Even better than the solid beating the American's handed out to the rest of the world during the recent President's Cup was Woody (Aquaman) Austin's graceful dive/fall into a water hazard at the Royal Montreal Golf Club. Always the colorful character, Woody outdid himself this weekend! Gone were the flamboyant Tobasco brand scenery shirts but under the fashionable USA team garb lied our old, lovable Woody.
He was as animated as ever & a joy to watch as he made clutch putt after clutch putt during his pairing with Phil Mickelson to help pad America's lead during the 4 day event. Following his quick mid-round dip, Woody toweled off & proceeded to birdie the final 3 holes to lift him and playing partner David Toms to a tie in their 4 ball match with the South African team of Trevor Immelman and Rory Sabbatini.
Having now played in his first President's Cup at the age of 43, he's already got his sights set on 2009 and if he continue's playing anywhere near this level there's no way he doesn't make that goal.
