Rudy Giuliani's kid refuses to admit that he's terrible at golf

Posted July 24, 2008 on DonJulio's Blog:
Until recently Andrew Giuliani played golf for Duke University, which itself recently hired a new golf coach for Duke's then 13-member team. The new coach decided he wanted to cut the team in half: six or seven great golfers instead of a baker's dozen with a few hacks at the end of the quote-unquote bench. Talent evaluation in basketball, baseball or football is subjective; however, in golf, your score is your score. Deciding which players to cut is easy. There is no room for debate, and Andrew Giuliani's scores were not good. Giuliani was worse than nearly the entire team (ranked #12 on Duke). So the coach cut him. Simple as that. But Giuliani is now suing the school, upset that Duke has thrown a wrench into his plans of becoming a professional golfer. Let me break it down for you, Andrew: If you're one of the worst players on your college team, good luck cutting it on the PGA Tour. Daddy's money helps in court, but it's not going to help you against Tiger Woods, who regardless has more money than Pops. FROM THE LAWSUIT: "Andrew and his teammates were shocked. Andrew had no prior notice of what was about to happen. At no time was Andrew ever given an opportunity to defend himself." No prior notice? No opportunity to defend himself? How about just being a better golfer. That would have helped. He should man up, stop crying, and practice harder. If you don't want to get cut, make yourself indispensable. Second to last doesn't exactly qualify. - Dewey http://www.charlotte.com/sports_breaking/story/726558.html
