Morgan Freeman Puts Golf At Top Of List

Tuesday, May 27th, 2008

Morgan Freeman created his own “Bucket List” recently after he stated that of all the things he wanted to do before he died, getting his golf score down was at the top of his list.

“I never expected golf to be its own religion, a kind of spiritual journey. When you’re aiming at the golf ball, it’s the only thing in the universe of any importance. You’re totally alone on the green. Yet it’s not a lonely experience, because the game of golf is a journey that you take with your friends. The bigger point here is that golf is a good metaphor for one’s life. The challenge of golf for me is trying to learn new rules. It’s something you always have to work at; you don’t get perfect at golf. It’s the never-ending quest for betterment.”

Currently, the 70-year old actor shoots about 103.

So, on today’s show, we’ll tell you who it was and we’ll find out if your answer earned you another entry into our computer for our daily drawings.

Speaking of daily drawings, we had our Big Prize drawing yesterday when we gave away a NIKE SQ Sumo Squared 5900 Driver and our winner was one of our female golfers, Heather Hale of Norman, Oklahoma. Congratulations, Heather, and now to claim your new NIKE driver, just send an e-mail to me at keri@golfnow.com within the next 30 days.
