Webb Simpson ties career low in PGA Tour debut with short putter
January 16, 2015 by
If Round 1 of the Sony Open in Hawaii was any indication, Webb Simpson should’ve made the switch to a conventional putting stroke a long time ago. In his first PGA Tour round with a conventional putter and stroke, Simpson shot 8-under 62, setting a new career low on the tour, to share the lead […]
PGA Tour tries reining in the fun at Phoenix Open 16th hole
January 14, 2015 by
What a buzzkill. The PGA Tour has decided things have gotten a little out of control at the par-3 16th hole at TPC Scottsdale, host to the Waste Management Phoenix Open.
