Bullsh!t-o-meter: The (British) Open – Round 2

July 17, 2009 / Posted in British Open, Humor/Satire, The Majors

The Bullsh!t-o-meter is working overtime right now and in the process of testing we found a bug that only produced results for “TW” golfers.  So here is an abbreviated Tiger Woods/Tom Watson BS-o-meter on two of your favorite golfers playing at who have played at Turnberry this week.  Enjoy.

“I hit some bad tee shots, a couple of bad iron shots, didn’t get it up and down,” Woods said. “I kept making mistake after mistake.” – Translation: “I looked absolutely human, even I can’t believe it.”

“I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t think I could win,” Watson said. – Translation: “I can’t believe I’m doing this either.”

“Unfortunately, it just didn’t happen,” Woods said. “No doubt I’m frustrated. I was playing well the first seven holes, right there in the championship. I felt like if I was under par for the tournament, I would be in the top 10. I didn’t do that. I went the other way.” – Translation: “By ‘the other way’ I mean the way to the airport, then to Haney’s front door where I am going to c*ck punch him and then to Hazeltine to avoid going 0-fer in majors this year.”

“It’s as if the spirits are on my side,” said Watson, who rolled in a 75-foot birdie at the 16th and a 45-footer at the final hole. “I hope the spirits stay on my side.” – Translation: “I’m drinking on the course.”

“I just made mistakes,” Woods said. “And obviously you can’t make mistakes and expect to not only make the cut, but also try and win a championship. You have to play clean rounds of golf, and I didn’t. I made my share of mistakes out there today and didn’t play a very clean card.” – Translation: “If you ask me one more question about ‘what happened’ out there I’m going to c*ck punch you too.”

Watson on playing partner Sergio Garcia’s advice during the round – “It was nice of Sergio to give me a little pep-talk there: ‘Come on, old man’ he said.” – Translation: “If I were 20 years younger there would be police dogs searching for that Spaniards carcass right now.”

    Now, that’s funny. Very funny…

    I always thought of Tiger as a “open up a can of a$$ whooping on you” kind of guy, vs. c*ck puncher. But, he was pretty upset…and they say major surgery can change one’s outlook…
