OMG

OK, it's too early to get excited, and this probably won't last, but Tom Watson is in the lead at the Masters. He's in the clubhouse with a 67. That's only 7 more than his age!

It was amazing enough that he came within a whisker of winning last year's British Open -- and that's a tournament where skill in battling the elements is more important than length off the tee. The Masters requires length.

Once again, it's time to get inspired. If a 60-year-old man can be in the clubhouse leading the Masters, surely there's time for me to learn how to play golf.

Update: OMG2! Now 50-year-old Fred Couples is in the lead, with 60-year-old Tom Watson tied for second!

Jon,

If it weren't for his recent transgressions with the gentler sex, I'd say he wasn't human.

Amazing.
