Day 22: Gladstone and other thoughts..

Should Dustin Johnson be on suicide watch? Back in June, he led the US Open by 3 shots heading into the final round, only to shoot an 82 in one of the worst collapses ever. Then yesterday, he heads to the 18th at the PGA Championship, with a 1 shot lead and par to win...and he grounds his club in a bunker, which is against the rules, and therefore costs himself the tournament.

2 blown major championship opportunities in 3 months.

Yes, golf is a cruel game. And I have found that out time and time again as we are 22 days into the 30/30 trip.

I'll tell you right now, by the end of next Tuesday(Day 30), my golf game will not have improved at all.

How can that be?? You just played for 30 days in a row!!

I won't get into all the factors at this time (that's for the book), but the simple fact is that playing for 30 straight days is not the way to improve, as hard as that may seem to believe.

For now, here's another frustrating video of a frustrating hole that just makes no sense and makes me want to take a 5 iron and bash it over someone's head.
