Martin Kaymer, Nick Watney, Bubba and Other Transitions Tidbits

  As the fog started to clear early last Thursday morning, he was easy to spot on the putting green at Innisbrook. While Nick Watney exchanged laughs and stories with a couple of caddies, Martin Kaymer went about his business, dressed in black, with a calm exterior and a silky putting stroke. Kaymer was prepping for his day with Watney and Bubba Watson, the world’s No. 1 was... 

Sean Foley Has Thin Skin When It Comes to Tiger Woods Critics

Sean Foley should probably have figured this out a long time ago. Sean Foley should know that Tiger Woods isn’t the only one under a microscope these days. Sean Foley should know that once you enter the whirling dervish that is the world of Tiger Woods, you better have thick skin. Foley doesn’t. He’s not real happy with Brandel Chamblee and Johnny Miller and he took them to task with... 

Tiger Woods Has Become the PGA Tour’s New ‘Devil Ball’

Tiger Woods may be ready to claim a new, old nickname on the PGA Tour. Just call him “Devil Ball.” But you see, Tiger is not the first “Devil Ball” on the PGA Tour. We must digress, back to the late 70s, there was a tour player who looked so very, very awesome on the practice tee. Kinda, sorta the way we hear John Cook raving about how well Tiger “clicked” a... 

Golf Now Has a Magical Storybook with a Message of Hope

Tiger Woods was the victim of bullies his first day of kindergarten way back in 1981. It wasn’t pretty: was tied to a tree and taunted. That wasn’t his only problem. He battled a stuttering problem which he worked to overcome and did. One of today’s biggest societal problems is the presence of bullies. It’s something that’s come into the national spotlight, and some high-profile... 

Tiger Woods’ Dubai Spit Wad WAS a Big Deal and Here’s Why

Big deal or no big deal? Fact is, the spitting incident involving Tiger Woods on Sunday in Dubai WAS a big deal. The reasons are very clear. We’re talking about major cultural differences between Middle East countries and the United States. Ask anyone who has traveled abroad in the land of sand and there’s a huge list of “no-no” behavior. We’re also talking dollars—huge... 

PGA Merchandise Show 2011: A Lot Of Good Stuff and "That Thing"

The PGA Merchandise Show was its usual, overwhelming self last week in Orlando. Got a good look at that thing that’s not like the other things—you know, the R11 driver—but there was so very much there, with 1,000 exhibitors that ranged from the marketing monster that is TaylorMade-Adidas to the guy who had a small table and his golf gloves that have a pouch on the inside to insert... 

Tiger Woods: ‘Despicable He’ Tanked It At Torrey

There’s no truth to the rumor that Tiger Woods will play himself in a sequel to the movie Despicable Me. But there is truth to the fact that Woods tanked it at Torrey last Sunday, and his playing partner, Brendan Steele, agrees. Steele, a rookie on the PGA Tour, was excited about playing for the first time with Woods, as you might expect. Steele was elated by the fact that Woods was nice to him,... 

Tiger Woods: What We Learned About Tiger At Torrey and Where He’s Headed

Tiger Woods is digging hard into his third novel in the Tiger Trilogy: Lord of the Swings. His latest chapter was written last week at Torrey Pines, the place he can easily call home, the place he has dominated, the place where he has found it so very easy to win again, again and again and then some more, just for emphasis. This start of the 2011 season for El Tigre was a week of huge anticipation... 

Tiger Woods: The King Of Torrey Pines Drops Three Birdies and One F-Bomb

Tiger Woods wasn’t the king of anything last year, but he’s always been the King of Torrey Pines. With seven wins there in his pro career, he’s done everything at Torrey but stash the deed to the magnificent property. So it was fitting that the 2011 version of Tiger would start his season on the property that has been his, the courses that have treated him like the king he used to...

Tiger Woods is back next week. So is Phil Mickelson. Thanks to the Farmers Insurance event at Torrey Pines, Woods and Mickelson are playing in January, and that in and of itself is an eye opener.
