Golf Pros love it. Golf Course Superintendents hate it. What is it? A little device known as the Stimpmeter. It was developed back in 1935 by an amateur golfer from Massachusetts, Edward Stimpson. The USGA first used the instrument in 1976 at the U.S. Open, and it was made available to golf course superintendents in 1978. That is the key point. The device was made for use by golf course superintendents,...

The ladies prepare to do battle on the red clay of Stade Roland Garros as the 2010 French Open begins on Sunday. Questions abound concerning which players are fit to play—fully recovered from injuries, mentally and physically. Further, which top players are peaking at just the right moment? Who will ride the wave and find herself standing on Court Philippe-Chatrier for the final match June 5th? The...

In the sport of rugby union, there are many teams I have respect for. I have respect for the Wallabies because of their consistency. The All Blacks’ haka and fluid play have made their a favorite around the world. England, Scotland, Ireland, Italy, Wales, and France form the super hexagon of European rugby while a secondary hex of impending dominance looms in the Ukraine, Spain, Portugal, Romania,...

Without a doubt, Justine Henin has established herself as the premier clay court player on the WTA tour. She has a heartfelt story complete with all of the makings of a Hallmark Movie of the Week. The untimely passing of her mother when she was still a child, her estrangement from her family, set against the backdrop of her meteoric rise to the top of women’s tennis. After reaching...

One of our favorite players to debate these days is Jonathan Stewart, the third-year running back for the Carolina Panthers (I need to find a way to write Caaar-ro-lina Paaan-thers like Chris Berman says it). I digress. Anyway, I believe J-Stew is a beast, and while “stuck” in an ultra-productive platoon with a very talented DeAngelo Williams, he is gifted enough to produce another 1,000+...

Adam Scott shall now be known as “The Phoenix.” I picked him two weeks ago to win at Quail Hollow. Too bad that was the week he decided he was going to miss his second cut of the season. You won’t believe this one, but go back in the archives and check it out… I also picked Adam Scott one other time this year. That’s right, the Northern Trust Open, and guess what? Yep,...

As David Feherty might say, there are golf coaches with the ability to make a difference in their students’ lives, and there’s whatever this is. Adam Scott’s one-stroke victory at the Valero Texas Open has just sent Dave Stockton’s stock into another stratosphere. Stockton’s instruction has quickly become the best investment a touring pro can make, and the forward...

Damn, damn, damn! Why did Roger Federer have to win the FO and Wimbledon last year and then the AO this year? Imagine if Roger had only 13 GS titles right now, and no RG title. Wouldn’t there be a heck of a lot more expectation running up to the FO? The GOAT debate would still be roaring, Nadal and Federer fans would still be at each other’s throats with a real basis of contention, Federer...
