I'm the wild card, the joker in the deck,
birdie game good including talking worth
It's been just awful. Including the pro-am, I've not made a birdie in 54 holes. Right now, I'm not a very good player. There's nothing in my game that's worth talking about. That's the game. You take your lumps and I'll be back.
