Moving Images: Sean Foley Blesses Chris Como

Nice work by the Golf Channel cameras to be on the back of Isleworth's driving range and to get a camera in place in between all of the carts parked on the tee (classy!) for the kumbaya moment of former Tiger instructor Sean Foley blessing new Tiger swing "consultant" Chris Como as he embarks on his journey.

Love the hand to the face, nice touch. Reminiscent of Michael and Fredo on New Year's Eve in Cuba.

Didn't kiss him full on the mouth, did he?

Foley would have a very sore set of testicles if he put his hand on my face like that.

You don't do that in a hockey nation, which might explain why he left.

So much for Como keeping a low-profile and not showing up on the range.

More I think about it and from the little we've seen of TW's 'new action' SF didn't do him right. Tried to impart his swing 'method' on TW - didn't work. And SF seems to be a bit full of himself and basking in the limelight. Time will tell if he did TW a dis service.

One other thing...

If Begay is such a trusted friend and hooked up Como with TW where was Begay all along when TW had troubles on and off the course?

Begay, if he was truly a friend and was listened to by TW and TW was forthright w/him especially about his womanizing why didn't Begay step in and save hime - from that and from working with Haney and making all the swing changes, and for being surly and a d*** to everybody.

If Begay had his ear and was smart he would have pulled him aside numerous times and said - what are you thinking? I would've if I was his best bud.

Don't know the inner workings of their relationship but if they were close, Begay could've tried to save to falling of TW.

Foley: "Get ready for the $hitshow Chris. So glad to be done!"

Chris, get ready for internet JO's to pick you apart.

Make sure you do a Dan Jenkins interview, and wear that silly hat Hogan wore so he thinks you're ok.
