I am feeling a little giddy this week. Why? No, it wasn’t because I picked Florida in my bracket (although I acquitted myself half decently in that endeavor picking half the final four correctly). I am feeling a little excitement because The Masters is this weekend. I must be an old man, because I really [...]
Another PGA even, another Tiger win. Tiger just seems to be outlasting the other players this year. Two wins in playoffs and . a win in less than spectacular fashion: Despite a bogey-bogey finish on the Blue Monster, Woods closed with a 3-under 69 for a one-shot victory over David Toms and Colombian rookie Camilo [...]
Could we have a repeat of last year’s awesome duel between Lefty and Tiger? Well, it is only Thursday but things are shaping up nicely. Woods fires 8-under 64, leads Lefty by one at Doral: Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson resumed their duel at opposite ends of Doral on Thursday, and the outcome didn’t change. [...]
UPDATE: Tiger pulled out the win in a playoff. It wasn’t always pretty, but he got it done once again. CBS has to be happy. In his first tournament of the year Tiger Woods looked a little rusty for the first two rounds. But heading into the final round on Sunday he is one shot [...]
After a brutal final round in the US Open and a battlefield promotion from the Nationwide Tour, Jason Gore finally held it together on Sunday at a PGA Tour event. Gore won the 84 Lumber Classic for his first PGA Tour win. The popular Gore just took a big step in his life: “It’s pretty [...]
There won’t be any high stakes duels against Vijay Singh at this week’s PGA Tour Deutsche Bank Championship, but that doesn’t mean Tiger Woods doesn’t want to win. A first round 65 gave him the lead heading into Saturday (the tournament plays Friday through Monday). Last year Tiger relinquished his #1 ranking after Singh beat [...]
Tiger couldn’t make a putt to save his life (except for when it counted on 16) but still managed to win the NEC World Golf Championship by a stroke. Chris DiMarco finally got his putter going and shot a 68 to wrack up yet another second. Vijay Singh shot a 67 to tie for third [...]
Take a look at the NEC leaderboard. Tiger Woods and Vijay Singh are back at the top (with Swede Henrik Stenson). All three players are at minus four with Chris DiMarco and Davis Love at minus three and Phil Mickelson at minus one. With so many big names battling it out this should be an [...]
Just as I had predicted Phil Mickelson won the weather delayed PGA this morning. Okay, so he didn’t birdie both 17 and 18 like I thought he would, but the birdie on 18 was enough for a one shot edge over Elkington and Thomas Bjorn. Neither player could birdie 18 to send it to a [...]
Well, Tiger gave it everything he had but it doesn’t look like it will be enough. Tiger shot a 68 to finish at two under par. He is currently sitting at a tie for third. But the tournament was suspended because of lighting and will resume on Monday. The Leaderboard shows Phil Mickelson at four [...]
