PALM DESERT, Calif. (AP) ? Justin Leonard was unsure if he would even be able to make it to the first tee at the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic last year.
Battling flulike symptoms, he not only made it to the tee, he went on to play 90 holes and win the five-day tournament.
Leonard, back to defend his title, recalled how his young daughter first got sick a year ago, then his wife ? and then he finally caught the cold.
'Tuesday night, I ended up getting sick,' Leonard said. 'I wasn't even sure Wednesday if I was going to be able to play.'"
