Tiger Woods: Martin Kaymer Wrong to Speak the Truth About PGA Tour

Golf survived when 28-year-old Bobby Jones retired in 1930. Golf survived when 34-year-old Byron Nelson (pseudo) retired in 1946. Golf even survived with Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus turning grey and retiring from the major championships. And golf will survive—whether it’s this year, or 40 years from now—when Tiger Woods retires. But, as Martin Kaymer admitted recently, golf needs... 

Tiger Woods: Will Money Play a Role in Tiger’s Comeback?

On SI.com today there was a headline that read: “Forbes: Is Woods starting to run out of money?“ Its author Daniel Roberts wasn’t trying to imply that we’ll soon see Tiger Woods in a tattered red Nike shirt on a street corner with a “Will Putt for Food” sign. But the article does remind us that for all the hits his public image has taken over the last two years,... 

2011 British Open Leaderboard: What Is Tiger Woods Thinking Right Now?

I know that it’s popular right now to sort of kick the 14-time major champion when he’s down and “beat a dead Tiger,” but I think there should be some optimism for Eldrick right now. Sure, the US Open allowed Rory McIlroy to not only steal some of his thunder and snap some of his records, but it blew in a new wave of “the next Tiger Woods” talk, and we tend to only... 

Thomas Levet Video: Watch French Golfer Levitate into Water, out of British Open

In the great tradition established by Leon Lett’s Super Bowl showboat, Gus Frerotte’s headbutt, Mark Madsen’s dance and, the coup de grace, Bill Gramatica’s post field goal torn ACL, French golfer Thomas Levet’s leap joined the pantheon of sports celebrations gone terribly wrong. Last weekend near at Le Golf National, Levet shot a closing round one-under-70 to... 

Why Tiger Woods’ Return to Marketing Is a Step in the Right Direction

Make all the jokes you want to about Tiger Woods‘ latest endorsement deal—several media outlets indicate that he has signed with a Japanese company to promote a heat rub lotion—but Woods will have the last laugh. Obviously, just a few years ago, reports that Woods was promoting a new product weren’t terribly newsworthy. He was this century’s most coveted and frequent sports... 

Tiger Woods on Crutches: 5 Major Champions Who Weren’t Slowed by Major Injuries

The sports world is aghast today after hearing that Tiger Woods is in a cast and on crutches, less than a month before the US Open commences. Even though Woods declared that he expects to play in our National Open three weeks from tomorrow, his arrival on the first tee in just 23 days does seem to be in doubt. Now we don’t think of golf as much of a contact sport, but injuries certainly do occur,... 

Tiger Woods: 3 Reasons Why He Will Surpass Jack Nicklaus’ Record for Most Majors

It’s popular these days to declare Tiger Woods championship-winning career dead and buried. And with good reason—what happened at the Players Championship was really embarrassing and discouraging. And who knows what to make of the durability of his lower body. But that’s not nearly enough to suggest—to me anyhow—that he will fail in his ultimate quest, passing Jack Nicklaus’... 

Tiger Woods: If Tiger Never Regains His Form, Will He Walk Away from Golf?

The U.S. Open is a month away, and as great as the Masters is, I still believe that our national open is the most prestigious event in the sport. The rough is absurdly thick, the greens are as fast as the playing surface of a hockey rink, the fairways are barely wide enough for a threesome to walk down. It’s the truest, toughest test of golf in the world. So there is no better, or more fitting,... 

Charl Schwartzel: Nothing Wrong with Masters Champ Choosing Golf over Letterman

Masters Winner Charl Schwartzel Doesn’t Owe Anyone Anything It took roughly 12 hours for Charles Schwartzel to be second guessed. Although not for a poor club choice from the fairway, opting to select driver instead of a three wood, or misreading a putt. No, instead Schwartzel’s decision not to appear on David Letterman–he’s heading to Malaysia to play a tournament there–was... 

Masters 2011: Recapping Charl Schwartzel, Tiger Woods & Top Stories from Augusta

The 2011 Masters was a thriller. It had virtually everything—Tiger Woods was in contention until the very end, there was a great comeback and there was the horrible-to-watch collapse of the man atop the leaderboard, too. Was it the greatest Masters ever? Hard to say. However, that shouldn’t matter. If the last four days were any indication, we should be in for a great major championship...
