Play suspended due to wind? How windy is it, I would have thought it is part of the game unless it is life threatening (hurricane).

I was a bit surprised to hear this as well, but apparently the wind was blowing hard enough that tree branches were coming down. One of the marshalls was hit by a falling branch. According to pgatour.com, play was suspended because "balls wouldn't remain in place on the 16th, 17th, and 18th greens".

Grinding It Out
Play in the weather-delayed Verizon Heritage resumed this morning at 'dark-thirty' -- 7:45 a.m. ET.

In the early-morning cold and wind, Brian Gay is 2-under at the turn and T9.

This guy is good!

You Know It Ain't Easy
In the cold and wind, Brian Gay today fired a final round 73 to finish at 4-under par 280 and T16. His effort earned $80,000.

Brian once again beat all but a handful of the world's best players on a very tough golf course under very difficult conditions.

It ain't easy being good!

Wonder if he could hook a brutha up with a loan? Mikey's saving up for the big operation and all.

Bucket will be a groupie at the Wachovia next month. Can't wait to see that action again live and in person . . . I even got me a new wife beater and some toof paste for the affair.

I plan on making my presence felt on TV too! Instead of hollerin' "UDAMAN!!!!" listen for Bucket's lispy southern drawl hollerin' "THERE AIN'T NO ANGLE OF APPROACH TO AN ANGLE OF APPROACH!!!! WOOOOOO!!! DOGGIE!!!" I'm pretty sure that will be all the rage in a year or two . . . y'all heard it here first!
