Countdown to Big Break PEI – Introducing Canadian contestant Derek Gillespie
Well, the Masters is finally behind us. A little anti-climatic, don’t you think? It’s such a big build up, and then Sunday night, it’s all over. Oh well. A big congratulations to รngel Cabrera of Argentina for a solid win. It was a little sad to see Kenny Perry blow the last two holes, but hey…that’s golf right? And watching …

Well, it’s only 8 more weeks until the debut of Big Break PEI, and I can’t wait. Although I’ve watched all the Big Breaks, Big Break PEI will be the 3rd in the series where I get to interact with the contestants as they bite their nails watching themselves on TV.

Well, the wait is over! Spring is almost in the air and Big Break PEI is just around the corner. Woohoo!

When I started watching Big Break X Michigan tonight I did a quick look at the poll on Golf Channel to see who was favored. I have to say that I was not surprised to see Hugo and Camila out in front, given what I’ve read on the forums, but I was surprised to see by how much. It would …

Being “in the red” is usually a great thing in golf – negative scores are great – Tiger’s roars in red on Sunday are worth TIVO’ing – golf and red just go together in golf. But not tonight.

…”The Judge” rules! Wow! Are you as amazed as I am at Haymes’ ability to pull off the shots when he really needs them? He started off behind the 8 ball tonight and then nailed a drive when it looked like all was lost, followed by a great shot over the water. They say golf is a game of inches …

Okay, okay…an eagle is a birdie technically in the real world, but since when is golf “real”. For me Big Break’s are mostly unreal and sometimes surreal…and frankly…I had to find a way to use that alliteration in my title. ๐ What a rollercoaster tonight was! From Haymes’ new baby surprise (Congratulations Dad!!!), to bullet dodging by Amber and Robbie …

When thinking about what to call this post tonight, I couldn’t get Haymes’ great sound bite out of my mind, “It’s like watching a Nascar crash, hoping no one gets hurt.” I was sitting on the edge of my seat watching Sally and Dave go at each other wondering if the two long driving champions would drop golf gloves on …
