Mamiko and I came to Brackpool for the Open
championship of Golf held in St.Anns.
| 22.July.Sun. sunny, The Open Championship |
We left the hotel at nine and waited a bus
to the site of the golf. Bus didn't appear
for a time, then two Japanese men talked
to us.
"Are you Japanese? If you go to
the
Open, we will drive you there, we are
going,
too."
What a good luck! They told us buses would
be occupied with people from far areas
Thanks to kind men, soon we arrived
St. Annes.
First, we went to the area of tee shot at
the 7th hole. This is a long hole, so that
we can see Tiger Woods's driver shot.
Many famous players appeared in turn, such
as Justin Rose, then Tiger Woods came.
When he appeared, security became more strict.
Of course photos were not permitted.
Anyway, Tiger did a great driver shot in
front of us.
And he is tall and his face is small, so
he is like a fashion model, I thought.
Now we moved to another hole.
We wanted to see the 18th green, but there
were already too many people.
Then we sat on the 17th green.
Garcia, Michelson were patting, and again Tiger Woods.
He made a wonderful eagle pat, and we saw
his winning(?) pause.
In a meantime, the tournament leader David Duval appeared with many gallery.
He won this championship for the first time.
Congratulations!
The Open Championship at St. Anns
