Burning Questions for Rory McIlroy Before His 2014-15 PGA Tour Debut

Rory McIlroy is making his 2014-2015 PGA Tour debut at this week’s Honda Classic.  The world No. 1 won the event in 2012 and lost to Russell Henley in a playoff last year, so he knows his way around PGA National. And with a win and a second-place finish to start his season on the European Tour, McIlroy‘s game is in good shape heading into the week.   The four-time major winner... 

Winners and Losers from the 2015 Northern Trust Open

Midway through Sunday’s final round, CBS Sports’ Jim Nantz mentioned that there were 22 players within four shots of the lead. If that sounds like the final round of a major championship, that’s because this tournament looked a heck of a lot like a major in general and a U.S. Open in particular.  Seven players held the lead or a share of the lead at some point during the final... 

The Most Likely Crowd Favorites at Each Golf Major in 2015

When we talk about the crowd favorites for this season’s majors, we have to deal with the elephant in the room first: Tiger Woods.  Sure Rickie Fowler resonates with younger fans, and Rory McIlroy is on top of the world. And while perhaps it should not be this way, neither of them have the appeal of a battered and aging Tiger Woods.  At nearly 40 years of age, with back problems aplenty... 

Early Storylines Emerging for the 2015 PGA Tour Season

The 2015 PGA Tour season got started in October of last year. (We’ll get used to this wraparound season thing eventually.)  While the first major of the season is nearly two months away, there hasn’t been any shortage of interesting storylines. And only one of them is Tiger Woods-related, as Toothgate doesn’t make the list.  Click through for the biggest storylines on tour... 

Winners and Losers from the 2015 AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am

If you were hoping Jim Furyk would end his heartbreaking run of near-victories at the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am, sorry to disappoint.  The Pennsylvania native entered the final round leading by one but didn’t get the job done.  Instead, it was Brandt Snedeker returning to the winner’s circle for the first time since the 2013 RBC Canadian Open. How good was Sneds? He... 

Ranking the Best Celebrity Golfers at the 2015 AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am

Ever since the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am was a much more informal event hosted by Bing Crosby, where participants ate baked clams and enjoyed the temperate breeze off Carmel Bay, celebrities have been a part of the tournament on the Monterey Peninsula.  This year, of course, is no exception as the pro-am field is packed full of stars. Some can actually play golf, and some are like... 

Ranking the Top 8 Bill Murray Moments at the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am

Before we look at the top eight Bill Murray moments from Pebble Beach, a disclaimer: This list is flawed, incomplete and potentially totally wrong. No matter how much research you do, the best Bill Murray stories from Pebble Beach (or anywhere really) aren’t reported. Heck, that’s why there’s a website devoted to encounters with the comic icon (billmurraystories.com).  With that... 

Winners and Losers from the 2015 Farmers Insurance Open

Even without Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson, the Farmers Insurance Open didn’t lack for final-round drama.  Of course, Woods’ departure midway through his first round with a back injury that had him hobbled and looking twice his age and Mickelson’s missed cut dominated preweekend headlines.  On Sunday, when most significant things usually happen in a golf tournament, a four-man... 

Ranking the 10 Most Frustrating Golfers to Root for

What makes a golfer frustrating to root for?  Many fans surely feel it’s frustrating to see some golfers play well—the legions of anti-Tiger-ites come to mind here.  These aren’t the golfers that make up our roundup of the most frustrating golfers to root for. Golfers who are frustrating to root for either aggravate us deeply, although we love to root for them, or they fall... 

5 Reasons Why Torrey Pines Is the Perfect Course to Cure Tiger Woods’ Woe

If you were alarmed by Tiger Woods‘ embarrassing performance at the Waste Management Phoenix Open in general and his career-worst 82 in particular last week, fear not. The 79-time PGA Tour winner is heading to his personal playground for this week’s Farmers Insurance Open. And when he tees it up at Torrey Pines, TW will be competing in the tournament he’s won more than any other in...
