No, it does not consist of how many women a golfer has slept with. As a matter of fact, Tiger is not even involved in this.
Check out this tidbit the AP reported: “Italian 16 year-old Matteo Manassero became the youngest player to ever make the cut at the Masters, sinking three long par putts on the back nine Friday to finish at 3-over—right on the cutline. Manassero has now made the cut at both his majors, having tied for 12th at last summer’s British Open. “I always want to stay levelheaded since that’s the education that my parents gave me,” he said. “My parents help me also in this period to stay more level. But I dream for something like the Masters.” So do older golfers, and they don’t have his track record.
Manassero, who last summer became the youngest winner in the 124-year history of the British Amateur, shattered Augusta National’s previous record for youngest player to make the cut. South African Bobby Cole was about a month shy of his 19th birthday when he made it in 1967. Manassero is also the first amateur to play the weekend since 1999.And he’s the lone teenager out of the four in this year’s field to make the cut.”
Now, I’m not knocking Tiger’s return or his warm welcome by the fans. It’s just that I noticed how this feat by Manassero got pushed to the back burner because the prodigal son has returned. You know last time I checked, there weren’t too many 16 year olds making there way around Augusta National for a crack at the green jacket. Know why? BECAUSE IT’S THE FIRST F%@$IN’ TIME…EVER!
Kudos to you, Matteo! From one Paesano to another, in bocca al lupo!
