Proves once again that internet memes are not always ranked high on the IQ scale (but they are always entertaining), the most sought after video on Google today, "Tiger Woods Speed Park" clip to show Tiger Woods break wind at 2009 Buick Open.
There will also be among the most viewed You Tube videos ... if the PGA had not chosen to remove the most popular version of the clip because of copyright infringement. Do not want to tarnish the prestige tournament in the PGA has also neglected to upload video to You Tube channel, the official PGA site, and thus miss the attention received by the most viral moment of the whole event.
It is a fun, shared moments that are bound to be passed around: copyright should reap those benefits? All in all, it smells a missed opportunity.

Janzen takes share of the lead
He carded a seven-under 64 to claim a share of first place in the John Deere Classic. Janzen, winner of the 1998 US Open but without a title since, collected birdies on the 16th and 17th holes, but fell back into a tie with Darron Stiles as he found the sand on the 18th to collect his only bogey of the day. The pair sit one shot ahead of JJ Henry, Matt Bettencourt and Dean Wilson. Kenny Perry is part of an 18-man group tied for 24th at three under, while US Open champion Lucas Glover is among those at two under. England's Greg Owen and Brian Davis are part of the group tied for 10th place at four under par.
Lee Janzen is well-placed to win his first PGA Tour event in 11 years.

Weir within striking distance at U.S. Open
Mike Weir charged out of the gate Saturday morning, but still remains two shots back of first-place Ricky Barnes after the leaders completed their second rounds at the U.S. Open in Farmingdale, N.Y. The Bright's Grove, Ont., native birdied three of his first four holes on the back nine to launch himself into a three-way tie for the lead at 7 under par at the time. But after a bogey on 16 and a Barnes birdie at the eighth hole, Weir fell two shots back of the lead and now sits in third place, still well within striking distance of the title. Weir, who finished his second round at an even-par 70, started play on the 10th hole. He bogeyed the ninth, his last hole on Friday, before play was suspended due to darkness. Barnes, the 2002 U.S. amateur champion, established a new 36-hole scoring record at the U.S. Open with a 132, good for 8 under par, as a few golfers took advantage of a Bethpage Black course that was rendered toothless after a Thursday deluge softened the greens and fairways. Lucas Glover is in second place at 7 under and shot a 64 in his second round, tying Weir's first-round score. Weir, who led after the opening round, is three shots ahead Azuma Yano, Peter Hanson and a resurgent David Duval, all at 3 under. Glover and Weir came within one stroke of matching the best round ever in any of golf's major championships. Another Canadian, amateur Nick Taylor of Abbotsford, B.C., shot a scorching 5 under in his second round and sits 2 under for the tournament. Calgary's Stephen Ames is at even par. London, Ont.'s Andrew Parr! is 4 ov er and still has to complete his second round. The Thursday rain forced golfers to try to finish the first three rounds on Friday and Saturday, but with more rain forecasted for Saturday afternoon it's looking more likely that the major tournament will be decided after the weekend. Defending champ Tiger Woods still has 54 holes to play. He started his second round at 10:06 a.m. ET Saturday, having shot a 4-over 74 in his first go-around on the course. Phil Mickelson sits at 1 under par after his second round.

The chicken or the egg...???
golf instructor from when the youngster was ten years old and throughout the next couple of decades. At various times after 1950, Mr. Grout instructed Ray Floyd, Lanny Wadkins and a whole slew of other big-name PGA professionals. Prior to 1950, Jack Grout merely instructed people whose names you would not know.
Butch Harmon instructed Tiger Woods
from ages fifteen to twenty-five and now has Phil Mickelson, Ernie Els and a nifty list of the best in the world in his stable of golfers. His father was none other than Claude Harmon, Sr., long-time head pro at Winged Foot Country Club and considered since the 1940's as one of the premier instructors of golf on the globe. By the way, he (Claude) also won the 1948 Masters Tuna-Mint.
Harvey Penick wrote my favorite golf instruction publication,
"Little Red Book." ! I could open any page and learn something, if not about golf, about life. In Texas in the early to mid-sixties, he taught golf to a couple of knuckleheads named Crenshaw and Kite. Because they both chose golf, his fame was cemented for eternity.
Scioto Country Club, located in Heather Jones' hometown in Ohio, is one of very few courses to host the U.S. Open, the PGA Championship, the Ryder Cup, the U.S. Senior Open and the U.S. Amateur Championship. It was no doubt a plum job when Jack Grout accepted the position of head golf professional. His upscale membership included a Columbus family whose patriarch owned a few local drugstores. The son was a very good athlete and was already playing golf. The teaching techniques Grout learned at various other clubs were used on young Jack Nicklaus and he emerged from the practice range to eventually become arguably the greatest golfer ever .
Who knows? Without Jack Grout, Jack Nicklaus may be a retired pharmacist from Columbus. Or, without Jack Nicklaus, the majority of the world would have never heard of Scioto, let alone its head professional. Same thing with Butch Harmon and Harvey. What if Claude Harmon, Sr. ran a hardware store and Ben Crenshaw and Tom Kite opted for tennis when they were just youngsters?
Do you ever say to yourself, "If I had the N.Y. Yankees, even I could manage them to the World Series every year"? So, I guess being lucky counts at least a little, huh? It also makes you wonder, "Why me, Lord?"

Nordqvist extends lead to two as third round finishes
HAVRE DE GRACE, Maryland (Reuters) - Swede Anna Nordqvist rolled in a 14-foot birdie putt at the 17th and saved par at 18 to extend her LPGA Championship lead to two strokes on Sunday after completing her weather-halted third round.
Nordqvist, who had three holes left when play was halted on Saturday, moved to 11 under par at Bulle Rock, two better than Australian Lindsey Wright heading into Sunday's last round.
Wright parred her remaining three holes to stand at nine under par, two shots ahead of South Koreans Choi Na-yeon and Pak Jin-young.
Eight players had to return to finish the third round.
The tall Nordqvist doubled her lead with her downhill birdie putt at 17 but nearly gave a stroke back at the last when her chip on to the green rolled 12 feet away from the cup.
Nordqvist, a former British Amateur champion playing her first major as a professional, rolled in the difficult putt to preserve the two-shot advantage.
"Making that putt feels great," she told Reuters outside the scoring tent.
The former Arizona State University student, who turned 22 on the eve of the championship, said she was not thinking about how big her lead was going into the final round.
"Just focusing on my own game," she said. "If it's one shot or two shots, that's nothing I can do much about."
Wright was happy to get the third round finished.
"I feel pretty good considering I had four-and-a-half, five hours of sleep but that's just how it goes," she said.
"I finished the last three holes -- they're pretty tough holes -- at par, having to come out early, so that's was good."
Nordqvist and Wright, who returned to the course at 0730 local time to resume the third round, will tee off for the final round at 1436 (1836 GMT).
Choi, who was angry that she could not play the 18th on Saturday when play was stopped with her standing on the tee, bogeyed the hole upon her return early on Sunday.
