WGC Match Play Championships

This past weekend the worlds best golfers collided at Dove Mountain, Arizona for the match play championships. After Tiger Woods had an early field attention went to world #1 Lee Westwood and #2 Martin Kaymer. Kaymer ran through the field as Westwood lost in the second round. He became the new number one after he made it to the finals of the tournament. However, the story of the week was Luke Donald. He had not won on US soil in five years. He never made it to the 18th hole in all of his matches. He dominated and did the same against Kaymer on Sunday. Not even a surprise snow in Arizona could stop Donald's hot streak. Donald won and became the new #3 in the world rankings.

Dale Earnhardt Jr.

This past weekend was the 10th anniversary of the death of a Nascar legend Dale Earnhardt. He was on the top of the sport when he had a horrific accident that cost him his life. Throughout the career of Earnhardt Jr., he has been overshadowed by his fathers presence and sometimes it has been overwhelming. He finished first and has the poll for the Daytona 500. Most people including myself would love to see a win for him. It would make a great story and maybe it would put the questions about Earnhardt's driving in the rear-view mirror.
