7 Things We've Learned From Golf This Week

29 Apr, 08 | Tags: 7 things we've learned from golf this week | Golf Central | Media Watch

Listen mate, the rule book says play it as it lies...

It was one of the hardest decisions we’ve ever had to make here at In Golf We Trust, which just goes to show how complicated our lives are. After six hours of heated debate, we've settled foo the fact that it just makes sense to have seven things to learn in a week - one thing for each day of the week- rather than ten as previously posted. Unilke rising fuel costs and falling property prices, you'll still get top value for your dollar, although as you're not actually paying for this unparalleled level of journalistic insight, you're doing OK out of the deal either way. Anyway, back to business…

A golf ball lost to water is a golf ball lost forever:
Get over it. Try telling that to 62-year-old Dwight Monreal, who had an eight foot alligator latch onto his arm and try to drag him underwater whilst wading through a pond at a Tampa golf and country club (in search of golf balls). He managed to wrestle himself free, but a lesson learnt we feel.

Golf and crime don’t mix:
Ask Mohd Bazli Ali, who thought he could somehow get away with selling fake golf club memberships in Malaysia. Pretty stupid to think you’ll ever get away with something like that, really.

Donald Trump always gets what he wants:
Apart from a decent hairdo, that is. Ed Russo, a self confessed tree-hugger who buried a fire engine at Donald Trump’s Bedminster golf course in protest to its construction, now works for the billionaire as head of environmental issues at the course. Hypocrite.

The Mighty Boosh will never be funny:
But Golf War, a 15 minute comedy brought to you by the same people behind the unexplainably popular Boosh, certainly is. We won’t bother going into the details, so just get your asses onto YouTube and find out for yourselves.

Disc golf…. pointless:
It’s not golf, is it? It’s just a lazy excuse of a name, devised haphazardly in the pursuit of making an otherwise extremely enjoyable beach activity into a sport.

The evenings are getting lighter:
Granted, this British weather is still hit and miss -even though it is officially summer time- but the evenings are getting lighter, which means less time spent in the office and more time hacking out of the rough and missing sitters.

Ioan Gruffudd knows the pain of golf like no other:
No, no, no. The Welsh actor’s not suffering from a bout of the yips or shanks. Gruffudd and his wife alice were out enjoying a round when she swung a club and accidentally struck him square in the face. A black eye probably wasn’t the look Ioan was banking on as he picked up a Welsh BAFTA on Sunday.
