Condolences to the family and friends of Mr.Ballesteros. I'm not sure if Lynn's friend Mr.Jimenez checks in here often, but my thoughts are with you and the other Spaniards playing in Europe today.

I could be wrong. I have been before, and will be again.
The two things I remember most about Seve is the par from the parking lot and then that second shot in the water at augusta when Jack won.
What a great guy, wore his heart on his sleeve. Need more like him.
I hope Phil wins this week I know he loved Seve.
At the Ryder Cup at PGA National I saw Seve, with an impossible stance and lie in a bunker, hit it 245 yards to geenside on the 18th. Many pros said it was the greatest shot they ever saw.
Sadly, with all the make overs it designed out of the course.
Man I loved watching that guy play golf. What a set of hands. You know his book "Natural Golf" was really good......got to dig that up and post a few things for you guys. There are some very TGM like ideas there in as I recall. Golf as a right armed game, the Right Arm Takeaway.........
I saw him play at the Irish Open in '94 .... he was searching for a swing but his short game was still insanely good.
Thanks for this Kev. He shone so brightly and then he was gone.
Back in the day when I was a video producing machine for LBG, Lynn sent me an old tape of Homer that included footage of Seve. I have to admit spending a lot of time enjoying those clips of Seve in his prime.
It's very tempting to carve out time, dig into the archive and put in the effort on behalf of a legend.
I'm finishing up a Uni degree and graduating in a few weeks, maybe after the dust settles a bit.

Congratulations! Buckle down Ben, and get 'er done! I say this having just finally finished another degree and knowing that golf feels much better with that chore put to rest.
