Hey there, time traveller!

TORONTO — Mike Weir had every opportunity to make excuses after crashing out of the RBC Canadian Open, but the popular Canuck lefty pointed the finger directly at himself.
The Bright’s Grove, Ont., native refused to pinpoint the tendinitis in his right arm as the reason for his poor play after firing a 74 at St. George’s on Friday to finish at 6 over and miss the cut.
Big crowds followed Weir through both his rounds, but the 2003 Masters champion couldn’t deliver.
“I had great support. I want to give a better show and the fans are great. I wanted to play well for them. I was trying as hard as I could,” said Weir, who pulled out of Wednesday’s pro-am because of the tendinitis.
“I’m at a point in my game right now that I’m struggling and everybody goes through it at some point in their career. You just have to keep working.”
Weir found himself in the rough far too often and that was his ultimate undoing.
