Monday Scramble: Our Holiday Gift Guide!

Welcome to the Monday Scramble, still unthankful this week for those who don’t fix their ball marks.

On the other hand, we are extremely thankful for all of our hardworking interns who helped put together our inaugural Monday Scramble Holiday Golf Gift Guide (MSHGGG), just in time for Black Friday and the biggest shopping day of the year.

(If you find a site with a better list of holiday golf gifts, we’ll help stuff you into a cannon and shoot you over the gates into Augusta National.)

Tom Watson Wins British Open Highlights DVD

Description: Still unhappy with how this year’s British Open ended? Don’t worry. This alternate-ending highlights video doesn’t even show one shot by Stewart Cink (which is actually only like five less than ABC showed during the Sunday broadcast).

As used by Michelle Wie at the Lorena Ochoa Invitational.
