Phil in the news ..
RudyRules:
lol...I'd love to see Phil in a kilt! :wohoo: :wohoo:
Slowhatch:
Well, this is odd. A coffee house owner in Stirling claims Phil visited his shop today; if so, he's already traveled 50 miles (map here)
apskip:
Phil has been at it for 2 days, so going 50 miles in 2 days would be spectacular if solely on foot. However, there was some reference to bicycling with his wife. It would be possible to putt along a road(much easier than through fields, where any fences would make getting over them with a putter somewhat difficult although not impossible) and ride a bike along that road for the increments that the ball travels.
georgiapeach:
Nice find Slowhatch!
--- Quote ---The walk will take them four days and they will end up in St Andrews, the home of golf.
--- End quote ---
They say it is 100 miles so guess they are covering about 25 a day? Does it say anywhere that he is actually walking the whole way? Or is it hit the ball, ride along, hit the ball, etc...
Funny comments about his crew though...
And while the image of a biker-golfer Phil is actually quite entertaining, I think the K2 cycling race is actually a NZ challenge scheduled for Oct 27...
I'm still keeping my eyes peeled for a pic of Phil in a kilt! :lol:

OH BOY :jumpy:! You have to watch the video :luvu:

The Los Angeles-based Kiwi, host of TV show The Amazing Race, which this week won its fifth consecutive Emmy, is making guest appearances in the Wellington show tonight and tomorrow night.
To the sounds of It's Raining Men, he models a suit -made from interlaced silk ties with a matching top hat and cane - created by Nelson designer Sarah Hornibrooke for the 1998 awards.
Keoghan is filming the show and its creator, Suzie Moncrieff, for his documentary series Keoghan's Heroes, which will screen in the United States.
He said WoW epitomised Kiwi innovation and creativity and he was keen to get it more international exposure.
"Resourcefulness is a huge part of our culture and clearly this has come from that way of thinking. I love people that break the mould and do things differently."
When the organisers suggested he take part he jumped at the opportunity.
"With my stories, I don't like to be spectator. I don't like to stand on the sidelines. I'd rather step into the story and tell the story."
The WoW awards officially opened last night at the TSB Bank Arena, showcasing 156 carefully crafted garments. The first scenes are of a girl being read a bedtime story before the dream-like extravaganza begins. Her bed grows wings and floats to the ceiling; monsters reminiscent of Where the Wild Things Are romp across the stage.
The awards, including supreme winner, will be presented tonight but the show continues till September 30. There are limited tickets left on some nights.
The winners will be pictured in tomorrow's Dominion Post.
