There’s a special circle of sports hell for people who vandalise golf courses. We hope these sadists and sociopaths are doomed to a life of watching their teams lose in overtime and Paul Azinger narrating their every activity. And hopefully the warden downstairs is cooking up something extra special for the clown who wrecked four greens at Timuquana Country Club on Wednesday night, mere hours before Jim Furyk’s PGA Tour Champions tournament, Constellation Furyk and Friends, was set to tee off. Check it out.
I’m hearing that four greens were destroyed overnight at Timuquana CC in Jacksonville. Unclear as to how or why.

Awful stuff. Furyk and Friends has become one of the most vibrant stops on the senior circuit, bringing celebrities, music, local food and, of course, golf together for truly great weekend. Better yet, all proceeds from the event go to Florida charities via the Jim & Tabitha Furyk Foundation. Unfortunately some joker went and wrecked the whole thing for everybody. It’s one thing if you don’t like golf. It’s entirely another to take money out of the pockets of the needy because you don’t like golf.
Anyway, here’s hoping the grounds crew can get things patched up in short order and the event can continue as planned, because we’d hate to see one bad apple ruin the orchard for everybody.
