Not long after Adam Scott rolled in his third birdie putt in a row during Friday's second round at East Lake, Scott's instructor Butch Harmon got a message on is Blackberry. It was from Natalie Gulbis, who had just finished her day at the Solheim Cup in Sweden. The message read: "What do I need to do? I'm pushing short putts and keeping my head stiff. So mad that I lost my match, but the team's kicking Europe's ass."

Butch did not respond immediately. But he promised to before the end of the day. "It's a five-hour time difference. I'll give her a call after dinner over there," he said. 

Nothing like giving lessons on two continents at the same time.
