New Feature: Outpunning Jim Nantz - Memorial Edition
After the absolutely dreadful pun on Justin Rose's name at the Memorial on Sunday, it only seems appropriate to create a new feature here at Waggle Room to ridicule celebrate the puntastic man that is Jim Nantz. And we'll call it Outpunning Nantz. It's a very simple game. You take the name of...
Phil Mickelson Baffles the Golfing World for the Thousandth Time
Earlier in the week at Muirfield Village, Phil Mickelson busted out driver on the 360-someodd yard par 4 14th hole. Why did he go for it, despite the perils of a small landing area and water hazard? In his own words, because he just missed a fairway and therefore had no need to preserve the...
Can Everyone Finally Lay Off of Tiger Woods?
After having what Jack Nicklaus described as what "may be his best week driving, ever," Tiger Woods has two wins on the season thanks to a final round 65 at Muirfield Village. Following the event, Woods spoke with the media who must have had their tails between their legs. So many journalists...

Is Jack Too Hard on the Boys?
Jack Nicklaus has believed for quite a while that today's equipment - particularly the golf ball - makes the game too easy for the best players in the world. Or at least allows them to hit the ball so far that today's game bears less and less resemblance to yesterday's game all the time. There are...
