1 Too Old ?No Way on Wed May 05, 2010 12:20 pm


At Turnberry, you can see the old shadows, who were top golfers and winners once. It’s just like the mutual funds people say: the new generation is stronger than the old generation, the generation should abdicate. Viewing the vigor and spirit of the old, everyone there doubt whenther their too old to swing their Golf clubs.
Imagining the scenario that the trousers were hitched up slightly too high, the shuffling gait was a legacy of his hip replacement last year, and he squinted hard to follow shot after solid shot down the fairway golf equipment. Is he old? No way to confess oldness. Tom Watson, golfing grandad, became 32 years younger when he stepped out at Turnberry. Watson, 60 in two months, plundered the memory bank as he picked his way around the Ailsa Links, turning wisdom and experience into a superb fiveunder par 65. In Watson’s word, at the Links it is never out for the age but the spirit.
Watson said: “I feel inspired here. A lot of it has to do with the presence here at Turnberry. I feel I am playing well enough to win the tournament. It doesn’t feel a whole lot out of the ordinary from 32 years ago except that I don’t have the confidence in my putting stroke as I had 32 years ago”, which let us know that the aged need no help around Turnberry, and confidence that his challenge can go the distance. He said he will win, for experience wins. He has played over six championships now and familar with some certain shots that kids are not. He has collect his clubs from discount golf clubs to expensive ones that kids are not. Open organisers the R& A have introduced an age limit, meaning past champions – Watson won his five Claret Jugs between 1972 and 1983 – are only exempt until they are 60.Watson agree to the age limit to leave the chance the youngger kids play though he thought he still can compete against the kids.
