Thought some of you golfers might appreciate this story on my younger brother. Don't know if I'd been able to do the same. http://www.timesdaily.com/article/20080509/NEWS/805090319

I read about this yesterday, and almost posted it here. That is very cool... Michael Thompson (UA golfer) did something very similar at the Master's a few weeks ago.

That was a very honorable thing your brother did KK, and I commend him for it. It's always best to do the right thing, even in the toughest situations. In that situation, I would like to think I would react the same way. Golf is a game that requires great skill, consistency, and honesty. I like to think everyone that plays the game should at least have the last one. He's a credit to golf players everywhere.

Thats tough Crying or Very sad ....He will learn a valuable lesson of keeping his score (along with his competitors) and then making sure they match up at the end of the round.

A rule often confused in golf is that you are only responsible for the correct hole by hole score. (not the addition) you technically dont even have to total your scorecard up.
