It’s not a world anyone would wish on their worst enemy. Well, okay, maybe you would wish it on your worst enemy. Maybe not their second worst enemy, though. The world is that of Tiger Woods in the last, oh, let’s say six months. I don’t think I need to recap this period for anyone, do I? Let’s just say things haven’t really gone Tiger’s way of late. Colin Montgomerie,...

Rumors have been swirling that Tiger Woods may be close to asking Sean Foley with some swing help. The 35 year old Canadian has been working with PGA pros for a few years, ever since he started helping fellow Canadian Stephen Ames. Foley still works with Ames, as well as Englishman Justin Rose, and Americans Hunter Mahan and Sean O’Hair. Foley is in Columbus this weekend for the Memorial, as...

What do these two golfers have in common, you ask? You know where I’m going with this, don’t you? Do they both like barefoot walks through water hazards in Great Britian? Do they like pina coladas and getting caught in the rain? Do they like curling up with a cozy book in front of a roaring fireplace? No? How about this: Do they both need to remove their own fingers from the death grip...

Interesting groupings for Wednesday’s skins game at the Memorial. Jack Nicklaus, instead of grouping himself with Tiger Woods, like we assumed he would, has chosen instead to put himself in a group with Phil Mickelson. Jack explains it as a chance to play with Phil, because last year Mickelson had to skip the skins game. But this does beg the question: couldn’t Jack have played with...

Muirfield Village in Dublin, Ohio, just outside of Columbus, is the sight of this weekend’s Memorial Tournament. The golf course built by Jack Nicklaus first held the Memorial in 1976. In addition to the annual tournament every year, Muirfield has hosted the 1986 Junior U.S. Amateur, the 1987 Ryder Cup Matches, the 1992 U.S. Amateur and the 1998 Solheim Cup. The course, number 16 on Golf Digest’s...

The heir to the Tiger Woods’ throne is a young gun. He has a beautiful swing and is a straight hitter. Problem is, he only hits it about 165 yards right now. He goes by the name Brayden Bozak. Haven’t heard of him yet? Well, that may be because he is only six years old. If you don’t mind waiting a few years (well, maybe 15 or 20), he may be the rightful heir to King...

Corey Pavin seems to have a good head on his shoulders. Smart guy. Competitive. Should make a fine Ryder Cup captain. On Sunday, however, Pavin told Reuters that Tiger Woods is no shoe-in for his Ryder Cup team in October. In fact, Pavin added, “I’m not going to treat him different than any other player.” Woods is currently 11th on the list of Ryder Cup points for the Americans....

Tiger Woods’s latest return to golf will be at The Memorial next week. The Golf Channel reported Woods will return to golf at Muirfield Village to try and defend his victory last year at the course built by Jack Nicklaus. Many of the players use The Memorial as a tune-up for the U.S. Open. Muirfield Village is one of the better conditioned courses year and year out on tour and a favorite...

It is kind of the lull before the storm. Golf’s break between its first major and its second. At a shade over two months between The Masters and the U.S. Open, it is simply too long. Apparently I’m not the only one who feels this way. Have you seen golf’s ratings lately? With Tiger resting his neck, golf has struggled without its ratings magnet. And when Phil decides to skip...

Golf Pros love it. Golf Course Superintendents hate it. What is it? A little device known as the Stimpmeter. It was developed back in 1935 by an amateur golfer from Massachusetts, Edward Stimpson. The USGA first used the instrument in 1976 at the U.S. Open, and it was made available to golf course superintendents in 1978. That is the key point. The device was made for use by golf course superintendents,...
