2009 British Open - Jim Nantz talks about Watson - BBC

Experience, it's all about experience. Growing older might make a man slower in some ways, but it should also make him smarter. Tom Watson, as it happens, is not noticeably slow these days, but he most definitely is smart. Very smart.

At 59 he has the edge called wisdom. This is why he backed both sides going into this Open -- opting to sign a contract to join the ABC television commentary team over the weekend, just in case he failed to make the cut. Instead, of course, he is in front of the cameras and merrily strutting his stuff as only a man with a freshly minted hip can do.
