It's Masters Sunday...Old Bull, Young Bull...No Bull

Sun, 2011-04-10 12:54

Sunday at the Masters in Augusta 2011 features a 21 year old leader in Rory McILroy, looking for his first major championship win, and to be the youngest to ever wear the green jacket; teeing off with a four shot lead over his final pairing partner, and former Masters champion Angel Cabrera, who is thirty years his senior. Will the young bull keep his composure, and withstand the pressure to hold his lead to go on to victory, or will the old bull help nudge him off the top of the hill before the day is done...or will someone else come from back in the pack to wind up wearing the green jacket?

At the time of this posting, McIlroy had just bogeyed the first hole, while Cabrera made par...so the lead is down to three over Cabrera, but Charl Schwartzel, playing in the group one hole ahead of them had passed Cabrera, and moved to just two strokes behind the leader McILroy.

No matter how this plays out, there will be lessons to be learned about responding under pressure, what to do when the bad breaks come, for both Team Bogey's Next Generation, and Vintage Team Bogey as well. One thing is for sure, Niether the young bull or the old bull will be able to get by on just bull...they will just have to Keep Battlin'.

Oh, and lest we forget...the bulls are also being stalked by a Tiger???
