1851.0. "Freddie's 'back'" by BROKE::MOOK (Where are you between two thoughts?) Thu Mar 10 1994 12:15

Any news on Fred Couples' back?  I guess it did a number on him in the 
tournament last week.  His whole swing is based on turning himself into 
a 'human corkscrew'.  Can he play again up to his potential with a bad back?
Lets hope so.

1851.1'backed' out of the next two tourneysUSDEV::BLAISDELLRick, dtn: 297-5077Thu Mar 10 1994 12:3510
    
     Bob, I just read on Usenet that he has flown back home and will not
     play in the next two tournaments.  It's a wise move on his part as
     back problems are nasty and he will need to rest and repair for the
     upcoming Masters.
    
     Freddy is out but John Daly is back for the Honda to make golf on the
     tour interesting again!

    Freddy spent some time in Europe last year and really did well, he
    came over as a great competitor and a really nice guy. I, and many
    others enjoy watching him, I always think something special will happen
    when he tee's it up.
    
    I was rather hoping Long John would kick your tour into touch after his
    disagreements and ban. Daly really is an exciting player and would be
    most welcome in Europe. How about a swop, Daly for Faldo ?
    
    Back to the subject, Seve had back trouble after his swashbuckling
    style in the early days, know fred, how will long john do in years to
    come ?
