Ulster Golfers

Despite my lack of interest in Sport generally, there are a few exceptions. These include the Olympic Games, the Commonwealth Games, major snooker tournaments, Wimbledon, world darts and boxing.

I invariably enjoy the annual United States Masters Golf championship, held at that fabulous golf course in Augusta, Georgia. I never fail to be astonished at the virtual perfection of that course, where even the needles of the pine trees appear to be manicured.

I've been following the progress of the Ulster golfers with particular interest; viz. Graeme McDowell, who finished off at seventeenth position with -3. Hopefully he'll continue to go from strength to strength.

Young Rory McIlroy did very well, too.
