Ran into Cameron Champ

[physasst]

Similar to the Notah Begay thread, I ran into Cameron Champ in the San Antonio airport last year. He was sitting in the food court eating cheese fries. I was there to give a talk at a medical conference. Really nice dude. Don't think he's used to people recognizing him. He seemed a little shocked when I recognized him. Told him I wished him luck. Seemed very kind and gracious. Good kid.

You didn't challenge him to a long drive contest?

[Man_O_War]

cheese fries...no wonder he thought no one would recognize him

[physasst]

HA, no, there are some things in life that I am better off not knowing. Knowing how much farther he drives the ball directly compared to me is one of them.

Did either of you have a Sharpie?

[golfer07840]

Did you discuss the distance report and ask him if he felt somewhat responsible for the death of 7,500 yard courses?

[gators78]

His swing is just so so so so so so so so so so so so good. It's stupid fast and in perfect rhythm. If he gets his shortgame figured out he'll be winning a lot.

As long as he keeps being unable to hit the broad side of a barn from inside 100 yards...those courses are probably safe for now.

[golfer07840]

Haha.. I was kidding anyway, but funny response.

I got knuckles from him at the PGA last year lol. Can't believe how "normal" his physique is... Expected him to some how be taller or more muscular looking in person.

Watching him hit driver was one of the most awe inspiring golf moments I've had to date.

[cardoustie]

No arm wrestling ?

[Z1ggy16]

He seemed a little busy at the time.

Did you exchange insurance details?

Got some pain in my left elbow - any advice?

 

 

[Hawkeye77]

 

LOL, I can tell you while typing one-handed that a nerve block will fix you right up! Of course, after 24 hours when it is supposed to have worn off and hasn't I'm all for a little pain in my left elbow just to reassure me, lol.

[NoMo_3putt]

I'm going to start eating cheese fries, maybe that's his secret for distance...

[RealNickG]

I mean, he has won TWICE on tour already. He's not exactly not winning. He's not consistent, but he can also throw down when he needs to.

[stingerfade]

Walked next to him at riviera going down the hill to 10 tee. Not a big guy at all was shocked. Very lean and was nice as was his caddy

[physasst]

Well, that's a loaded question. LOL.

[Ferguson]

 

Heard you were at the medical conference and I put 2 and 2 together........was thinking maybe he knows an elbow doc?

 

 

[physasst]

Actually I know quite a few. I practice in PM&R spine care. I was there to give primary care docs a talk on managing spine conditions. I'm the back and neck pain guy. But I see elbows too...LOL.

[Ferguson]

 

You mean advising them there are treatments beyond calling in some meloxicam and taking it easy?
