While Tiger Woods was the standard by which all other golfers measured themselves for years, it appears...

When one golf season comes to an end, it’s only natural to look ahead to the next season. When you look ahead, you think about the upcoming majors and other key events like the Ryder Cup. Since there will be no Ryder Cup in 2013—one disaster every two years is enough—it’s all about the majors. Despite what they say in Augusta and in Great Britain, the U.S. Open is the most important...

However, as long as he...
