 GOLFER SUPREMACY RANKINGS
Deepak Chopra wins PGA Tour event to spiritualize Golfer Supremacy RankingsBy William K. Wolfrum,
Here at the Golfer Supremacy Rankings, it's hard for us to get to excited about things anymore. We're jaded, somewhat. That's why this week we were thrilled to finally be thrilled. Deepak Chopra won a PGA Tour event. Yes, spiritualist doctor to the woo-woo, Deepak Chopra put all his talents to use in battling out to win the Mercedes-Benz Championship. Seriously, our minds are blown. Just blown. Who'd have thought that an Indian spiritualist could take the title at the Mercedes-Benz Championship? There weren't even odds posted. No one even knew he was playing. But, he obviously pranced about, giving advice, telling parables and making birdies. So why we are admittedly not fond of Dr. Chopra's brand of feel-goodisms, his golf game has rendered his nonsense moot for a week. Golfer Supremacy RankingsComments: Wow. Really, who was expecting this. We know Tiger Woods was off doing other things, but this is ridiculous. It also lights a fire under those that believe wacky spiritualists like Chopra actually have something to say. He's said a lot over the years, like:
• "The less you open your heart to others, the more your heart suffers" • "Every person is a God in embryo. Its only desire is to be born." So have at it God Embryos. If Deepak Chopra can take time away from a speech in Berkeley to win a golf tournament in Hawaii, then maybe, just maybe, he's not a wholesale scam artist. Regardless, he really struck the ball well. It will be interesting to see how this fits in with all his spiritual stuff. Comments: We heard he had a good weekend, as well. Comments: Stricker got a strong start on what would be (we believe) his 14th consecutive comeback player of the year award. Stricker gave it all in Hawaii, taking second to Chopra after four playoff holes at the Mercedes Championship. The jury is still out, but here's thing that Stricker will be a major player in 2008.

Comments: Seems Sabbatini took his larynx and went home after the Mercedes-Benz Championship, conducting a media boycott of sorts. Once again though, we can't help loving Rory. It's a painful love, that's for sure, but still, finally golf has its own version of Terrell Owens. Just with much worse abs.
