Party In 'NOLA


This week on the PGA Tour the players stopped in the Big Easy to compete in the Zurich Classic of New Orleans. The fans were in for quite a tourney this week, with Bubba Watson and Webb Simpson duking it out on the 18th hole a few times before Bubba ground out a win. They entered the playoff both at 15 under par. Webb could have won the entire thing outright, but an honest mistake penalty of him touching his ball down the stretch on a tap in par putt cost him a shot and had him head in the clubhouse parring out. Bubba too had a chance to win the tournament, but he left his birdie bid on the 72nd hold just inches short, and off to the playoff went. The playoff saw some pretty good golf action, with Bubba birdieing 2 out of the 3 times they played it, with the final birdie to beat Simpson. Bubba now leads the Fed Ex Cup with his 3rd win in 10 months, while the young Webb still searches on for that elusive first PGA Victory.

WORLD NEWS: President Obama has declared that the US troops have shot, killed, and obtained the body of terrorist Osama Bin Laden earlier today. This is a monumental moment in American history and a proud moment for many people around the world!!
