GENTLEMEN STILL EXIST...

I LOVE enjoying the quest for the GREEN JACKET for the winner in the Masters Golf Tournament @ Augusta National every year. 

I've enjoyed watching it since I was a kid and my Daddy always watched it.  He would explain things to me but I didn't really care then...it wasn't the art of the sport that intrigued me when I was younger. 

However, now it is a different story.

I LOVE playing it, watching it in person, watching and listening to it on TV until all the wonderful birds, galleries watching expectantly, and TV hosts whispering drifts me off to sleep. 
There is NOTHING like the sweeping swish of the golf club on the drives
or
the clicking of the ball when it reaches the bottom of the cups on well-hit shots
or the feeling I get when I'm  the person doing either of the two things previously noted.

Do you enjoy a sport?  
update: 5 golfers, tied for first place @ -10 on the back nine...amazing, simply, amazing.  What an interesting final round!
