Blowin' In The Wind, The Open Style



In honor of the conditions this morning at the Home of Golf, with a tip of the advertisement-festooned visor to the greatest of them all, Bob Dylan:

How many times  must a man tee off
Before he completes a round ?

How many greens must a white ball sail
Before it ends in the sand ?

Yes, how many times must the air horn cry
Before they're allowed to play ?

The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is howlin' in the wind.

Yes, how many years can a Watson compete  
Before he waves the last time ?

Yes, how many years can a Brit try to win
Before he’s allowed to hoist the jug ?

Yes, how many times can Bobby Jones turn his head
Hoping the winner is Speith ?

The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is howlin' in the wind.

Yes, how many times must Dustin launch it
Before he wins a big one?

Yes, how many caps must one man wear
Before he can play St.Andrews ?

Yes, how many chunks will it take till Tiger knows
That his storied  career has died ?

The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind
The answer is howlin' in the wind.
