>From an AP report Friday April 6 on the Masters golf tournament at Augusta:

<quote>
Westwood's caddy, Billy Foster, walked the course earlier in the da and sent back a scouting report.
    "Billy had sent me a text saying that the pins were tough," Westwood said.  He used slightly more flowering language tan that, but we'll stick to tough."
