Fine, I didn't MEET them, but I was front row for them today when they teed off at #15 at the Memorial practice round/skins match. First PGA event for me in person and I was just overwhelmed with how good these guys are. I'm a very good golfer but am quite a ways away from even standing a chance in hell against one of these guys!

Here's a pic I snapped from about 20 feet away.

    I remember going to a U.S. Open in Medinah years ago and Jack walked by me within a foot or so. I remember that he was shorter than me. Your idols are supposed to be at least 20 feet tall,aren't they?

    Come to Augusta in April for the practice rounds if you really want to get close to the big boys.

    Not a big fan either...follow a little bit. Doesn't Tiger's wife ever go with him like some of the others? Would make for good TV viewing!
