Luke Donald Explains His Barclays 28-40 & How Monty May Have Cost Him $10 Million
Remember that front nine 28 that probably landed Luke Donald a spot on the European Ryder Cup team? And then the 40 coming home that made half of the universe second guess what in the world they just saw? Well, the Englishman has a perfectly fine explanation. In his blog through sponsor Mizuno,...
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...
Is Matt Kuchar the Lead American on the Ryder Cup Team?
Has it dawned on you yet that Matt Kuchar is leading the PGA Tour money list? With his second win in less than twelve months and a 2010 season filled with top ten finishes, the former Georgia Tech standout also has found his way into the top ten of the Official World Golf Rankings for the first...

Montgomerie Delays Ryder Cup Picks by 30 Minutes...to Pick Luke Donald?
Colin Montgomerie was set to make his three captain's picks for the European Ryder Cup team at 1pm ET. Montgomerie, though, has now pushed back that press conference to announce the picks at 1:30pm. Perhaps he is doing so to accommodate Luke Donald who has made birdies on six of his first seven...

With a filing in Bay County Circuit Court in Panama City, Florida, on Monday, Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren jointly ushered in new phases of their lives - both together and separately. Elin gave the go-ahead for People magazine to publish teasers from a 19 hour, 4 day interview in which she...
Shouldn't Ernie Els Get a Prize for His Triumphant Regular Season?
In addition to a slew of money, Lee Westwood got a patch to wear on his shirt for winning last year's inaugural Race to Duabi. I swiftly ridiculed it. I was ridiculed back. We all had fun. Our friend Chris Chaney at Wrong Fairway now wonders if Ernie Els should get some kind of reward for winning...

The PGA Tour has announced that Jim Furyk - currently sitting in third position in the FedExCup standings - has been disqualified from this week's first round of the Playoffs at The Barclays for missing his 7:30 pro-am tee time by five minutes. The disqualification is the set penalty for tardiness...
Great Views Equals Great Golf Course, Right? No.
