Ross Fisher Takes Masters Lead Early On Day 1 Ross Fisher took the early lead on Day 1 at the Masters Tournament. Fisher is a name known only to dedicated golf fans at this point. Fisher, 30, plays mainly on the European Tour and his best finish at the Masters was a tie for 30th in 2009. Fisher is from England and began his professional career in 2006 and won his first tournament, the KLM Open, in...

The 2011 Masters are underway in Augusta, Georgia. One of golf’s most hallowed events annually brings in great ratings with high drama and great storylines. Tiger Woods enters the field as something other than the favorite for the first time in more than a decade while Phil Mickelson will try and win it all again. The first day of play almost always turns in one compelling storyline, and we will...

The Ryder Cup is on us, and one of the many questions surrounding Tiger Woods involves his ever-changing swing. Woods has completely overhauled his swing twice since turning pro, once in the late 1990s with Butch Harmon and again a few years later with Hank Haney in an attempt to relieve the stress on his surgically repaired knee. Now, after another huge knee surgery and a very bad 2010, plus a parting...

Tiger Woods didn’t win it, but the last golf major of the year was full of its own set of memorable events. There were golfers who had good days, like Martin Kaymer. There were golfers who had bad days, like Dustin Johnson. Each day had its own storyline, and all of them were good. The PGA Championship this week is proof you don’t need Tiger Woods on top of the leaderboard to have a drama-filled...

The final major of the year is upon us, and there is no doubt Tiger Woods will be the center of attention again in Wisconsin. But there are a few other golfers out there besides Tiger Woods, and it’s a good bet some familiar names will make themselves known while a few up-and-comers announce their presence to the world this weekend. The Major tournaments always present their own unique set of...

With one round in the books, the Bridgestone Invitational already has given people a lot to talk about. Bubba Watson continues to rise in the public consciousness and Tiger Woods added yet another bad day to his 2010 repertoire. The weekend is just beginning, though, and the drama is sure to pick up, especially if Tiger has another bad day and begins flirting with the cut line. Here are 10 players...

The way to get people’s attention in golf is to hit some really long drives. Yes, making 30-foot putts for eagle also tends to make the highlight reel, but like in baseball, there’s nothing that captures people’s attention like the longball. Various golfers over the years have “wowed” the galleries and TV audiences with some spectacular drives, here are the current leaders,...

Not every tournament has to be a major to be filled with unexpected performances and an underdog story to give a nice hook to the weekend recaps. Carl Pettersson, who barely made the cut after Friday’s round, shot a 60 on Saturday and a 67 on Sunday to win the tournament by one stroke. But Pettersson wasn’t the only guy out on the course this weekend. There were plenty of other highlights...

Another golf major in 2010 without a healthy Tiger Woods hoisting the trophy. In one sense, it’s far too early to say the post-crash Tiger Woods is finished, but it’s clear he’s not his old self. The “slump” of 2003-2004 always seemed to have some kind of “hard” factor you could put your finger on, be it his swing changes to accommodate his knee, a bad day...

It wasn’t the prettiest finish for an U.S. Open, and most of the big names left Pebble Beach this year unhappy with how things went. Graeme McDowell of Northern Ireland is the only truly happy golfer at the moment, and even he’ll tell you he didn’t have one of his better days on the course. One of the stories out of the U.S. Open will be how the field came back to the stars, rather...
