Weir Sporting The Hockey Playoff Beard

Good to see Mike Weir sporting a Playoff beard with the first event of the FedEx Playoffs on this week. I'm pretty sure most in Canada now of this practice. Hopefully it works for Weirsy as he's tied for second going into the final round.

"After the PGA I had a family vacation, my kids and I and some friends. We went down to a lake in southern Utah and just didn't have a razor," 2003 Masters champion Weir told reporters.

"I got home and thought, you know what, it's the playoffs. I guess the old hockey player in me thought we'll keep it out there," he said about the grizzled look favored by some hockey players heading into the Stanley Cup playoffs.
