U.S. Takes 1st Day Lead at 37th Ryder Cup - Must Be a Misprint.

If the 37th Ryder Cup ended after just one day the Cup would be miraculously returning to American terra firma. The end of day 1 gave the Americans a 5-2 advantage in formats that typically aren’t their strong suit. Morning foursomes gave the US a 3-1 advantage and they’ll finish the afternoon…

Weir Drops Beard and Strokes at Deutsche Bank.

Mike Weir reverse-Sampsoned his way to a course record tying, career low 61 at the Deutsche Bank Championship earlier today. Birdies on the 1st four holes and all one-putts on the back nine will have that effect. Weir shaved his Wayne Gretzsky inspired “playoff beard” and probably wished he’d done…

Hey Phil! Here’s How to Win the Deutsche Bank Championship.

Enough already Phil. You’re the #1 player in the world that can walk under his own power. The competition you face this week in the Deutsche Bank Championship should be playing for 2nd place. You’re one of the longest hitters out there, have arguably the best short game, and have before ruled the…

Sergio’s Rodent Relief - Rule 25.

For those of you that sat perplexed watching Sergio Garcia passionately plead his case during yesterday’s final round of The Barclays, let’s try and shed some light.

Leaders Play “Hot Potato” at The Barclays.

Little did Steve Stricker know that the lead is the worst thing to have at The Barclays. After grabbing the 2nd round lead, Stricker coughed it up with emphasis after a 3rd round, back nine 43 derailed his chances. A triple bogey 7 on the par four 11th hole just made the hole in his boat much…

Tiger Woods Can’t Win the FedExCup.

Yes, that’s how they want it spelled, FedExCup. Some marketing genius justified his existence in coming up with it. It doesn’t translate well to the established tournaments though. TheUSOpen doesn’t quite carry the same panache.

The Monster Takes Prisoners in 1st Round of 90th PGA Championship.

Red numbers were as precious Pro V1s in a hacker’s league at the 90th PGA Championship. Oakland Hills lived up to it’s name and left a large share of the field mumbling to themselves. A 90 minute rain delay prevented completion of the 1st round, so results are partial.

John Deere Classic - The Tour’s Best Tee Markers.

These are just the coolest tee markers on the face of the planet. I suppose the only way to one-up these would be at the Johnnie Walker Classic. My home course uses rotting birch logs with the ends painted to indicate the various tees. The short hitters get to the tee box first and kick them…

Anthony Kim Steps Up.

Winning the AT&T National on Sunday was nothing but pure validation for young Anthony Kim. By doing so he became only the second American golfer to rack up two P.G.A. Tour victories before his 25th birthday in the last ten years. Tiger Woods is the other. Perhaps there’s still a little hope for a…

Does the Fedex Cup Really Matter?

$35,000,000.00 in total purse, $10,000,000.00 to the winner. Those aren’t typos. You’d think that kind of jing would boggle the mind of anyone, even a successful golf pro.

Sergio Garcia Surges to THE PLAYERS Championship Lead After Round #1.

Sergio Garcia’s putter didn’t desert him in the first round of THE PLAYERS Championship today. He maintained his reputation for being one of the, if not the best, ball strikers on tour by nailing 71% of the fairways and hitting 89% of the greens in regulation. Put that together with 29 putts and…

PGA News

Something happened today at the Honda Classic that we don’t see every day. On his 3rd hole of the day John Daly had to withdraw because he injured himself when he tried to stop his back swing because someone took a picture. If this was me I don’t think I would have been very happy as I’m sure he wasn’t. Not only did this fan possibly cost him a pay check this week but possibly in events in the future. I would think that if someone was at an event like this that they at least should have some decency and wait until after he has hit the ball to take their picture. And in other news from the PGA it has been reported that Ernie Els has left Titleist and will now play for Callaway making him the first big name player to sign with them since Phil did.

Show down in the Desert

What a weekend at the WGC-Accenture Match Play Championship. There was quite the showdown on Friday between Nick O’Hern and Tiger. A match that went to 20 holes after Tiger did what Tiger does best and birdied the 18th hole in regulation. Then on Sunday in the 36 hole finale we saw someone who isn’t very well known in the United States win the biggest tournament of his career. To be honest with you I had never heard of Henrik Stenson before this weekend. With the win this weekend Stenson will now take over the 5th spot on the World Rankings. What an impressive game this guy has. Not only was I impressed with him but with his opponent Geoff Ogilvy as well. All in all the final day of this event was a great duel between two players whose names were not Tiger, Phil, or Ernie. Great day for golf.

Nissan Open

That was quite the finish yesterday at the Nissan Open. We saw Charles Howell III finally break through and win, and not only did he win be he made a lot of clutch shots when it counted. I can only imagine what getting up and down on all three play off holes will do for his confidence.

If he keeps playing like he has been he is going to see his world ranking sky rocket. This year alone he has two second place finishes and now a win, he is leading the Fedex Cup points, and the money list. Watch out Tiger!!!!
