Last week produced one of the more improbable PGA Tour wins this year. Troy Merritt had missed five consecutive cuts before winning the Quicken Loans National by three strokes over Rickie Fowler. Merritt didn’t do anything special early in the week but shot 61-67 on the weekend to secure a well deserved victory. The field this week is a completely different animal though…not surprising for a WGC e...

Struggling to watch Tiger Woods
Jul 29, 2015 10:49:00 AM
As a golf fan, it is truly hard to watch the struggles of who is arguably the second greatest golfer who ever lived. When I was in college in 1994, I worked at the Western Open as a caddy in the Pro-Ams on Monday and Wednesday. The Monday Pro-Am normally hosts the lesser known players, but I got lucky that week. Tiger Woods was right off his first United States Amateur title and was given an exemp...

Jul 26, 2015 12:08:55 PM
The Open Championship just concluded within the past few hours and it was simply insane. I have so many thoughts on the tournament that I’m not even sure where to start. The thoughts that seem most notable to me…
Waking up on a Thursday morning and watching major championship golf at 6am is great. On both Thursday and Friday I watched the first hour of coverage before getting out of bed. I spent bo...

May 13, 2015 3:39:55 PM
Last Sunday’s closing round of The Players Championship at TPC Sawgrass gave us one of the best finishes in the history of the The Players. We saw big names making a Sunday charge up the leaderboard, young upstarts trying to make a name with a big PGA Tour win, and yet another playoff. But it wasn’t all good from TPC Sawgrass. It was hard to ignore the incessant heckling of Sergio Garcia picked up...

Where does Tiger Woods go from here?
Feb 12, 2015 1:49:58 PM
It appears as though Tiger Woods is finally coming to grips with the worst kept secret on the PGA Tour: his golf game is a complete mess and he has no idea what to do about it.
Following his 2009 car accident, cheating scandal and divorce, we have seen very few moments of Tiger Woods being Tiger Woods on the golf course. He once dropped one of the most head scratching and least comical lines abou...
Read MoreWorld of golf spinning fast in December
Dec 9, 2014 12:51:01 PM
The month of December is a historically quiet time for the PGA Tour. There are no big tournaments to speak of as the season comes to an official close. That doesn’t mean it’s all quiet on the golfing front, though, because we’ve had some pretty news-worthy moments recently, including:
Tiger Woods didn’t win the Hero Challenge this weekend, but he finished pain free. In the world of Woods circa 201...
Read MoreInterview with the Big Cat, Tiger Woods
Nov 20, 2014 3:55:52 PM
The golf media didn’t always have such a contemptuous relationship with Tiger Woods. A few years ago when he was winning major championships on the regular, outlets like Golf Digest, Golf Channel and others couldn’t get enough of the Eldrick. He meant page views, ratings, and the almighty bottom line were going to be on a steep rise.
Now that his golf game has taken a nosedive after he crashed his ...
