TEEING OFF

Swing thought

Your only thought with the driver should be about shoulder
turn. On the backswing, think about turning your left
shoulder to your chin, and turning your right shoulder to
your chin on the downswing. Too many golfers let the chin
go to the shoulder; always let the shoulder go to the
chin.

PRO REPORT

Montgomerie Doubtful for PGA Championship

GLENEAGLES, Scotland � Colin Montgomerie pulled out of
the Johnnie Walker Championship on Thursday because of
a hand injury and may miss next week's PGA Championship.

Montgomerie, playing for the first time since finishing
runner-up at last month's British Open, hurt the fingers
of his right hand on a shot off the 18th fairway in the
first round. He planned to have X-rays after returning
to London later Thursday.

His Ryder Cup teammate David Howell also pulled out
injured at Gleneagles, saying he too may miss next
week's major at Baltusrol.

"Hopefully I can rest up over the next three or four
days and manage to go to America on schedule. If not,
I won't," Montgomerie said. "I hurt both my index
finger and my middle finger. All three middle fingers
have all bruised and swollen up."

Montgomerie said his grip slipped at the top of his
swing.

"It's got to be one of the worst shots I've ever hit,"
he said.

Howell withdrew after Wednesday's pro-am because of an
abdominal muscle injury which he believes he sustained
during the U.S. Open in June. He withdrew from that
event and has not played since.

Howell said he felt he could not play five straight days
and was doubtful whether he would play at next week's
PGA, adding that he may target a return at the following
week's NEC Invitational in Akron, Ohio.

"It's going to be touch and go. We will have to wait and
see," Howell said.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

"Am I emotional? Certainly. How can I not be? I was on
the Champions Tour or seniors tour for 25 years and I
feel very fortunate to have lived long enough to do
that. That has a lot of sentiment to it." � Arnold
Palmer after his final round in a major.
