 1988 08:04 | 1 |
| Curtis, the man is on a roll.......
|
445.7 | Floyd in seven!! | GRANPA::KVENEZIO | | Thu Nov 17 1988 08:30 | 5 |
| Don't count out Floyd. He might seem the underdog but he can putt
and that seems to be what counts. He also reminds me of a guy who
has played in some BIG money nassau's.

445.8 | Money Players | DIXIE1::WESTCL | Gator Golfer | Thu Nov 17 1988 09:40 | 3 |
| Isn't it a shame that the participants don't have to put up their
own money for this skins game. Only then would we know who the
REAL money players are.
|
445.9 | | FRSBEE::GARY | | Thu Nov 17 1988 12:17 | 10 |
| True, it would be interesting, but who'd want to put up their own
money to have cameras up the @$$ and microphones up the nose so
the network/s can make big bucks. Do any of the pros play their
own skins games off camera?
On another note, is there any guaranteed appearance money?
I like Floyd's chances too, he's got the look of a gambler.

445.10 | results... | MSEE::KELLEY | got to get the short game togther | Mon Nov 28 1988 08:30 | 15 |
|
Well, Ray sure came through with some great golf and winning
$290,000 (I think it was) and a car...!
Did anybody happen to notice what type irons Ray was using?
They looked like cavity backs to me (Ping?)? If they were
then it makes it particularly funny since the anouncer commented
that he was the only one using a wooden driver and was a
traditionalist (ya, even Jack was using a metal driver).
Better luck next time for Curtis (he could have used the money
too, ha ha)...

445.11 | Floyd's the One | GRANPA::KVENEZIO | | Mon Nov 28 1988 11:17 | 13 |
| Ref: .10
Gene, don't forget the Rolex (about $7K). I was also very interested
in the clubs he was using. It was a cavity back iron for sure. If
I'm not mistaken Floyd played for the Ram name a few years ago.
They could very well be Accubar (sp.) irons even though they are not
known as the top of the line iron. One thing I did notice was that
the irons had a ferrule. That generally rules out Ping and most
other cast irons.
It's a mystery to me.

445.12 | Not classic swings, but the results were fine! | MTWAIN::F_MCGOWAN | Ci stiamo gia divertendo? | Mon Nov 28 1988 12:39 | 4 |
| Re. 10...sure looked like cavity-backs on my TV set! The other thing
that stood out was the unorthodox swings of Floyd and Trevino, proving
that it ain't how, it's how many.

445.13 | Commercials can be fun too | SALEM::YACKEL | | Mon Nov 28 1988 13:24 | 6 |
|
Other than watching the great play, I get a kick out of some of
the "golf/Toyota" commercials.
