I've just hit a laura robson

[Deleted member 18121]

A slang name I came up with during wimbledon.....

Wow, that shot was a laura robson = a shot that didnt look much at first but ended up being a bit of a cracker!

 

[Khamelion]

So you must have heard of hitting a Sally Gunnel

:thup:

My personal fave though is watching someone having a "Scott Choke" (in reference to Scott Hoch miserable choke at the 1989 masters, for those who don't know)

Heard the i've hit a "Bubba" -- some crazy shot from a ridiculous spot

It was exactly that which inspired me... made me giggle

The younger members have started calling a Sally, a Christine after miss Ohuruogu.

Just so no-one can consider you a bit too English oriented (though lack spelling skills)

Also applicable as/to as 'Liz McColgan' or 'Sonia O'Sullivan' in Scotland or Ireland resp.

And to add the 'polite' version of the Sister-in-Law shot

The Son-in-Law - Not quite what you had in mind!

Haven't laughed that hard in a long time and not the slightest bit libel too !!

Think I will take some of these to the course on Sunday!!

 

[markgs]

Mt favorite one is a dr hannibal lecter shot, that is looked terrible and was terrible

 

[davidg2010uk]

Thanks for posting Amanda they are hilarious!

 

[richart]

I like someone coming up with something witty and off the cuff on the course, but I find Sally Gunnell's etc contrived and cringeworthy. I am sure others find the terms side splittingly funny, especially the more times they hear them.

 

[JustOne]

A Jimmy Saville - I thought I'd gotten away with that one

 

[rickg]

A "Smiffy"........... Nobbed it!!

 

[Rooter]

A "Smiffy"........... Nobbed it!!
