The Duck hits a long ball!  During the 2009 Presidents Cup we were standing on the 18th fairway at Harding Park (see picture) by the clubhouse and Angel almost hit us with his drive.  He was a good 50 years longer than anyone else.   Is Bernhard Langer?   Maybe not,  but he is one of our faves and at 55 years only 5 shots out!

·         The longest drive ever is 515 yards. The longest putt ever is a monstrous 375 feet.

·         The term birdie comes from an American named Ab Smith. While playing 1899, he played what he described as a “bird of a shot”, which became “birdie” over time.
