FedExCup Foursquare: How to Bribe Players to Do Their Jobs
A whole lot of newsworthy things have happened on the PGA Tour in recent weeks. The Wyndham Championship allowed fans to bring in cell phones during tournament play. Jim Furyk missed his pro-am tee time by five minutes and was DQ'd, prompting a Phil Mickelson repudiation of the Tour and a...
Phil Mickelson: Rules Czar?
Phil doesn't make the rules, and maybe that's why he has found gripes with several of them. Mickelson exploited the USGA and PGA Tour settlements with Karsten Manufacturing to play wedges with non-compliant-but-approved-for-play grooves earlier in the year. His mockery/protest of the grooves...
PGA Tour Suspends Pro-Am DQ Regulation for Remainder of 2010
As part of the brushback from the Jim Furyk DQ last Wednesday at The Barclays, the PGA Tour has opted to suspend its rule leading to a disqualification for a missed tee time in a pro-am. This rule will be suspended for the rest of the 2010 season, with a review to follow. In a statement, the PGA...
Once Exempted Mickelson Has A Point on Furyk DQ
As we reminded you yesterday, Phil Mickelson has been one of a fortunate few to miss his pro-am tee time in the last four years and not be disqualified for it. Naturally, since that little nugget was resurrected yesterday, Mickelson was asked about his thoughts on the Furyk DQ - particularly in...

The disqualification is the set penalty for tardiness...
Jim Furyk Unlucky at 16 on Sunday, Gains Momentum for PGA
Jim Furyk was making a great move on Sunday at Firestone. Six under through 15 holes, Furyk came to the par 5 sixteenth with a chance to make some real leaderboard noise. Hitting his third shot into the green, Furyk was incredibly unlucky. The approach clipped the flagstick about three feet up,...
I'm Sorry, Jim Furyk, For Missing Your First Win Since '07
The deadline for my attention was fast closing in on 7:30 pm and moving over to either Golf Channel or ESPN to watch the Tiger interviews. (Which would I choose?! Went with Golf Channel first since I had read the transcript from ESPN before it aired.) Meanwhile, Jim Furyk was standing off of the...
PGA Show Mash Up: All The Crap I Shared Yesterday on Twitter
Since many of you don't use Twitter (sign up, it's easy, seriously), I decided to post all of the stuff that I shared on Wednesday and yesterday on Twitter from the PGA Show. All messages are in chronological order, starting first to last. (Click on each thumbnail to view the picture in...
Jim Furyk: I've Made A Huge ($131,250) Mistake
Unless you're Shawn Kemp, Donald Trump, Bernie Madoff, or Michael Bluth, you have likely never made a single mistake that cost you more than a few thousand dollars. Fender bender, maybe. Bad investment in a Ponzi scheme. Perhaps you invested in HD DVD technology instead of Blu-Ray. That...
