What Was Jim Drinking Last Night?

Thanks to a media member who got this email release last week, and which probably answers the question of what Jim Furyk turned to last night for uh, reassurance.

Good afternoon, my name is Lauren from Taylor PR in New York. Diageo has created a new event between Johnnie Walker and Jim Furyk. It is the “Johnnie Walker Jim Furyk Sweepstakes.” From July 5- September 15, 2007 golf fans can enter online for a chance win a round of golf with one of the best, PGA Tour Stars, Jim Furyk! For more information go to http://www.johnniewalker.com/PlayWithJim. Golf fans can also feel like a Pro on the course this summer by sipping on Jim Furyk’s own signature Johnnie Walker cocktail. This round is on Jim!

Furyk’s Best Ball
1.5 oz. Johnnie Walker Black Label
1tbsp. honey
3 oz. Unsweetened tea
1 wedge lemon

Preparation: Add Johnnie Walker Black Label, honey and unsweetened tea; stir and serve over ice: garnish with lemon wedge.

And voila! All of those flashbacks about the 17th hole go away.

Furyk has got to be sick.

He could be a three time Open champion by now.

You're right, Tuna. Maybe he is so confident with his accuracy off the tee, he thought he could get an easy birdie on 17 and then be able to bogey 18 and still tie or win.

My dad used to call that recipe "little girl's tea" and serve it to me warm when I was sick. True story.

I guess no matter what you call it, it'll cure what ails 'ya.

"Golf fans can also feel like a Pro on the course this summer by sipping on Jim Furyk’s own signature Johnnie Walker cocktail."

Kudos to the copy writer. Just what we need guys doing while playing golf to make them "feel like a Pro".

Maybe Jim's Juice gave him false courage on 17 tee yesterday.
