The Story

One good shot, and a golfer can launch into the top ranks of the sport. And that’s what happened to Michael Tobiason Jr. in the US Open this June. He just hopes he will no longer have to sleep in his car as he plays the circuit.

Sean Lewis and Michael Bradley became friends at boot camp. They were deployed together to Iraq - Mike was a medic, and Sean was working as a bodyguard. One day at camp, Mike felt a huge mortar hit and went running towards the site. Two soldiers had been killed. The survivor was Sean, Mike's friend. He'd lost a leg and was bleeding from three major arteries. Back in the States, almost a year to the day of the incident, Mike and Sean met up at Walter Reed. Now they find themselves golfing together.  Also in this episode, Gianna Horak has gone to Beijing to participate in the pre-Olympics ceremonies. Gianna is with the Los Angeles Children's Chorus, but Gianna's story is about more than singing with the choir. Gianna was adopted from China when she was 8 months old and brought to the United States where she was then diagnosed as deaf.

Longtime emergency medicine doctor Paul Auerbach is author of "Wilderness Medicine," a guide many physicians and outdoorsmen rely on.

Garrett McNamara recently surfed a giant wave, perhaps one the biggest ever surfed. He says he's in search of the next wave, hopefully one even bigger.
