She’s done, finished, and will announce her retirement from competitive golf later this week in Mexico City. Bad news for women’s golf. As if it needs that.

You just had to know the guy was in trouble when he couldn’t beat Lawrence Taylor on something called Donald J. Trump’s Pompous World of Golf.

Augusta National abruptly shut down the birdie buffet before Friday’s second round. While the field was feasting on Thursday, there was a famine on Friday but a pair of Brits managed to keep their own sub-par picnic open for business. The 74th Masters at the halfway point has developed a distinct British accent. In the UK, they used to refer to Lee Westwood as the “Tiger Woods of Europe”...

It was so, very eerie. There it was; Nike’s latest commercial offering an emotionless Tiger Woods, who was staring at us while his deceased father’s voice asked some haunting questions. “I want to find our what your thinking was, what your feelings are and did you learn anything?” Woods answered his father Thursday with a return to competitive golf and a career best opening...
