Boo Weekley aka Happy Gilmore



First of all its about time the US won the Ryder Cup. Been since 1999 since this last happened. Not only did the US team band together and play as a TEAM for once, but a few fresh faces have emerged for American golf. JB Holmes, hitting 373 yd tee shots, Anthony Kim, the next Tiger perhaps? And who can forget the hayseed in the video above. Boo Weekley, who is my age, acts about the same, totally emodies the southern redneck stereotype. He dips on the course, tells funny one-liners, smiles on the course, pokes fun at himself, likes to wear camo hats and shirts. I know the Europeans in all their properness didn't take quite too kindly to Mr. Weekley and his antics this weekend, but they took notice that this boy has some SERIOUS game.

Here is his interview from the 2007 PGA, this is Boo in a nutshell.
