Why Tiger Woods’ 18 WGC Wins May Be His Most Underrated Achievement

When evaluating Tiger Woods’ illustrious professional career, most will initially gravitate toward his 14 major championships and 79 PGA Tour wins. Woods’ major championship tally, in particular, is without question the most high-profile achievement of his career. This is partially due to the historical significance of the four professional majors and partially due to the importance Woods... 

Ryder Cup 2016: Final Grades for Team USA

Perhaps it was the Ryder Cup task force. Perhaps it was the endless parade of vice captains that would have had the PGA of America renting out an additional floor at the team hotel. Perhaps it was a combination of a red-hot American team combined with a poor European team that arrived with six Ryder Cup rookies to Hazeltine National Golf Club in Chaska, Minnesota. Whatever the reason may be, the curse...

Players Whose Games Are Best Suited to Win the 2016 Open Championship

The Open Championship is perhaps the most challenging of the four professional majors. While the overall carnage might pale in comparison to what is typically experienced at majors such as the U.S Open, the Open Championship provides an altogether different kind of challenge. When a player arrives at a major such as the U.S. Open or PGA Championship, the vast majority of preparation will involve simply... 

8 Amateur Golfers Who Will Be Stars in 5 Years

The Open has historically been something of a coming-out party for many of the top amateur golfers in the world. Justin Rose tied for fourth at the 1998 Open Championship shortly before turning pro and has gone on to win more than 20 tournaments around the world including the 2013 U.S. Open. Rory McIlroy first arrived on the radar screen of most golf fans when he posted a score of 68 during the opening... 

Moments That Defined the 2016 U.S. Open at Oakmont

Oakmont Country Club is widely regarded as one of the best U.S. Open venues in the country, and it certainly did not disappoint at the 116th playing of the U.S. Open Championship. This major had it all. There were gruesome injuries, epic rain storms, Tin Cup-esque stories, meltdowns, triumphs and a little bit of controversy sprinkled on top. In the end, a worthy champion emerged and Oakmont’s... 

US Open Picks 2016: Dark-Horse Candidates to Win

Oakmont Country Club has the reputation of being one of the most difficult golf courses in America.

He added, “This is arguably the hardest course in America.... 

Jason Day Free of Weaknesses That Will Keep Competition Chasing Him for Years

It wasn’t long after Tiger Woods arrived at his first PGA Tour event that he began leaving both fans and competitors awestruck by his incredible power. Spectators could often be seen climbing trees just to get a brief glimpse of one of Woods’ mammoth tee shots, while competitors were likely wishing they could somehow hide behind those same trees in order to escape the embarrassment of watching... 

Don’t Count Tiger Woods out Just Yet

Tiger Woods turned 40 years old this past December, which has many of us who have followed him since his amateur days asking ourselves where in the world the past 25 years have gone? His last major championship title came nearly eight years ago. That was three months before the world financial crises, six months before Barack Obama was elected president and three years before Jordan Spieth would even... 

Why Jordan Spieth’s Masters Meltdown Makes Us Further Appreciate Tiger Woods

There’s an old saying that anything becomes normal if it happens often enough. Tiger Woods may have initially shocked the world his 12 stroke victory at the 1997 Masters and then four consecutive major titles between 2000 and 2001. But as he continued to rack up one major championship win after another, somewhere along the line Woods’ absurd domination of the professional game started to...
