TOM IS SUCH A GOOD EGG

Tom Watson honours his memory by placing an egg salad sandwich on the tee.

Saturday April 7,2012
By Daily Express Reporte

EVERY year since his long-time caddie Bruce Edwards passed away, Tom Watson honours his memory by placing an egg salad sandwich on the tee at Augusta’s par-five 13th.

Edwards began working for Watson in 1973 and was with him until 1989 before switching to Greg Norman.

He returned to Watson’s side in 1992 but in 2003 Edwards was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (or Lou Gehrig’s disease).

With Edwards on the bag Watson captured the 1977 and 1981 Masters. And on every occasion Edwards arrived on Augusta’s 13th tee he would pull an egg salad sandwich out of the golf bag.

Edwards died aged 49 on the eve of the 2004 event, Watson learning of the news just before teeing off the following day.

The tradition, however, lives on.

[Liverpel]

McIlroy double-bogeys the first again.

[Chazza]

Maybe not so geared up for Rory he is having a shocker,

17 players within 3 shots of the lead, Harrington within 2 after 4 birdies in a row

[Chazza]

Jimenez gone to pieces aswell

Mickelson to -4 I hate that cunt

[Shaggy]

Crazy this.

[RichC]

Mickelson is looking good, not a fan at all!

[Chazza]

[Buzzo]

Mickelson on fire.

[Shaggy]

How good is this, amazing rounds from Hanson and Mickelson.

[Alex]

I have a hatred of Mickleson that I've never been able to explain. I'd love to punch him in his stupid face.

[ChesterDave]

He does have a remarkably punchable face.
