anyone else seen this? ESPN's schedule has some obvious mistakes... http://sports.espn.go.com/golf/schedule

Jon Mills apparently won the US Open last year. Someone better tell Cabrera..

Edit- Phil didnt win the Players? lol

Padraig needs to have the bad news broken that he didnt win The Open championship either..

Wow, that list is f*cked up.

Fed Ex will be happy.

Some serious business coming their way to ship all those trophies back...

Tiger is going to be angry when he realizes he is one major further from Jack's record!

How could this be!!!! Does no one proof anything? You don't even have to be a golf fan to know some of the Major winners last year there were some pretty big stories there????

Lol.. Rocco Mediate won a tournament while reporting for TGC that same event.

ironically theres a link at the bottom of the page for this article

"Zach Johnson's successful 2007 campaign will forever be remembered for just one thing -- winning the Masters."

it looks like theyre pulling names out of no where for those 'defending champions'

Oct. 16 - Oct. 19
Tickets | TravelJustin Timberlake Shriners Hospitals Open
TPC at Summerlin, Las Vegas, NV

Please tell me this is a Misprint.

WTF is the world coming to when Justin Timberlake gets to host a tournament.

Zach Johnson was remembered in 2007 for one thing, mainly his win at the Masters.

wow John Daly even won a tournament

According to ESPN...Tiger didn't even win a Tournament in 2007 to defend...
He's going to be real hungry after going winless in 2007...LOL.
Obviously a gag...must be from those knuckleheads on ESPN 69...they're alway getting things flip flopped the wrong way.

Sadly, no it isn't a misprint. It was on ESPN and the Golf Channel not too long ago about him getting to be the host of his own tournament.

Actually, the Timberlake thing is real as crazy as it sounds.

That list is nuts though, I really wonder how it came up with the list of defending champs . . .it had to be some kind of auto-fill programing thing that has not been fixed yet.

I sent espn an email letting them know about the problem yesterday and got this response back.

now this has got to be some of the funniest $h!t I've ever seen on a major internet site!!!!

Somebody's gotta let catch this over at ESPN sometime soon!!!

I'm gonna screen capture it while we can!!!

EDIT**Okay...in case they fix it, here's what all the chatter is about:**

Just stupid.

Liquor Liability, muxi? uh oh

Joe Durant won the British Open....??? WTF?

What the hell?

Who put up the defending champs.

They must have been drunk at the time.

Yeah, and Mark Wilson held off Tiger at the PGA and Jon Mills was victorious at Oakmont. (Who is Jon Mills?)

A Canadian!

Score Golf did a story on him not long ago HERE

Cheers

lol.... I am surprised they didn't put David Duval winning the Master's. lol

Thanks! The ESPN list is fixed now, but that story on Jon Mills helped me figure out how they may have screwed it up in the first place. It said he was disappointed to miss the cut by one at Oakmont when Angel Cabrera birdied his last hole. I looked up about 6 or 7 of the defending champs they had on the bad list and they all missed the cut on the number. I am guessing that ESPN listed all these guys on the top of the list for those who did not make the cut and they mistakenly programed the schedule to pull that name instead of the top 72 hole score. (I am not sure how it chose the names for the tournaments without cuts though)

-- I was bored at lunch today if you could not tell!

If you look at the source code it looks like the names are just hard coded in. So someone probably just grabbed the cut list who doesn't know that much about golf and just typed them in. Probably an intern.

I'm still waiting on Les Miles and Jon Tenuta to report to Michigan as per ESPN Gameday's report...haha...the golf thing is just too funny!

Now that I think about it, I vaguely remember this from the US Open coverage...
Johnny Miller: Rolfy, who is this Mills - that swing is something even Craig Parry would puke at!

yep...I'm an insurance guy...

Wow

This is a classic golf thing. See Bing Crosby!
This is good for the game in my opinion. Bring more peopel to the event. JT loves the game and who cares if XYZ company is a sponsor or Justin? Doesn;t matter to the pros!

The Justin Timberlake Shriners Hospitals for Children Open is an ongoing commitment between Timberlake and Shriners Hospitals for Children. The collaboration between Shriners Hospitals for Children and Timberlake creates a truly unique and world-class event for players and fans alike. A host of well-known golfers will participate in the competition to help support the mission of Shriners Hospitals for Children. I will fly a group of my top executives and their spouses to Vegas for this event which allows for a fantastic corporate retreat while offering a qualified charitable contribution that supports Shriners work with pediatric specialty care in orthopedics, burns, spinal cord injuries and cleft lip and palate. Hope to see you there!
