TEEN SCREAMS: They shouted their names, clamored for autographs and got giddy
looks on their faces whenever their two idols were in the vicinity.
"I'm just waiting for my daughter to show up," said PGA pro Joe Durant. "I can't
imagine what Beatlemania was like, but this can't be too far off."
Durant played yesterday's round with Backstreet Boy A.J. McLean, while fellow
band member Kevin Richardson was paired with Chris Riley. That meant a younger
crowd, and a whole lot of teenage squeals.
"Sometimes, it's just a little weird," McLean admitted. "But it's very, very
flattering. I keep a picture of myself back in high school, when everybody
called me a loser. Now everyone screams my name. It's so humbling."
McLean is a regular on the charity golf circuit and plays to a 14-handicap. He
unleashed a 260-yard 3-wood on the par-5 8th hole yesterday, but lost par to a
three-putt. Still, his amateur team grabbed low net honors with a remarkable 49.
"I got the ball off the ground today, which made me feel good," he said.
