Hangover Golf

Unless he flies in at the last minute from Vancouver, it would appear that fan favourite, Jesus Bonehead, will not participate in his third consecutive Hangover Golf Championship.

Known for a half decent game of golf, even though he needs a caddy just to count his score, he's better known for his abilities with the brown bottle. For the last two years, he would be the last man at the bar well into the wee hours calling all those that left before him "a bunch of quiffs!"

MONTREAL - August 16, 2006

Tour veteran Eagle Klubhead announced yesterday that he will not participate in any tour events until the upcoming Hangover Golf Championships.

Klubhead cited personal reasons and unsatisfaction with his play so far this season for his decision. He hopes to be back in fine form for the big tournament and possibly a few fall events.

On numerous occasions this year, he claimed his "head wasn't into it" but tried to play through it thinking hitting the links more often would make it pass but he insists "nothing worked" and that he "wasn't having any fun".

Relaxing at home between rounds.

Considering that Golf des Îles is an island course populated by many deer and birds and surrounded by more than a few disco-blaring party boats, I guess a sign like this becomes necessary. Unfortunately some of us who teed off did not heed the sign!

Sandy's Temporary Insanity

Opting to stay in the city for the weekend instead of cottaging-it with the rest of the tour, Nassau and Divot headed North to play at the newly revamped Deux-Montagnes. Keeping with tradition, we were put with 2 other players who have the same first name, this time...Robert(today was the 3rd time we have played with same named strangers).
Having not played or picked up a club since his hockey injury at the end of May, Divot fired off a 275 yard drive down the right-hand side of the first hole ruff, flirting with danger and the green! Signs were already pointing to a good round as he chipped on the green and 2 putted for par. Nassau, put her second shot in a pond along the left-hand side which too was indicative of her round to come.

Even with the temperature at 32° and the humidex hovering at about 40° four brave hung-over golfers; Sandy Bitterloadediuk, Nassau Ruff, Janhit O'Faughch and Bogey Morklubb met at Caughnawaga on Sunday July 16th to drink and drive, whack the little white thing and exorcise their personal golf demons.
For Sandy and Bogey this was a return to the site where they recorded their life-time best scores: 91 and 90 respectively.
The sun beat down on the roofs of their carts as they drove the ball and the course recording the usual numbers: bogey, double bogey, 1-putt, 2-putt and Janhit (3-putt) O'Faughch 3-putting the first three holes.
