Old news.
For those of you who didn't see any of it, Jim Furyk won the tournament for the second year in a row. Beat Vijay by one stroke.
Man, the Canadian Open has certainly fallen on hard times in the last few years. Lost Bell Canada as their primary sponsor, they started scheduling it in September and nobody came and this year it was wedged between the Open and the PGA Championship.
Props to CBS for their coverage. They were gushing about Canada more than Canadians do and their cameras did a "Tiger" on Mike Weir. Pretty funny.
I'll tell you one thing: the Canadian fans love Vijay.

Didn't Ian Woosnam do something like this several years ago when his caddy put 15 clubs in the bag and cost him a couple penalty strokes?

Not during the round, but a couple of weeks later.
And it was during the British Open when Woosie was near the lead entering the final round.

It was the 2001 British Open, and the firing came two weeks later after the caddie overslept and missed a tee time.
Woosnam finished in third place at the British, four shots behind David Duval. The extra club cost him two shots, one for each hole he had the extra driver in his bag. He was working with a couple of different drivers on the driving range.

That's funny -- I went to college with Williamson. He didn't play golf in college -- was an all-NESCAC catcher nicknamed "The Hammer" who also had a Happy Gilmore-esque slap shot playing for the DIII Trinity College Bantams.
Was on the Nationwide Tour this year, then got a sponsor's exemption to play in Hartford (home of Trinity) had been playing great since then.

The replacement was given golf balls for his pay?
How about a little something, you know, for the effort?

the article says after Mollet realized he was fired, he deposited 12 of Williamson's new balls in the lake. Wow!
