But first a couple of winners from our recent Talk Birdie To Me research study....drumroll.... Congrats to David Lindsay from Adelaide who has won 300 bucks to spend on a new pair of FootJoy's, and Simon Tagg from Sydney who has scored $300 to spend at the Golf Clearance Outlet! Well done fellas, and thanks for everyone who took part in our questionnaire, plenty of good things to take out of it, and plenty for us to improve....we appreciate you taking the time. Now, onto the Monday Mini. Wolfpacker Craig has written in saying that this week is the anniversary of one of his all time fave golfing memories....the 2006 US Open, Nick O'Hern stalking the field and shooting the lights out on the Sunday, Phil Mickelson melting down, Colin Montgomerie falling away on the final day, and Geoff Ogilvy coming home with the chocolates. Just an incredible tournament to watch where scoring low was at a premium that weekend. Nick talks us through the first 3-days, and then in detail what happened on the sunday, saying that the course was 'brutally tough', and that there was carnage happening everywhere. He talks through where it went wrong for Monty, and for Mickelson. And then we look at some of Nick's figures. He finished T6, which is impressive by any standard, however whilst he has very fond memories he does recall that as his one chance to win a major, which he let get away. A fantastic Monday Mini with some wonderful memories of 2006. We're live from Titleist and FootJoy HQ thanks to our great partners: Hostplus, Talk Birdie To Me's official retirement partner BMW, luxury and comfort for the 19th hole; Titleist, the #1 ball in golf; FootJoy, the #1 shoe and glove in g…","meta_description":"It's US Open week for the Men and today's Monday Mini couldn't come at a better time.....more on that in a sec...
