Tiger Woods is at a turning point in his career. I know it may be a shock to read that, because many assume that Tiger is just on a downswing or at his rock bottom. However, now more than ever, Tiger controls his own fate. He is sitting on a pivot, if you will. We all know his current marital status, so let’s not rehash any of that. It’s old news to be honest. It is not affecting Tiger,...

This week is one of my favorite weeks of golf. Getting to see match play. Nobody can deny how much more fun it is to watch or to play it—especially for a pro.

Golf is the one sport that anyone can play at any age. Yes, you can argue for other sports, but only golf provides the common man an opportunity any time. You are never too old or young.

However, he still...

This week features some staunch competition, both for amateurs as well as professionals. While the top three golfers in the world are in Dubai, the field to be assembled at Pebble Beach is nothing to scoff at. Dustin Johnson is returning to Pebble Beach, where he will be defending his title for the tournament. However, it is the US Open at Pebble Beach that people will remember of Johnson, not the...

There is no argument at this point that there is not clear top golfer in the world. However, the question now changes from Tiger’s ability to everyone else’s ability to take ahold of the golf world. What comes into question is a golfer’s ability to maintain their game. That is where Tiger was able to hold his throne for so long, for two different time periods. Right now, that is what...

As award season comes through, there is of course not too many sports movies. However, that doesn’t mean golf hasn’t had its fair share of successes on the big screen. There have been plenty of hits that are based in such a long standing game. Old to new, there have been many movies produced about the trials and tribulations of golf. So which movies make the cut is the only question that...
