The Uncanny Similarities Between Tiger And Charlie Woods (As Per National Geographic)

-

The phrase “a chip of the old block” gets used more than enough one might say. It has become hackneyed, so to speak.

But one cannot help but apply it to one Charlie Woods. And to do so would be fair and accurate without putting much thought into it.

The youngster is all but his old man Tiger in his style of play, technique and mannerism. This was as plain as day during the 2023 Father/Son Challenge, more commonly known as the PNC Championship at the Ritz-Carlton. 


Several videos on the internet have gone into depth either seriously or tongue-in-cheek about Tiger and Charlie Woods’ similarities. Charlie and his sister Sam Alexis were born to Woods and his ex-wife Elin Nordegren.


As per the reliable and always-accurate Wikipedia, the PNC Challenge is an annual golf tournament for two-player teams, consisting of PGA Tour and Champions Tour golfers and (usually) their sons.

Rantings From The Weekend: Rugby

South African Rugby Fans Can Never Be Pleased You can never fully please a South African rugby fan, can you? While a lot of us were satisfied with a remarkable draw against the greatest team on earth, trust some among us to find fault with the tie against the mighty All Blacks. The Boks were not favourites to win last Saturday, but were at least expected to make a fist of proceedings, which they duly did. In fact, they should have won were it not for a lack of composure. However, fans who cynically accuse us of “celebrating” a draw are being highly disingenuous! Not long ago, the All Blacks were pasting their archenemy by an average of 50 points a match, but now clashes against the Boks are being decided by two or less points! Furthermore, the draw put South Africa in pole position to win the truncated 2019 Rugby Championship. Imagine if they had lost! The Springboks Are Blessed With Depth Who in their right mind – ahead of the 2018 international rugby season

If football peaks after this one then it will the greatest peak of all time! South African football is that gift that keeps on giving. This time it was the turn of Skepe Nketole to give tot the world the absolutely absurd! The team arrived for the 2023 Philly’s Games spectacularly in a helicopter for their encounter against Alex Cheese FC. This remarkable and unexpected arrival delayed the game by 15 minutes as the ‘bird’ landed on a gravel football pitch in the township of Ivory Park in Midrand, north of Johannesburg. A video of this spec actor is now doing the rounds on social media as tongues wag over the madness. The Philly’s Games are one of several tournaments that take place during the festive period around South Africa. Traditionally, they serve as entertainment while the local football season is in recess during the Christmas and New Year’s Day celebrations. They are also a platform for unseen wannabe-pros to be scouted should the opportunity arise. Also, it’s where unserious

South Africans React To SABC's AFCON 2023 Coup On SuperSport (Multichoice)

The South African sports landscape is in upheaval, as if an earthquake has just struck it. The sports world is coming to terms with the fact that SuperSport (parent company = Multichoice) will not be broadcasting the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations starting on Saturday, 13 January in the Ivory Coast. Instead, and one cannot stress this hard enough, SABC Sport will SHOCKINGLY be broadcasting the tournament where Bafana Bafana will make a welcome return after missing the 2021 event in Cameroon. SABC News gleefully reported that it will air all 52 matches of the 34th edition Africa's showcase footballing event. Naturally, the amazing, unforeseen and life-altering news caused a buzz for the ages on social media, whether it was skepticism or joy. We have selected a few choice quotes related to this development. @kabelomolekwa said: "Dear fellow South Africans, please, let us pay our TV license. What SABC did to us is really massive. It's only R265 per year. They deserve something af
