The flag was 251 yards away, with a light wind out of the right. With an open stance, he hit a high cut and begged it to carry the bunker, which it barely did. Next, he aimed some 15 yards to the left of the green and hit a bullet with a slight hook that landed on the back corner of the green."Still got it!" Watson jokingly proclaimed.He hasn't forgotten how to play. He hasn't been gone from the game that long, though it sure seems that way.It has been just more than seven weeks since Watson hit that wild hook with a wedge out of the Georgia pines and onto the 10th green to win the Masters in a playoff. He became an overnight sensation in a green jacket, and then he virtually disappeared from the golf scene. He has played only one tournament since, in New Orleans, and only because he was the defending champion.The reminder of how long Watson has stayed away from golf came on the practice range Tuesday at Muirfield Village...Scott Stallings drained three birdies in his final four holes Thursday to rise to the top of the leaderboard after one round at the Memorial Tournament.Stallings ent...
