Harrington's second shot on 17 was incredible. Do you know him? It was great to see Norman hold up and finish in the top 10, too. Greenfee, Thanks for the history lesson. I've been watching The Open Championship for decades and I never knew that! Just adds more to the allure, doesn't it? Cath, I like your contribution: I think there is sublime wisdom in what you say. LOL on golfer's block. That mysterious ailment affects many golfers and can last for several rounds. Is there a cure? Jackie, you got your wish! Harrington’s second shot on 17 was incredible.

I've been trying to think of another since yesterday but the only thing I can think of is they both make your arm ache if you don't practise regularly. I really suck at golf - people say they get writers block, but I get golfers block (sometimes it can take me all day just to hit the ball). Hi Brad – They are brilliant comparisons.
