The 2011 Presidents Cup is over. The USA will not choke away a 13-9 lead heading into the final day of play in Australia. Book it.

And with the way Woods’ golf game has languished since 2009, that’s saying something. The Americans dominated in foursome play at Royal Melbourne on a rain-soaked Saturday in Australia, earning points in four out of five matchups to extend their advantage from...

The fat lady hasn’t sung, but she is already warming up after Day 3 of the 2011 Presidents Cup in Melbourne, Australia. The Americans entered the third day with a 7-5 lead over the International team. It took them very little time to build off of that lead.

This year has had its fair share of surprises, and most of the predictions made for 2011 were simply tossed out of the window as soon as the first ball was hit in January. Likely as that is to happen again, I’ll still take a stab at it. Here are five significant observations from 2011, which should help us estimate to some degree what to expect in what should be a scintillating 2012. Begin...

Tiger Woods has yet to notch a single point at the 2011 Presidents Cup, yet the Americans own a 7-5 lead over the International team at Royal Melbourne. What does that tell you? Allow me to answer that question for you—that Tiger, as everyone already knew, is irrelevant in the golf world today. To be fair, neither team has played particularly well in Australia so far. The 24 participants, among...
