Ian Poulter putted 1-handed — with some success — at Phx Open
February 6, 2016 by
Ian Poulter had just hit a great tee shot to the par-3 16th at TPC Scottsdale in Friday’s second round of the Waste Management Phoenix Open. He had left himself 6 feet for birdie. So what does he do?

Tiger Woods’ comeback ends early, but with some positives
June 28, 2014 by
You didn’t really expect him to win, did you? Tiger Woods returned to action at the Quicken Loans National for his first tournament since back surgery, his first competitive play since early March. He cautioned that he’d be rusty, and he was indeed that: maybe not tractor-left-to-the-elements-for-a-generation rusty, but certainly needing-more-than-an-oil-can rusty. Playing the notoriously […]

Si from Duck Dynasty offers up some incredibly helpful golf tips
October 23, 2013 by
One of my favorite Lee Trevino quotes, which is like picking your favorite piece of Da Vinci work or Adele song, is the one about golf instruction. Trevino was famous for never having a swing instructor, and his reasoning was as simple as it was true – “I’ve never met an instructor who could beat […]

June 24, 2013 by
The latest British Open odds are out, and it should surprise no one that Tiger Woods, still the World No. 1, is an 8/1 favorite. The only other player under 20/1 odds is Rory McIlroy at 12/1. Adam Scott and Justin Rose are 20/1, which seems like a decent bet, and Lee Westwood, Luke Donald, […]
