LynnBlakeGolf: I discreetly move down six tables on the empty patio. Mrs. Yoda's not here -- and Miguel and his lady deserve that space.  |

LynnBlakeGolf: Most of the PGA players are in now. From the patio I count 22 Mercedes Benz S550 courtesy cars. Fittting transport for the world's best!

LynnBlakeGolf: Alone again on the patio. 12-wheelers roar down I-494 toward their destinations. Tomorrow, TOUR players will begin their prep in earnest.

Good times Yoda!
I take it you mean't Miguel Angel Jiminez though?!!
A great guy, they call him the mechanic on tour and in the run up to the 2004 Ryder Cup, he is reported to have said to Bernard Langer in one of the team talks:
"I have just 3 demands.
1) Good Cigars
2) Good red wine
and 3) Good coffee, american coffee is sheeeeeeet"
lol!

I love the guy too. Ever since I saw his warm up routine at the 2008 Masters. He looked like he was waking up and wiping the sleep from his eyes, lit a cigar, did some back stretches for 10 minutes or so then hit a bit. Nice shoes too.
Styles why do they call him the mechanic?

Ouch! Right you are, GP . . . It was a long day. But, two names out of three ain't bad! Love his quote.

LynnBlakeGolf: After a full day on the tee and course at Hazeltine, I'm back on the patio at Hotel Sofitel. This time, Miguel A. Jimenez beat me here.
