Adam Scott Repeats Qatar Title, Woods Wins Buick, Louis Williams From Hoops to Turntable.

GREAT BALLS OF SCOTT
The biggest distraction I had while working the Buick was the TV, which was tuned to the Qatar Masters for part of the day. With one eye on our lovely Columbian kitten, Camilo Villegas, and the other battling focus on Adam Scott and Johan Edfors, I was just about beside myself.

Adam Scott grabbed the Pearl trophy after shooting an 11-under 61 Sunday to win the Qatar Masters by three strokes over Henrik Stenson. The Burberry babe delivered 11 birdies at the Doha Golf Club to finish at 20-under 268. But more importantly, this victory gives Adam Scott the honor of being the first repeat winner of the tournament since its inception in 1998. “It’s a move in the right direction, getting back to where I was,” said Scott after nabbing his 14th professional title. “I haven’t played that poorly over the last six months, it just hasn’t been anything special, just solid stuff and nothing exciting. There are so many good players that you slowly slip away, this time last year I was No. 3 in the world and feeling pretty good about myself. It’s now important to build on this momentum. There are two world golf events and the Masters in the next 2½ months, hopefully I will keep this form rolling and then get in the mix in those [tournaments], that is my aim.”

Finishing the tourney in 4th place was Johan Edfors. Edfors and his perfectly fit Puma gear continue to knock my panties socks off with his sexy swing and feisty persona. If dude can’t sell the sport of golf to you, then I suggest you make an appointment to see your doctor.

And just a few words about the Buick Invitational. Tiger has obviously kicked it up an unexpected notch. Woods finished at 19-under 269 to win the Buick for the fourth consecutive year, tying a PGA Tour record for consecutive wins in a single tournament. “I’m starting to get better,” he said. “I’m hitting shots that I never could hit before, even in 2000. People think, ‘Yeah, you played great.’ But I made everything. I’m actually hitting the ball better now than I did during that stretch.” Dare I say he’s beginning to sound like his friend R-Fed…on a much sweeter note, Camilo Villegas was also frolicking at the Buick, finishing T13 at 3-under. But what surprised me about our kitten was his interaction with the fans. With my eyes focused on his finely sculpted forearms, I watched as he stopped and signed about 31 autographs for spectators- mostly children. But before walking away, he would tussle the child’s hair, or pat them on the head- sending them into squeals of delight. It was one of the most touching ‘sports’ moments I’ve seen in a long time, and just goes to show ya, it only takes a few seconds to improve a child’s life. Thank you Camilo…for everything.

TSONGA DOWNED BY DJOKOVIC

Is it me or is Jo-Wilfried Tsonga trying out for a modeling job? Just about every photo I come across looks like an ad for his adidas gear…perhaps lending credit to the age-old joke ‘what does adidas stand for’-All Day I Dream About Sex. In any case, hottie has put himself on the map despite his loss to Novak Djokovic. Djokovic won the Australian Open championship by beating Tsonga 4-6, 6-4, 6-3, 7-6, in a match attended by Sting and Andy Summer of the Police.

SPIN ME ROUND

Louis Williams of the 76ers is doing double duty. Aside from lending some spark to the bench, the 21-year-old is launching his own radio show called “The Louis Williams Show” on February 10. “My main goal is just to go out there and promote myself, my teammates and the Sixers’ organization and just try to get some more fans in the seats at the Wachovia Center,” Williams said. “Just think, if I’m on the road in Cleveland, I can interview LeBron [James] or if I’m Los Angeles I can have Kobe [Bryant] be a guest on my show,” Williams said. “It’s the ‘Louis Williams Show,’ I can do whatever I want, really.” Williams also said the money he earns while working at the station will support his Caps for Kids Drive.

GOLDEN STATE PENN

While getting my daily intake of Golden State Warriors action via Baron Davis/his Beard/Matt Barnes/and his ink, I stumbled across Sean Penn chilling in the stands during the GS/Knicks game. Funny thing is, Sean Penn seems to be more important than Sir Anthony Hopkins? Hopkins is clearly sitting next to Penn, but got no mention in the photo cap. Tsk-tsk…
