 | How to Coordinate
2700 Volunteers With Relative Ease
by Stephanie Morgan, Columbus Wired
Meeting Paula Haines, one would assume that she’s simply
hanging out for an afternoon with a few friends. Her calm
demeanor and quick smile don’t offer the slightest hint that
she’s the 2003 Chairman of the Women’s Division of the
Memorial Tournament Committee charged with the responsibility
of coordinating over 2700 volunteers during Memorial
Tournament Week...more

by Stephanie Morgan, Columbus Wired
Joni Gossett is caddying this week for her brother. Of
course, crowd speculation this week usually puts her as either

Wasn’t Asked About Annika Today?

Under The Radar: Perry Pulls into Lead, Not Looking for
Superstar Status
by Stephanie Morgan, Columbus Wired Columnist
Yesterday, it seemed like this tournament would belong to the
under-thirty set. What a difference a day makes. Today, it is
a forty-two-year-old Kenny Perry that shot a 68 today for an
impressive two-round 11-under-par lead. This is not unfamiliar
territory to Perry. However,last week’s win at The Colonial
was overshadowed by Annika Sorenstam’s appearance. Listening
to Perry, that was just fine by him...more

prior record as the player with the most money won in his
first two seasons on tour...more

Balance After Winning the Masters
by Stephanie Morgan, Columbus Wired
Fresh off of the practice round, Mike Weir is seemingly
unfazed by his Defending Masters Champion status. In coming to
The Memorial, Weir has been concentrating on his putting game.
Today’s practice with Jack Nicklaus was a chance to get an
even better idea of the changes made to this year’s course.
While most may assume that constant practice was high on
Weir’s list after The Masters, what Weir found most important
was taking time off to spend with his family...more

| Predictions: We predict
one of the following walking away with this year's title.
Obviously, the first choice is Tiger. We also think that
David Duval, Justin Leonard, Jim Furyk or Vijay Singh will be
at the top of the leader board...Stephanie Morgan likes Mike
Weir to win.
