Billy Foster on Masters breakfast

......but I have a feeling he'd give up after 2 holes after having to line up putts!

He'd have walked before then........like when you asked for a read on the putting green!!
 
Billy's a top man.

He did an after dinner speech at our presentation evening and was great, he did a Q & A afterwards for a good 40 minutes (when he could get a word in edgewise, with StuC). Very funny, also.
 
I'd love to see Billy Foster on Rory McIlroys bag, I think the two of them would be the most formidable force in golf. Not sure if Foster would be prepared to move to the states though!
 
Which tale gets the biggest laugh on the after-dinner speaking tour? You guessed it, a Seve one.

“He was playing with Tony Johnson in Holland, Noordwijk, seventh hole. It’s a blind tee shot over the hill and a dog-leg around the corner. They both tee off. One ball ends up blocked by a tree, the other is five yards further on with a clear shot to the green.

“Tony walks to the ball behind the tree, sees a sprinkler about two yards away, goes across and stretches his foot way out. ‘Seve, I’m stood on this sprinkler. Is there any chance of a free drop?’ Seve walks across and says: ‘Tony, my friend, I cannot give you a drop, it’s not your natural stance. I’m really sorry, my friend, but I can’t.’

“Tony said: ‘Good. That’s your ball. Mine is up there’.”


:clap:

Possibly.

JP is a decent caddy but perhaps doesn't have the same charisma is Billy, doesn't make JP a bad caddy though.
 
What was the story bout him biting his knuckles to stop him from laughing? Just switched on when he was telling the story bout it.

That was the one about Tiger Woods hitting the ground with his driver so far behind the ball that Billy "could have laid down a planted a headstone" in the gap. Billy said he was almost drawing blood he was biting down that hard on his knuckles. Apparently Woods topped it badly, made a mess of his second and third then sank a huge putt for par. He also said it was the best par save he'd seen.

was this when Tiger was his employer?
 
Billy was great. Loved the little impressions of Seve he dropped into his anecdotes. Great fun and a very welcome light relief to all the serious stuff going on.
