Kenny Perry cruised to his 2nd victory of the 2005 season today at the Bank of America Colonial. His 7 shot victory wasn’t in doubt at any point today. Perry just plain schooled the rest of the tour this week. Here’s a guy in his mid 40’s knocking the ball an average of 327.9 and hitting 77.8% of his greens. Smokin’. The guys at Taylor Made are going to love that.
CBS had some great sponsors for the Colonial. I just loved the rather lengthy 2 minute spot for the “Celtic Woman” CD/DVD. I bet a ton of the (primarily male) viewers were burning up the phone lines with their orders after that ad. Oh, I better not forget to mention the spot for the “50 Most Loved Hymns” CD. I wonder if that same ad would be running if the likes of Tiger, Phil, Vijay, Ernie etc. were battling each other atop the leaderboard…
