Video Contest…Check Out My Fan Video and Make Sure to Vote for Me

Screen grab from video.

Today we had to create a South Korean fan video. The objective was to show that South Korea is excited the Wear in the World adventure is here. Please go to adidasgolf.com/WITW homepage and check out my video. And make sure to vote for mine! I had a lot of fun creating the video today and met a lot of wonderful South Korean locals on Jeju Island.

Tomorrow we are golfing Elysian Country Club. I had to find a local to play golf with tomorrow. I happened to speak with my cab driver, Yang, and he agreed to play. It is a great story and can’t wait to tell.

Thanks!
Steve

A tough day on the course and Opportunity of a lifetime vs Homesickness

My inventory count beginning the day included my laptop, my cell phone, camera, 6 hats, 2 pairs of shoes, and a headcover…that’s it! The only connection I have to my golf clubs and main travel bag are these two shoddy pictures I took of my bag claim slips before they were taken away:
