Charley Hoffman=My Favorite New Golfer

My favorite new golfer is Charley Hoffman after he missed a gimme put on the 13th hole of The Player's Championship on Friday. Check out what transpired next and lets just say that Charley was not a happy camper.



Hoffman used a sand wedge and a hybrid club to putt for the final 5 holes. Hoffman's caddy's quote is classic.

"I had thoughts of diving in front of it,'' caddie Miguel Rivera said. "I did actually think about going in, but the water looked a little funky.'

Hoffman's actions was reminiscent of my own club tossing melt down at the 9th hole of GI(NE)Muni golf course while I was in high school. Not following the teachings of Tin Cup, I hurled my valuable 7 iron into a fareway water fountain. Even I though I still played like crap that day, it felt damn good.

Golf is the most perplexing and frustrating of leisure activities. It is supposed to provide relief to your stressful life but after snap hooking a drive or chunking an iron, my blood pressure will rise to unhealthy levels.

It refreshing to see that pros are not exempt from the weekend pain of sloshing through bad shots and dropping F Bombs like us regular schmucks experience out there on the course.

I know your agent, close members of your inner circle and the PGA probably disagree with your outburst but Mr. Charley Hoffman, you earned a new fan today.
