Tiger Woods in Nepal
Tiger
Woods, in need of a well-earned rest, flew off to Nepal. But like any golfer on
holiday, he had of course to try the local links - a mountainous course
situated high in the Himalayas. The club was delighted to welcome him but desolated that they couldn't provide a caddie as the Sherpas who usually attended were on an Everest expedition.
However, they assured him they could provide a yak who would serve very well instead.
"Sahib Woods," assured the secretary, "this animal is of inestimable value but you have to watch out for him as he does like to sit on golf balls. It is, however, no problem as you have merely to reach under him and remove the ball. The yak will then continue on with the caddying."
Forewarned and only slightly perturbed, Tiger set out. Over the first eight holes he had only had to remove the ball from beneath the sitting yak twice. Then on the ninth hole he had to drive the ball blind over a rocky outcrop. The yak took off after it and Tiger followed the yak. He caught up with it beyond the rocks. It was sitting in a water hazard - right up to its neck.
Tiger stripped off and dived in the icy water to rescue his ball. He groped around under the yak but could not feel it at all. He surfaced, took another deep breath and tried again. Still nothing. Almost frozen, he tried again but with the same result. Finally he gave up and frozen to the bone made his way back to the clubhouse.
"Hey fella, what's going on?" He explained to the secretary how he had dived three times for his ball but that the yak refused to move. He told the man how he couldn't find his ball and was almost frozen to death in the process.
"And" he went on " that bloody yak is still sitting out there in the water hazard"
"Oh a thousand apologies". The secretary was very apologetic, "I forgot to tell you. The yak also likes to sit on fish"
Who do you think you are
Jesus and
Arnold Palmer were playing golf. It's Arnold's turn to tee off, and he does so.
It's a long drive straight up the fairway, and he's about a five iron off the
green. "Not bad," Jesus says. A Jesus step up to tee off, but His
drive slices badly and lands on an island in the middle of a water hazard.
Jesus calmly walks across the water to take his next shot. "Jesus!" yells Palmer, "Who do you think you are, Jack Nicklaus?"
Why are these Americans good at golf
Did
you know that O.J. Simpson, Monica Lewinsky, Ted Kennedy, and President Bill
Clinton are all avid golfers?
O.J.'s
a slicer, Monica's a hooker, Ted Kennedy can't drive over water, and Clinton
can't seem to hit the right hole!
Arnold Palmer & Tiger Woods
Arnold
Palmer and Tiger Woods are playing the 16th hole, when Tiger's tee shot lands
behind a huge, 100 foot fir tree. Tiger looks at Arnie and says, "How
would you play this one? Lay up and take the extra stroke?"Arnold replies: "When I was your age, I'd just play right over this tree."
Tiger, not wanting to be shown up by ol' Arnold Palmer, proceeds to hit the ball high, but not high enough. It bounces off the tree and lands out of bounds. Tiger, really ticked at this point, asks Arnold how he EVER hit a ball over that tree.
Arnold replied: "Well, when I was your age, that tree was only three feet tall."
