The PGA Tour’s FedEx Cup Playoffs got off to a rocky start back in 2007; there is little question about that.

Giving grades to top PGA Tour stars is not a cut-and-dried proposition, but it has to be done and it is. Questions like: Is Jimmy Walker’s three-victory season better than Rickie Fowler’s no-victory, but top-five finishes-in-all-four-majors...

After what transpired in Medinah some two years ago, it’s safe to say neither Team USA nor Europe will have a shortage of motivation entering the 2014 Ryder Cup. Team Europe’s stunning comeback victory in 2012 dashed the Americans’ hopes of an upset, and captain Tom Watson has been leading the charge of assembling a 12-man squad capable of knocking off the star-studded Europeans....
