A Wild, Wet Morning

Greetings again from St. Andrews, where the word of the day has been rain. Well, maybe two words - rain and cold. For a few hours this morning, it was so chilly in the media center I could see my breath. The brisk air also seemed to affect our technology as we were without the wireless network for a few hours. But we are now up and running and all seems to be well. That's more than I can say for my friend Beth Ann Baldry, who is here writing for Golfweek. Yesterday, the "c" key fell off her computer. Try writing about the Curtis Cup Match without the letter c!

The rain didn't seem to affect the USA team as it won two of this morning's matches and had a chance to win the third on the 18th green. The weather might have actually helped the Americans as the greens were more receptive to approach shots than they had been during the practice rounds. Two of the three morning foursomes matches ended on the 18th green and all three featured comebacks.

The weather seems to have calmed down for now. We'll see how long that lasts!
