Golf Bloggers get together for a round while Winter Olympics get in the way

When golf bloggers get together, what happens? Well, in the case of Luke Swilor and MediaGuru, you get six birdies and three eagles!

Seems the two got together for a round of golf, and while the professional Luke ended up winning, the Guru gave as well as he took.

“It was probably about 35 degrees when we teed off. We started on the back 9 first. We both reached the par 5 in two (I hit an easy 5 iron and Luke probably hit a wedge or 9). Luke was almost as shocked as I was when I rolled in about a 60+ foot putt for EAGLE! Luke made birdie,” wrote the Guru (Luke called it an 80-footer, by the way).

At Bogey Lounge they’re looking forward to the start of the LPGA season and look to a USAToday story that says Paula Creamer may be on her way to being the tour’s top star.

Miranda at Even Par Round is one of the golf bloggers trying to combine watching Olympics with golf. It’s OK, Miranda, the Winter Games only come every four years.

Come to the north, where the winter golf olympics occur every time the ground freezes. Talk about long drives!

You should have seen the look on Luke's face when that 60/80 footer went in!
