Pebble Beach doors open again to duffers after US Open
PEBBLE BEACH, CA.: For a week Pebble Beach Golf Links belonged to the world's best but on Monday the famous seaside layout on every golfer's bucket list was returned to the duffers and weekend warriors.Scenic Pebble Beach, where the U.S. Open champion was crowned for a sixth time on Sunday, may be one of golf's iconic venues but remains a public course available to anyone willing to shell out US$550 for a round and wait in line for a tee time.With rugged Pacific coastline on one side and the lush cypress cedar-covered hillside dotted with mansions (one that went on the market for US$78 million) on the other, Pebble Beach has the look, feel and price tag of a private club.But if you have the money and time you too can add to the millions of stray golf balls that have found a home in Stillwater Cove.Tiger Woods, a regular on the Forbes list of sport's highest earners, would have no problem getting a round in at Pebble but the 15-time major winner said that was not always the case."The … [Read more...] about Pebble Beach doors open again to duffers after US Open
Call me crazy
I was born into this world with a severe case of high self-esteem. When I listen to stories from my nannies and parents about me growing up, there was no doubt that even before I could spell my name I believed I would become the biggest movie star in the world. From the time I could speak, I spoke in a medley of bad English and American accents. I would cry dramatically when my nanny would leave the house. I would resist bedtime like a suffragette. I always savored a reaction from my audience regardless of whether it was positive or negative. I lived for it. I had pleaded to my grandfather to place me in one of the more popular shows in ABS-CBN at that time, even just as an extra. He sternly said no.

I groomed my grandfather’s driver Abrea for a … [Read more...] about Call me crazy
