Ashley Prange won the Golf Channel's "Big Break V"! In match play, she beat Jeanne Cho by the score of 5 and 4.
All of Jeanne's great shots and lag putts seemed to be for par or bogey to halve the hole. Ashley played very steadily, not making any mistakes. In the end, Ashley couldn't believe she had a simple two-putt to win the thing. Jeanne couldn't believe the match slipped away as quickly as it did.
Congrats to Ashley! Well wishes to Jeanne and the other competitors.

Big Break: Ashley v. Jeanne
In Big Break V (a reality golf show on The Golf Channel), the final two contestants (whittled down from eleven contestants over the past three months) will be facing one another in match play tomorrow night (9PM EDT). I know that this is a recorded television show, and that there's much creative editing, but I believe The Golf Channel has a terrific match in the final pairing between Ashley Prange and Jeanne Cho.
On the show, Ashley is loose, often irreverent, and very vocal about her capabilities. I get the sense that Ashley knows how to relax and have a party. Jeanne seems very much the opposite: reserved, very 'internal'. I can almost feel her 'strict Asian upbringing'. But both are pretty fierce competitors. Both have really good golf skills.
I'm rooting for Jeanne, but I'm wishing both of them luck!

Brothers
My youngest brother Renato just bought a house.
My younger brother Ron posted some nice pictures from the 2006 New York International Auto Show. He also wrote about it.

Off the Hook
America has voted, presumably, for The Next Food Network Star (the polling closed on Thursday; I missed placing my vote).
Guy Fieri ("Off the Hook") is my choice. I'm so glad he's one of the two finalists.
Reggie Southerland ("Simply Spectacular") is my wife's choice.
I've posted before about Guy, and as I watched the last few episodes, I'm convinced he's the real deal. For his sample pilot, he made Tequila Turkey Fettuccine and Breathmint Pie, and I wanted to eat both those dishes (and I already had dinner!). That's when I know a TV chef is reaching me...when I want to eat what they're making.
Good luck to both contestants this Sunday!
