not a bad year :roll:

I suppose when you practise 8 hours a day, sooner or later you'd have to get it right :lol:

What does the birdie conversion statistic mean? Is it birdies per green in regulation?

Mate, if I could be as good as VJ by practising 8 hours a day, I'd gladly give up my day job ... :lol: It's awesome how VJ has peaked at his age. Gives me hope that my best golf is yet to come ... :wink:

BTW, I've started having lessons from a pro at my home course. He's very good and teaches with video. I've had two lessons so far, and I'm beginning to see some good changes in my swing. I plan on having a lesson every 6 to 8 weeks. Does VJ have a coach?

Number of Eagles @ 17...

Geoff Ogilvy ties him for that stat... :wink:

I thought 17 was quite a low number...esp for someone as long as Vj is... :shock:
