Lexi Thompson threw out the first pitch at a Marlins game and it was ugly
May 1, 2014 by
There are plenty of compliments one could give Lexi Thompson. At just 19, Thompson already has four LPGA wins including the 2014 Kraft Nabisco Championship, her first major title, and she seems to be on a track for super-duper stardom. But, I’m not sure Thompson will go the route of Michael Jordan and give up […]

David Duval said he will step away from the game if he doesn’t produce in 2014
December 13, 2013 by
If there is a poster boy for just how cruel golf can be, it’s David Duval. The former No. 1 player in the world went from British Open champion to basic obscurity in a span of just a couple of seasons, randomly pinging our radar like he did at the 2009 U.S. Open where he […]

October 30, 2013 by
For video game golf aficionados, Monday’s news that EA Sports and Tiger Woods have parted company came as tragic news, compounding the pain from earlier this year when EA announced it would not be producing a golf game in 2014.

September 19, 2013 by
For all the cracks we make about this crazy game of golf, the fact is, we love it. It’s the most beautiful sport in the world set in some of the most beautiful places, from Pebble Beach’s famed 18th hole to Amen Corner at Augusta National. But maybe the most honest place I’ve ever seen […]
