Eye of the Tiger

October 23, 2009 By Donna Webeck

Today my son made his father extremely proud. No, he didn’t find a cure for cancer, manage to master the technique of toilet training nor even win some prestigious children’s modelling competition – no, he instead has made his first (unsteady) step in the direction of the great sporting arena of gentleman – golf. Yes, Harrison has put putter to ball and has likely set off on a golfing journey that will make him (and his mummy & daddy) millions.

Being particularly proud parents who already boast about their son’s seemingly extraordinary sporting skills one cant help but get blinded by future dollars signs in our line of sight. He already has a helluva accurate throwing arm, has just started to kick “le ball” as he calls it, and now, is showing impressive amateur sporting prowess in the arena of golf, when he, from the minute he picked up the putter and connected it with the ball, seems like he was right in the swing (if you get my drift!) of it – an all at only 14 months of age. Impressive, yes?

Being partial to a spot of overseas travel, I’m more than willing to volunteer my services to act as security, keep the fans at bay… Hell, I’d even be keen for a call up as his caddy – despite the fact I have a limited (ie ZERO) knowledge of the game of golf.

There’s still some room for improvement, I’ll acknowledge that, biased as I am… Like all seasoned golfers, he too saw fit to throw a few teeny tantrums when things didn’t quite go to plan (read: his fledgling land legs which are still adjusting to being upright instead of nearer the floor, often gave way, much to his chagrin). But for his first attempt, I hope you’ll agree, the boy’s got some serious potential!

Could I have the next Tiger Woods on my hands? Time will tell… He was but a wee lad when he took his first tentative tee shot, like my Harrison. We wont have to necessarily change his name one supposes, but Cougar Webeck does have quite a ring to it, don’t you agree? Bit better than Cheetah Webeck – don’t think he’ll experience much success in the professional golfing arena sporting a name such as that…
