2010 British Open: Louis Oosthuizen Emerges as Surprise Leader in Round Two

The nation of South Africa is on quite a roll lately. Fresh off the rousing success of the 2010 FIFA World Cup, becoming the first African nation to ever host the event, South Africa is once again making headlines, this time at the British Open at St. Andrews. After much of the media attention was going to young sensation Rory McIlroy's opening round of 63, lost in between the headlines was South... 

2010 British Open: John Daly Finds Peace at the Old Course

"There’s just something peaceful about this place. I remember when I came here in ’95, I wasn’t playing good golf.  I was playing horrible golf. I didn’t know what to expect, but I knew how much I loved this place." That is what John Daly had to say after his opening round of 66, currently tied for second place at the British Open. So far, in the early stages of the third... 

British Open 2010: KJ Choi Turning More Than Heads on Putting Green

KJ Choi is not really known for shaking things up on the PGA Tour, but he has done just that on the putting green since last week at the John Deere Classic with his, well, unorthodox new style of putting. He begins his setup to the ball just like every other player on tour does alongside the ball reading the line, and it looks like he is about to address the ball as "normal". He then turns his... 

Ian Poulter To American Golfers: Your Reign Of Winning Is Over

Ian Poulter, best known for his clothing style, Twitter rants, commercials where he is accused of stealing cheap motel drapes and getting under the skin of American golf fans, has a new message for the U.S. golfers. Basically, he is saying that the American's reign of winning golf tournaments and especially major championships is coming to end and is practically over. In a recent interview he did with... 

British Open Field 2010: First and Second Round Pairings To Watch

Major championships in golf are what every player on tour looks forward to playing in and strives to win in their careers. Unlike other sports, PGA Tour players are not judged on how many rings or wins they have, but ultimately by how many majors they have won. Or at least contended in. An underlying and often overlooked part to that equation of winning a major championship can often reside... 

British Open 2010: The Road Holes Get Tougher

One of the familiar holes to many and one of the most well known holes in all of golf has received a bit of a makeover for the 2010 British Open Championship. The famous "Road Hole" at the old course at St. Andrews has been lengthened to 495 yards with the addition of a new tee box pushing it back from the 455 yards the last time the Open Championship was contested there. Altering... 

PGA Tour Rookie Matt Every Accused of Marijuana Possession

Some people say golf is not a sport for the "everyday" man—it's only for the rich or well off. Some say golf is boring and has no news-worthy topics as other sports do. Not the sex, drugs, and rock 'n roll that seems to drive other sports to popularity for some unknown reason. Well, fortunately, golf and the PGA Tour have hit the "big time" sports now. Past contestant on the hit Golf Channel... 

Paul Goydos Shoots 59 in First Round of John Deere Classic

Birdie 10, Birdie 11, Birdie 12, Birdie 13, Birdie 14, Par 15 (what happened there?), Birdie 16, and Birdie 17. How's that for a scorecard to start off the back nine of a PGA Tour event? And no, this is not a dream or a script for a Hollywood golf film. No, this is exactly what Paul Goydos did in the first round of the John Deere Classic on Thursday. His front nine was not as birdie-filled but... 

Charl Schwartzel’s Early Performances a Prelude to Things To Come?

Charl Schwartzel never could have imagined in his wildest dreams that he would be in the final pairing with his boyhood idol, Ernie Els, at Doral with a chance to win his first PGA tour event. But that is exactly where he found himself this past Sunday in South Florida. Schwartzel, a native of South Africa, as is Els, was two years old when his father and Ernie Els won a club tournament together. He... 

The Debate Is Over: Ping Eye 2 Wedges Are Now Banned
