Swamp Thing Woody Austin emerged from his dip to birdie his last three holes

So what will we remember about Friday’s four-balls?: The International team made a storming comeback by winning four matches - but this will always be known as the day that Woody Austin achieved True Legend Status on YouTube.
Is that because Austin made eight birdies?: No, because of his not-so-swannish swan dive. Trying to hit his ball out of the water hazard on the 14th hole, Woody rolled up his trouser legs, swung, lost his balance on his follow-through, and did a twisting, face-first half-gainer into the pond.
That’s a great example for you young golfers about the perils of the reverse pivot…: Well, they’ve been saying Woody needs to chill out for a long time now.
Nice. So how did the Great White North’s favourite native son do?: Mike Weir played some brilliant golf alongside Ernie Els in helping the Internationals to a 3 & 1 win over Masters champ Zach Johnson and Charles Howell III, who did not have god on their side.
So what does the scoreboard behind the beer tent say now?: Well the Internationals narrowed their deficit to 7-5. Tiger Woods took his worst loss ever in team match play, thanks a lot to Vijay Singh, who was slam-dunking chips and bunker shots from everywhere. The big guy from Fiji now is 5-1-0 against Tiger in the President’s Cup.
Oh dear. If some other big fellas from Fiji get some inspiration from their countryman then Wales might be in trouble today in Nantes in the rugby…: What’s the matter, do you fear Vijay’s Fiji rugby voodoo mojo?
You could say that again...: Just give it a try. I dare you. Three times, really fast.
