You know, I'm starting to think this Greek is going to surprise all of us. He seems unstoppable.

Really didn't know much about him until this years world championships in Qatar. He beat a lot of good players and finished top 10. There's still a lot of talent left in this field. It's been a while since Johnny won a major. We go way back so he's got my support.

I'm kind of hoping a young'n gets there, like Oscar or Keith Bennett. :p

But if it can't be them, of course, I'd be elated to see Johnny in the winner's circle. :smile:

Tysons at 5. :rotflmao: It took Keith and me 10 hours to drive to Richmond from D.C. on a Friday night. I'll never forget it. :embarrassed2:

Isn't that traffic from DC to Richmond absolutely brutal at times! Don't they call it the "mixing bowl" or something like that? I've been sitting still in it a number of times.
 
SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAM

Darren is now at 5 against Keith Bennett's 6.

I'm telling you, this Appelton likes to play with his opponents, like a cat with its prey. :p

It sure is. I always try to plan my driving in the middle of the night if I have to go South, but you're not even safe then, with all that non-stop road construction.
 
If this Darren ties the score with Keith Bennett, I'm taking a swan dive off of Key Bridge.

Whew! Keith Bennett saved me from my pending dive into the Potomac River. :D 7-5, Keith on top.

Former world champ Darryl Peach, from England, is commentating on the stream and was talking about Appleton. Said he is by far the greatest European rack mechanic of all time. Rack your own events aren't over for him until the last ball is down.

Karl Boyes on the hill. Just put a fork in Corey. He's done. Damn it.
