Tiger Woods‘ golf game has been in the depths in 2015, but this week, he may have turned the corner. He’s close to the lead at the Quicken Loans National, one of the two tournaments he hosts, and, as everyone knows, there’s nothing like Tiger in the hunt. It could make for a spectacular weekend. “I hit the ball really well today,” he said. “I was very pleased with... 

Olympics: Golf Majors Jammed into Summer, Tournaments Move for Olympics

The PGA Tour released its 2015-2016 schedule Thursday, and to say that the Olympics are causing an upheaval in the 2015-2016 PGA Tour schedule is an understatement. Through the U.S. Open, most events remain in their traditional spots except for the WGC-Dell Match Play which moves to Austin, Texas, and follows the Arnold Palmer Invitational. Then, the fun and scheduling tweaks begin. The Quicken Loans... 

Jordan Spieth: Will He Be Stopped After Masters and U.S. Open Wins?

We know that only six golfers won the Masters and the U.S. Open in the same year. One of them is Jordan Spieth. Ben Hogan did it twice, in 1951 and 1953. But in 1951, Hogan didn’t enter the British Open. In 1953, he followed up his first two majors with a third, the British Open. He is still the only person in golf history to have won those three events in the same year. If you believe many,... 

Jordan Spieth: Can He Match Ben Hogan’s Feat of 1953?

With all the talk of Jordan Spieth’s chance for the Grand Slam, many have forgotten the 1953 record set by Ben Hogan when he won the Masters, the U.S. Open and the British Open. Hogan’s three majors of 1953 are still the closest anyone has gotten to the modern day Grand Slam, and that was seven years before it was called the Grand Slam. Hogan, at the time, was four-and-a-half seasons beyond... 

Jordan Spieth: Focusing on John Deere Will Help for Challenge of British Open

“I committed to this event well ahead of time, never really crossed my mind to drop out,” said Jordan Spieth at the John Deere Classic.  He does not believe it will hurt his chances at the British Open. In fact, he thinks it will assist him in his preparation. “I believe that if I can work myself into contention just as I did in the previous two majors, I don’t think it... 

Jordan Spieth, More Than 15 Minutes of Fame; Now a Billboard Regular

Jordan Spieth is going to get more than 15 minutes of fame. He’s already made numerous television show appearances off the golf course. And now we’ve discovered that he’s up in lights in more ways than one. He’s more than a Masters and U.S. Open Champ. He’s become America’s champ. From smaller tournaments, like the John Deere Classic to FedEx Playoffs, he’s... 

Colin Montgomerie: Major Ironman, Plays Seven Majors in 2015

While the younger golfers talk about limited schedules, Champions Tour player Colin Montgomerie is taking on a challenge that would make most professional golfers shudder. “I’ve got seven major championships to play in this year. And I enjoy them all. Thoroughly,” he said prior to the Senior PGA Championship. He’s already played five of those seven over a seven-week period,... 

Chambers Bay Golf Course: What Can Be Done to Fix Spectator Problems?

Chambers Bay, photographically, was very special. It was scenic. The look is charming and historic. The site has breathtaking water views. There are plenty of waving fescue grasses. But at the U.S. Open, as a spectator, you couldn’t watch golf being played.    While I’m not a golf course architect, I know a few of them. I have overheard their conversations as they walked around... 

Jordan Spieth: Can He Match the 3-Majors-in-a-Season Mark of Ben Hogan?

Jordan Spieth has made history by winning The Masters and U.S. Open in 2015, becoming the sixth player to win the first two legs of golf’s Grand Slam in the same year. Now he has a chance to do something that only one person has done in the past—match the mark of Ben Hogan, who won the first three legs of the modern Grand Slam in 1953 and remains the only person to do so. However, during... 

Jordan Spieth Has One Big Advantage in Attempt to Cut New Notch in Golf History

“I have a chance to make history in many ways. But in order to do that, I have to really focus on this week,” Jordan Spieth said earlier this week. “The U.S. Open is about as challenging mentally as any tournament in the world. So you have to go in positively. You have to go in with enough confidence to get yourself into contention.” He’s right where he wants to be.     With...
