My biggest thrill was playing with Jack Nicklaus and Tom Watson in the Senior British Open at Turnberry. A book, CD and DVD for a Desert Island? Book would be some sort of thriller, CD would be Take That and DVD The Magnificent Seven

I only use white tees, and I don’t use balls with a 2 on them. And I always use white balls and white gloves
