Turnberry to Glasgow Airport, then home.

This was the scence on the 18th on the Ailsa Course at Turnberry this morning. The guys played there yesterday and said it was an eeerie feeling coming down the 18th. You think that's bad imagine how Tom Watson is feeling every time he looks at the hole. From 1977 till the last day of The Open it must have been one of Toms greatest places to be, now he must feel a little different about the place. What a win it would have been, at 59 years old. What he achieved that week gave us all hope, so thank you Tom.
This morning was also the end for my guys from Manilla, vacation over and time to depart. They have been a great bunch of guys to work with, never a moments bother and no nasty suprises to check the drivers abilities. Some of you out there will know what I mean by that sentence. I still have nightmares about the Wilkes Party from three years ago !!
So I wish Jeffery, Henry, Robert and Merrick good luck and I hope I see them again, especially after the respect they showed their driver at the end of the trip.
Is it just me or does anyone else believe Lee Westwood can win a major. I'm tired of losing money on him. Still with Billy on the bag he has a better chance than ever, so I'm off to the bookies to give him my usual deposit and who knows I may see a return by the end of the P.G.A.
