i'll be shooting a 106 tomorrow...



AUGUSTA, Ga. -- He didn't putt a ball into the creek.
Billy Casper can at least make that claim. Otherwise, he didn't have much on Tiger Woods on Thursday.
Fact is, he didn't have much on anybody who's ever picked up a golf club. Casper shot a 106, which may have been the worst round since the invention of math.
With six holes to go, he'd already shot his age. That's 73.
The way things were going, he might have shot his weight. That's 240, even after dropping 60 pounds.
Casper's 16th hole was so bad, there literally is no word for it. His first five shots went into the water on the par-3. He finished 11-over.
What is that, elevenski-bogey? From now on, it will simply be known as a Casper.
He didn't sign his scorecard, which meant he was disqualified for not posting a score. The 106 will not go down as the worst Masters score ever.
Somewhere, Charles Kunkle, who shot a 95 in 1956, must be three-putting in his grave. Somewhere, Jack Kervorkian was thinking he should have been caddying for Casper.
About 106 one-liners immediately came to mind about Billy. It's always funny until somebody gets killed. And nobody was killed, right?
