Steve Stricker

Wow, congratulations to Steve on an amazing return to golf after his rather abrupt illness last year following the Ryder Cup event.  For a brief period, he didn't know if he would ever be able to return to tour golf.  But return he has in the last 3 weeks, and today picked up his 4th major victory on the Champions Tour at the Regions Traditions

Me too.  He was quite emotional during the interview and a much of that undoubtedly was the recent health scare.  Thy said he lost almost 30 lbs. last fall. Hopefully that's all behind him. Keep an eye on Padraig... he's still got tons of game and I get the sense he's just about to find another gear on this tour.

If Paddy win a major, I'm sure he will completely redo his swing.

Same here, got to follow him around TPC Boston years ago, it was a great time. Also was still young enough that got close on a Tiger tee shot was well, but he was way out of it that year.
