While Scott definitely lifted a weight by notching his first major victory, there were several other players whose respective payouts gave them some added security and perks. Two of them won top rookie honors in their first seasons on the PGA...

Words don’t quite do justice to describe Tianlang Guan’s outstanding play on the course at the 2013 Masters Tournament. What may be even more impressive is the teenage sensation’s level of maturity in the media spotlight at such a young age, which indicates the 14-year-old will be ready to be a superstar in the near future. Guan became the youngest competitor to ever play at Augusta...

Far more favorable scoring conditions defined the third round of the 2013 Masters Tournament on Saturday. Plenty of shuffling occurred in the field, including a move made by Brandt Snedeker on the back nine to tie 2009 Masters champion Angel Cabrera atop the leaderboard. That duo sits at seven under overall with a one-stroke lead entering the final round over Adam Scott. Snedeker and overnight leader...

Rory McIlroy shot himself out of the 2013 Masters Tournament during Saturday’s third round. The No. 2-ranked player in the world posted a shocking and disappointing seven-over 79 at Augusta National. That leaves him at plus-five overall—well off the leading pace set by Jason Day, Marc Leishman and Angel Cabrera (-6) as of 5:40 p.m. ET. McIlroy‘s day got off to a relatively promising...

The third round of the 2013 Masters Tournament has seen plenty of fluctuation on moving day thus far. A lot of contenders are still on the course, but several dark horses have made a lot of noise in the early going. Most notably, Tim Clark fired a round of 67 thanks to a scintillating 31 on the first nine holes. The South African vaulted from relative obscurity to just three off the lead by the time...

Mother Nature has a chance at intervening during at least the first day of the 2013 Masters Tournament, but Augusta National should otherwise be in the clear for the year’s first major. In looking at the forecast provided by AccuWeather.com, Thursday’s action may be postponed due to a 59-percent chance of rain in which severe thunderstorms are expected. Friday’s prospective Round...

Billy Horschel fired a two-under on Saturday at the Valero Texas Open. That got him to 10 under overall through three rounds, and he now holds a two-stroke advantage over Charley Hoffman and Jim Furyk. The fiery 26-year-old now holds his first 54-hole lead after a hard-fought day at TPC San Antonio. A difficult course was made more difficult by blustery conditions, which yielded no score lower than...

As might be expected, Tiger Woods is the oddsmakers’ favorite at 5-2 to win his fifth Masters Tournament. However, Dustin Johnson headlines several likely contenders who should challenge for the green jacket despite odds of victory set at 28-1 or worse as of Friday. Woods has won his past two starts on the PGA Tour, so it makes sense that arguably the greatest golfer of all time has the prohibitive...

Tiger Woods‘ recent resurgence has put him atop the world rankings once again, but he will not be able to convert the momentum into a fifth green jacket at the 2013 Masters. Two consecutive PGA Tour titles are certainly an encouraging sign for the living legend, as is the extraordinary putting that has been the driving force behind his back-to-back triumphs. Time and time again, though, the major...
