I am sure many of you tuned into the men's US Open this weekend. What an amazing tournament!! I saw so many incredible shots. I was actually there today for a few hours to entertain some Lexus guests. It was fun to experience the excitement and feel the atmosphere. As you know, tomorrow there will be a playoff between Tiger and Rocco. The most dominant guy will battle against possibly the oldest Open winner of all time. It will be exciting. Will Tiger's knee hold up and will Rocco continue to have a blast? I wish I could watch this battle, but I am in Salt Lake City with Dean Wilson and many other professionals for Johnny Miller's charity tournament......to bad our host will still be at Torrey Pines. Go Tiger!!
luv ya ,annika, your biggest fan! matt

Playing with Dean must bring back some great memories for the two of you. A lot less stress for you these two days, right?
Good luck to you and Lotta.

Annika, wish you could have watched the Open instead of all those work things! Actually, I wish you would have been in it! Can you imagine a playoff with you and Tiger? I can. You two are the monarchs of the golfing world. And let me say again THANK YOU for coming out to the Safeway Classic in August in Oregon! It makes my year to be able to see you play there! It will be a great Major for you at your U.S. Open.

Wow... if I had known you were at Torrey Pines on Sunday, I would have been hanging around the Lexus tent to see/meet you. Instead I watched all the action by Tiger and Rocco in front of my TV since I felt it was the best place to see all the great shots. San Diego is a great city and I hope when you are in town again, you'll let all your local fans here know!

Hello Annika!
Glad to hear you got to see some of the tournament - it was unbelievable. The Lexus guests were lucky to have you.
What a tremendous tournament - the whole way was just amazing - it didn't matter what day you went.
We followed Tiger and Phil on Thursday...we were there for Phil's quad and Tiger's eagle on 13 on Saturday and we were in the 18 green grandstands for Rocco's and Tiger's putts on Sunday evening to extend the tourney - so for my first PGA event - AWESOME!
But...we our hearts remain with the women's tour - we'll be catching 3 tournaments in a row in October - Half Moon Bay, Blackhawk and Maui!
Hope we see you there.

Wow, Tiger is out for the year and played the U.S. Open with stress fractures in his tibia. Soon he'll have reconstructive ACL surgury on his knee, and doctors say he should be able to come back with no long term effects. The best of everything to Tiger, at least he can enjoy his daughter during his rehab. I can't wait for him to come back.

I had the pleasure of working with Rocco several times at the Ocean Reef club when he came in for lessons, he IS as cool as they get!!!
Great show Tiger and Rocco.....

Hi Annika,
You should host a party for Tiger, Annika. It would be neat as one statesman would be honoring the other. There could be plenty of cake and ice cream and even cookies in the shape of a Tiger. I know people would look to you, Annika, for guidance in throwing such an event.
Thanks,
LaDonne
