Bowditch: The Real Story

Sometimes numbers lie. If they don’t lie, they certainly don’t tell the whole story. I’ve spent the better part of 2006 using Steven Bowditch’ misfortunes as fodder for at least one blog per month. You’d think I might have dug a little deeper, imagined a reason for Bowditch’ wildly inconsistent play in his first season on the PGA Tour. Fortunately for me, a little trip around the web to my favorite golf sites uncovered the above-linked article on Steven Bowditch. The New Zealander, a stranger in a strange land, had more working against him than I could have imagined. In spite of it all, he persevered. Wherever he plays in 2007, he will be a valuable asset to tour and tournaments alike.
