Phil Mickelson: Is His Weekend Showing at Phoenix Open a Cause for Concern?

Some have predicted a monster year from the now 40-year-old Phil Mickelson. A strong showing at Torrey Pines was apparently all it took for the Phil faithful to jump back on that old bandwagon. Seemed a bit premature, to say the least. Mickelson is coming off what was undoubtedly his worst year on the PGA Tour in about a decade and a half—and this included, by the way, a win at the... 

Tiger Woods’ First Round of the Year: Calm, Poised and in Control

In April 2010, the world’s then-No. 1 golfer, Tiger Woods, played his first tournament of the year at Augusta National at the Masters in the midst of a 365-day nightmare. Tiger actually played fairly well, finishing in a tie for fourth and leading many of us to think he wasn’t going to miss a beat, despite the long layoff and all that happened to him in his private life (which isn’t,... 

Ryder Cup Captain: Davis Love Gets the Nod, but Was It the Best Choice?

It was hardly a well kept secret that Davis Love would become the next United States Ryder Cup team captain. On Thursday it was finally made official. Love will lead the team next year in an attempt to recapture the cup from the European squad, which edged out the American in Wales last October to take the cup away. Love was the expected and, to many, logical choice. The 46 year old succeeds Corey... 

PGA Tour: Anthony Kim and the 10 Players Who Impressed at the Sony Open

The second PGA event of the season, and the first with a full field, finished up on Sunday in Honolulu with a 36-hole marathon. Rain washed out the first day of the tournament on Thursday, forcing the long Sunday. The survivor of the weekend was Mark Wilson, who hung on to beat South African, Tim Clark, by two shots. The win earned Wilson his first trip ever to the Masters in April. Here’s a... 

PGA 2011: 10 Lessons We Learned at the Hyundai Tournament of Champions

The year’s first PGA tournament is in the books, with the surprise victory going to Jonathan Byrd in a playoff victory over Robert Garrigus. Although it is only one tournament, perhaps a few things can be taken from the results of the Hyundai Tournament of Champions. Perhaps 10 things? The field for the tournament is one of the smallest of the year, as it makes up the winners from last year’s... 

Tiger Woods: When and Where His Wins Will Come In 2011

The wins came fast and furious for Tiger Woods for the first 13 years of his professional career. However, not so much in year 14. Amazingly, the golfer who had won 71 PGA tournaments and had 91 overall professional wins in his first 13 years, did not win a single tournament in 2010. Coming off the scandal that rocked his private life late in 2009 and into 2010, Woods struggled on the golf course the... 

No Tiger Woods: Top 10 Shots of 2010

This year may well be remembered as the nightmare that wouldn’t end for the world’s No. 1 golfer. But perhaps it would be better to remember it as the year the rest of the field caught Tiger. Many golfers stepped up in 2010, including the likes of Martin Kaymer, Lee Westwood, Matt Kuchar, Paul Casey, Rory McIlroy and a host of others. Here’s one man’s attempt at nailing down... 

Tiger Woods: Trying To Win Back Fans or Simply Doing What He Has Always Done?

It is difficult for most of us to imagine how it must be to be at the top of particular sport. And I’m not just talking about the top of a big hill or a small mountain, but to be at the peak of, let’s say, Mt. Everest. That is where Tiger Woods was standing before the matter of a little car crash about 13 months ago. Thus, it is equally just as hard for most of... 

50 Greatest Golf Quotes of All Time

There have been some fascinating characters in the world of golf over the years. From Old Tom Morris, to Walter Hagan, to Arnold Palmer; the sport has... 

Tiger Woods: Does Playoff Loss To Graeme McDowell Mean Anything Moving Forward?

There are two ways to look at Tiger Woods‘ sudden-death playoff loss to Graeme McDowell on Sunday at the Chevron Challenge. One, it is a huge collapse that would never have happened to the pre-2010 Tiger Woods, and it is another devastating emotional hurdle he must overcome heading into 2011. Or two, Tiger played extremely well over the weekend, and one of the game’s great players in Graeme...
