If you’re going for chip shot, use a #9 iron or a pitching wedge. Also, use Bain de Soleil SPF 4.

Geez, I thought golf was boring before. Combining it with ‘competitive tanning’ takes it to new depths. Zzzzzzz…

Now there’s a point of view you definitely aren’t likely to see on the Golf Channel anytime soon. However, he never seemed to have expressed an opinion on tanning so can we assume he was in favor of it?

I like watching golf. At least I can tell what’s going on, and if I don’t, that conspirital-voiced announcer will tell me. I usually have a favorite player, and just watch the last three holes or so, with my husband a wing man to alert me to the game’s progress.I actually watched the Whistling Straits tournament live in Wisconsin, and my fave won! – Veejay Singh.

I waiting for the Prince Albert storyline.

I like this bit. It’s clever how he combines the two tourneys, and name-dropping the tan leaders: George Hamilton, Sonny Bono, Gerald Ford…

Most courses make you wear a shirt.

He had better get that hair off his neck, if you ask me.

@corzakYou don’t…like my comments?

They could have run the strips about the Iran Hostage Crisis but nobody wants to relive that.

But Zonker was so serious about the tanning. It was a strange little obsession. But just wait for the big stars… like George Hamilton.

Is he still alive?
