Tiger’s New Tournament - Woes Already

Someone turned on the gripe-for-a-day wheel and today’s topic is Tiger Woods’ new tournament, which being held in Washington D.C. over the 4th of July weekend. Tim Finchem said that he’s leaning towards making the new tournament an invitation-only tournament, which also means a limited-field event. The actual number of players to be […]

No Revenue For Golf Courses Here

I live in Colorado Springs (at the foot of Pikes Peak), Colorado, and 9 out 10 years you can play golf year round, literally. In fact, my brother Gary and I played at least once a month during the winter months for 4 consecutive years here. Sure, we got the obligatory snowstorms, but […]

Big Break VII - First Elimination

I’m not totally shocked, but the first pair of contestants to get eliminated from the Big Break VII were the senior citizens, Gary Ostrega and Cindy Miller. Ostrega has some game, but his attitude is horrible and I’m not sure why the Golf Channel folks even picked him to compete. Miller did […]

Nancy Lopez Back On Tour?

I had to look twice, but sure enough, the article said that Nancy Lopez is planning on playing at least 5 events this year on the LPGA Tour.

Wilson Wins First Title

Mark Wilson parred the third playoff hole this morning and won his first PGA Tour title in 111 starts. I’m not totally surprised, at least based on his putting in the final round on Sunday. He was draining everything to keep in contention. It’s also refreshing to hear Boo Weekly and Jose […]

Shootout At The Honda Classic

There’s a shootout happening at the Honda Classic and it’s in the form of a four-way playoff between Camilo Villegas, Jose Coceres, Boo Weekly, and Mark Wilson. They finished one playoff hole (all tied) but unfortunately, it’s been suspended until Monday morning because of darkness. What a final round it was though as […]

Nicklaus Toughens Honda Classic Course

The leaderboard after two rounds shows that Robert Allenby and Charlie Wi are tied at 5-under at the Honda Classic, being played at PGA National in Palm Beach Gardens. However, the real leader this week is Jack Nicklaus. He redesigned parts of PGA National with the sole purpose of making it harder for […]

Can Natalie Gulbis Win?

My wife and I were watching the Natalie Gulbis show on the Golf Channel last night and there’s no question she’s become a marketing genius. She looks very comfortable giving interviews, in front of a camera, and schmoozing with the corporate types that’s required of her now. But it does beg the question, […]
