I found myself with an interesting problem this week. Perhaps it's just the way the holidays fall this year or maybe it has to do with changes in the tour schedules, but we have an extra week without tournaments. Next week I'll do the final Limerick Summary of 2015, and the first of 2016 the week after that... but what could I do THIS week? I hated to break the regular "Monday in verse" routine, especially when it's probably the only routine I maintain on this blog.
Since GC has spent the week doing debates about what made 2015 so unique, and since the young people movement has been a massive part of that -- and let's face it, it's probably the biggest part of the 2015 tale as so many young gamers broke through with wins -- I decided to do a quick verse approximately this obvious converting of the guard. But it changed into too huge for a limerick, so you get my Not-a-Limerick Summary. Hopefully you'll get a laugh from it.
A main for Day and for Johnson,
A couple of majors for Spieth?
But Phil?S winless season and Tiger?S awful again
Left both players grinding their teeth.
Then Fowler walked off with THE PLAYERS,
The Scottish and Deutsche Bank too.
The young guns are coming,
they have got their games buzzing?
So good day, what?S an old guy to do?
Perhaps we?Ll see greater guys like Davis,
Who showed up at age 51,
Or greater of those guys in their forties who published
Some Top5s. You see? They?Re not carried out.
It looks as if a changeover?S coming
But don?T write the folks off yet.
Come twenty-sixteen, they?Ll be loaded for endure
And begin teaching the ones children a way to sweat.
