FanHouse Leif Olsen

Frustrating. That is the only way you can describe Tiger Woods' opening round at the Buick Open. A two-time winner of the event, Woods went out at Warwick Hills on Thursday with two bogeys in his first five holes, it would have been three if not for a 20-foot par save after a plugged bunker lie on the par-4, 4th.

Four birdies over his next nine holes got Woods back in the picture on a premium scoring day, but a bogey on 15, a failed birdie chance on the par-5 16th after a perfect drive and a missed five-footer for birdie on 17 left Woods, yet again, talking about missed opportunities.

Leif Olsen isn't a "household name." Of course, the Canadian Open isn't a "household tournament" in the sense that a lot of average sports fans probably didn't watch it. Those that did, however, were treated to some awesomeness. First, Mark Calcavecchia set a PGA record with nine straight birdies on Friday and then on the same day, Olsen won a BMW Z4 roadster with his hole-out at 15 (one of four people to do so there). But his ace was different: his ball lands, gets some serious spin and then richochets off his playing partner's ball and into the hole. Just ridiculous, really.
