Steve Stricker is now in with a minus-16 for two days and the lead to start weekend play at the John Deere Classic. His closest competitor, one 59 shooting son of a gun Paul Goydos, is still on the course, currently at minus-15, but still has to play 10 holes. Paul Goydos or Steve Stricker will obviously win this tournament, as those two have figured out something that no one else seems to be able...

I look cooler than Paul Goydos. Hey, it’s Steve Stricker here. Just wanted to let you know I shot 60 on Thursday, but with all the hoopla over Paul’s 59, no one seemed to notice, as I started late. This sure is an easy course for my game. Guess what, Paul? We have to play three more days on a course I love, and I’m only one down. Good luck Paul. Your going to need it. Read...

59: That’s a number few golfers ever see, unless you’re talking about the front nine, maybe. Al Geiberger had the record for quite a while with his 59, before Chip Beck turned one in Vegas, and there might have been one more somewhere. Al Geiberger signed his autograph Mr. 59 for many years after his low round. Now, Paul Goydos has carded a 59 for the lead in the first round of the John...

Justin Rose is the most noticeable newcomer of the leaders of the Fed-Ex Cup point list. His two PGA Tour wins in four weeks, vaulted him to second overall in the Fed-Ex Cup point standings with 1542 points, only trailing Ernie Els. Els is in first place as well with two wins and 1751 points. A few high finishes have him slightly ahead of Rose for the season. Now in third, is Phil Mickelson, looking...

It would be nice for an American player to win the John Deere Classic, to be played at the TPC Course in Silvis, Illinois starting Thursday, July 8. At Deere Run, accuracy is rewarded with accessible pins, and birdies galore, and low scorers will have plenty of company this weekend, barring inclement weather. Steve Stricker won this event last year. Coincidentally, before I checked, I selected him...

Justin Rose has a five shot lead with nine to play in the final round at the AT&T National. Let’s call it and go have a beer. Rose has been unchallenged by a weak PGA field and will win this event easily. Yes, there are nine holes left, but this one’s in the refrigerator. The light’s off and the butter’s cooling. Ryan Moore, Jeff Overton, and Charlie Wi, who has...

Was I not just here? Am I feeling funny? Last time I started a tournament with a sizable lead, I failed miserably. These are the thoughts of Justin Rose, leader by four shots at the AT&T National Tournament, going into Sunday’s final round. The players behind Rose are all good enough to score well, so none of this hang on to the lead rubbish today, Mr. Rose. Let’s see a professional,...

Justin Rose is once again on top of a leader board, posting minus seven for two days’ play at the ATT National to lead Charlie Wi and Jason Day by one shot. Tiger Woods started off his day plus three after only six holes on Saturday. So he is toast, fried to a crackly crunch, for this event. Currently, Tiger Woods is a non-factor, speaking about tournament winning and competing at the highest...

Tiger Woods played three shots better on Friday, than the previous three over par on Thursday, but already has much ground for one mortal man to overcome. Notice the word mortal. Delilah has cut Sampson’s hair. Kyptonite has sapped all of Superman’s strength. The Flash ‘s ring broke and his suit won’t pop out. Say it isn’t so, Moe! How many times can a man tee it up, before...

It’s shots from places like this that will keep Tiger from mounting a charge on Friday, as his accuracy remains in question off the tee. We certainly are craving those close iron shots to the pin that result in tap-in birdies. Where are they, Tiger? It’s day two as Woods is minus one after six, after a disappointing first day plus three, while plenty of people are below par. People who...
