It is true.
No electronic devices in any way, shape or form at the US Open.
Not allowed. It is Heaven.
We are NOT head down nation here this weekend.
You see people’s eyes.
They all watch the sport.
No sounds of beeping.
It is weird – like aliens stole our stuff!
We don’t know what to do.
I like it.
I am blogging now but will be walking the course later!
This is a pitch perfect story in the Washington Post. Read this one.
This is important.
This is big news.
A major new enterprise has opened up here in Potomac.
It is well financed and has the “best and brightest” working for it.
It is family owned and operated.
I expect BIG things from this one. Buy in now if you can.
I present to you “The Fernandez Hydration Technology Corporation” – expect the IPO in 2012.
Crazy. This is crazy and bad.
But worth it.
I live on the same major road as the country club where the US Open is being played.
You won’t believe the gridlock.
This too shall pass. Read this article for details. There are 50,000 people per day all on a two lane neighborhood road. Wow.
I am a member of Congressional Country Club. I live with my family in Potomac, Maryland. About three miles from the club.
I am fortunate that I have played the golf course many times at Congressional and am looking forward to walking the grounds at the US Open starting later this week. The best players in the world will be here as well as media and 50,000 visitors.
The Washington Post has created an interactive 18 hole feature of the course. Click here. It is terrific for those of you who want to see what the players will face during the tournament.
Click here. Check out this shot. What a great generational talent. Wow! What a winner with style, class and mad skills. Wow.
Has Federer lost it? Ever since the start of the year and his battles with mono, he hasn’t been his once dominating self. Losing in the Olympics to James Blake doesn’t auger well for his play in the upcoming US Open. Nadal seems to have psyched him out and is now the king of all of tennis. The King is dead…long live the King!
An amazing story! Tiger was really committed to winning the US Open on Father’s Day weekend but it was an expensive victory as he is now out for the rest of the golf season. He won the battle but lost the war. Smart career move? What do you think?
Tiger could be a good hockey player. He played hurt and won in the playoffs, too.
