Colonial turned into Crowne Plaza Invitational
Rory Sabbatini, voted the least favorite to play with on tour by his peers, won the Colonial — er, the Crowne Plaza Invitational — this weekend. Rory birdied the first hole and beat Jim Furyk and 49-year-old Bernard Langer. Wow, Bernard’s still getting it done, almost at age 50.
So this tournament just doesn’t seem the same with the new name. Remember when Annika Sorenstam almost made the cut here. Now, the tourney seems to have lost some of its stature. At least it’s not the Holiday Inn Invitational.
