salaam people...
i am extending my congratulations to the
good 'ol malay boy of singapore golf,
Abg Mardan!
i am very very, in all honesty proud of him.. i cried when he cried on the green yesterday.. i had tears when i overheard on TV when his wife said in a teary voice.. "i am so proud of you..."
well, given his backgroud... he started off a caddy boy... working the greens with leisure and professional golfers on the singapore fairways.
my knowledge of golf is only
*this much*, measured like only an inch.. but daddy.. he followed this competition with full gusto, dragging all of us to watch with him..
*chets*and i managed to catch the last 3 holes of the game.. when the defending champion, nick dougherty breathed down his neck through the last hole... nick birdied and i was shucks! you've got gather all guts to win this mardan! and he did! with 12 under par, he won.. close to nick's 11 under.
i want to watch him in the european league.. and every other worldly leagues! and perhaps donning the green jacket, just like WOODS!
