Golf, World Cup and Wimbledon!

18 holes at Kalmar Golf Club today. The ”Old Course” has recently had a ”make over” and the new greens are both ”truer” and quicker than the old ones. I played with Claude ”The Voice” and we went round in 3 hours 30 mins which is about an hour quicker than the average round. Next week is Kalmar GC ”golf week” and The Voice and i will be pairing up for an Irish foursome on tuesday.

I made it home to see the last 20 mins plus the first 15 mins of extra time in the Japan – Paraguay game. I cant say that i was impressed by either side but it is South America´s world cup thus far and the fact that Paraguay won on penalties is no surprise.

I watched Lindsdals IF this evening beat Vimmerby 3-2. A strange match. LIF took the lead in the first half and after that never really looked like conceding a goal. Then all of a sudden a long throw a touch at the near post and it´s 1-1. Vimmerby then have a ”purple patch” of about 10 mins take the lead 2-1 and have a few chances for 3-1. With 2 mins left Lindsdal make it 2-2 and in the 92 min Fredrick Petersson gets the winner. Lindsdal have the quality to win Div 2 and when they play a quick passing game with a lot of movement up front things start to happen.

David Villa has now scored 43 times in 63 appearences for Spain. If he stays fit then Spain have a great chance of reaching the Final.

Two World Cup ”free” days now! Maybe we can watch some Wimbledon tennis. Söderling – Nadal tomorrow!
