Why Golf Needs Tiger Woods at No. 1

Tiger Woods walks with the game’s all-time great players. He belongs in golf’s all-time foursome. For my money, that means he plays his round with Bobby Jones, Ben Hogan and Jack Nicklaus.

Winners and Losers from the PGA Tour’s Tampa Bay Championship at Innisbrook

Most of the big names chose to pass on the Tampa Bay Championship at Innisbrook. There was no Tiger Woods, no Rory McIlroy, no Phil Mickelson and no Brandt Snedeker.

Ranking the 10 Best Putters on PGA Tour Right Now

Every week, the best players in the world try to separate themselves from each other and win tournaments on the PGA tour.

Did Rory McIlroy Rediscover His Game in Final Round at Doral?

The early part of the golf season has not been kind to Rory McIlroy. He has started slowly on the PGA Tour in 2013. He was a first-round loser in the Accenture Match Play Championship in February.

Winners and Losers from the 2013 WGC-Cadillac Championship
