Mini anti-golf rant

OK, so because of the "heralded" PGA Wyndham Championship being held literally one neighborhood over from our house, I have to drive waaaaaay out of my way to get to the grocery store just to get 7 gallons of water and some extra honey for a homebrew session today. Can't jut through the usual way past Sedgefield Country Club and the residential streets. Noooooo, we've got to drive out of our way because the Sedgefield streets are closed off with Greenboro Police asking for a driver's license to prove you live in Sedgefield proper and need to get through to your home.

Extra gas and miles (well, maybe it's just one mile) out of our way so that lower tier, subpar, trivial golfers like Brandt Snedeker can come to our fair town to win a trophy. The big-names-are-always-absent golf tournament that used to be held in the sticks down 421 at Forest Oaks is now right under our feet among our residences.

Seriously? "Brandt Snedeker"?

Hey,
It's gotta be better than a PUT-PUT tournament!

Brandt Snedekar? Granted he's not Tiger, but....... at least he ain't uncle Snert!!!!!!!!!!!!

He aint a household name, except in his household, but he can play. Thanks to a certain Mr. Woods, the big boys don't need the dough, so they don't come here anymore.
