Biggest Winners and Losers from the Waste Management Phoenix Open

The Greenest Show on Grass is in the books. And at the Waste Management Phoenix Open this year, TPC Scottsdale laid waste to the likes of Tiger Woods (who was historically awful) and Phil Mickelson.  The door was opened for the legions of rowdies to feast their eyes on a Sunday showdown that involved golfers who have been distinguishing themselves in the past year: 54-hole leader Martin Laird,... 

Preview and Prediction for Tiger Woods at the 2015 Waste Management Phoenix Open

It’s going to be a wild week in Arizona: Tiger Woods is teeing it up at the Waste Management Phoenix Open for the first time since 2001, and there’s a little football game being played in the area, too.  Judging from the former world No. 1’s demeanor in his Tuesday press conference, he’s feeling pretty good heading into the Greenest Show on Grass.  Thursday, Woods... 

Winners and Losers from the 2015 Humana Challenge

At the Humana Challenge on Sunday, it looked for a long time that we were going to see a six-man uber playoff for the title.  Bill Haas had other plans.  Haas, who has a penchant for getting things done on the final hole (see 2011 Tour Championship), handled the unfortunate results of his tee shot en route to a closing par and a one-stroke victory. He finished at 22 under ahead of a pack... 

Odds for 2015 PGA Tour Rookie of the Year

The PGA Tour welcomes 24 rookies to its ranks for the 2014-2015 season. One rookie (Nick Taylor) has already won this season. With the strength of the class, another rookie winner can’t be far behind.  Who has the best shot at succeeding last year’s ROY, Chesson Hadley? Before examining that question, it’s important to note how the PGA Tour defines a rookie: A player’s... 

Winners and Losers from the 2015 Sony Open in Hawaii

Events on the course at the Sony Open in Hawaii took a back seat to what happened to one of the tournament’s participants who missed the cut. Per the AAP (h/t BBC News), Robert Allenby, who fired rounds of 71-71 to miss the cut, was reportedly kidnapped from a wine bar, robbed and beaten. The gruesome tourist horror story punctured the traditionally sunny, leisurely calm of the tour. And while... 

Predicting the Biggest Surprises on the PGA Tour in 2015

There’s something inherently oxymoronic about predicting surprises, but we’re going to do it anyway. Will any of 2015’s unexpected events rival the emergence of Fowler the Major Contender? Rickie Fowler’s top-five finishes in all four majors were collectively one of the the biggest surprises on the PGA Tour last season.  Fowler did everything but win one of golf’s... 

Winners and Losers from the 2015 Hyundai Tournament of Champions

The more self-impressed golf writers in the world will likely draw some clever comparison between Patrick Reed and another golfer who dons red and black during the final round of golf tournaments. Reed did look positively Tiger-esque (or is it Woods-ian?) down the stretch at the Hyundai Tournament of Champions as he hunted down Jimmy Walker in thrilling fashion.  The new father, of course, finds... 

2014-15 PGA Tour Player of the Year Odds: Handicapping the Field

Who would have thought that Billy Horschel would have a better 2013-2014 season than Tiger Woods when the campaign began?  Such is the difficulty in predicting success on the PGA Tour in general. The winner of the Player of the Year will join a list of recent winners that includes: 2014: Rory McIlroy 2013: Tiger Woods 2012: Rory McIlroy 2011: Luke Donald 2010: Jim Furyk Who has the best chance... 

5 Things Rickie Fowler Must Do to Have a Successful 2014-15 PGA Tour Season

Rickie Fowler made great strides toward elite status on the PGA Tour in 2014.  He moved from 40th at the end of 2013 to 10th at the end of 2014 in the Official World Golf Ranking thanks to his efforts on course in the past year. That’s a substantial jump.  And while Fowler didn’t win a tournament in 2014, he was the best player on tour relative to par across all four majors. In...
