It's About Time...

But David Duval is finally back playing great golf. After a strong performance at the Dunlop Pheonix late last year in Japan, today he shot a bogey-free 63 in the Sony Open in Hawaii today. It has been a long road back for the former number 1 player- as he has struggled with injuries, a break-up with his fiance, and a malaise about the game of golf and his place in it. Following his first major win, the 2001 British Open, he seemed to look around from golf's mountaintop and ask "Is this all there is?" Since then, he has married into a family, inheriting three children, and late last year had the first of his own. He says now he wants to play well for his children, who have never seen him play well.

Life, unlike golf, has never been easy for Duval. It looks like now, with his life happier than it's ever been, golf is coming back to. I wish him the best.
