• Winners, Losers and Danger: The Week in Golf

  Stacy Lewis, Jason Duffer, Bubba Watson, Se Ri Park, What an interesting week it was in the world of golf, from a weekender’s unexpected round to disturbing injuries and breakthrough wins for two on the men’s and women’s tours. Both events on the LPGA and PGA tours were cliffhangers this week, and it was difficult …

• Hunter Mahan: The Quiet Man

  In all the hoopla over the Accenture Match Play last week, we were reduced to seeing which European would win the whole shooting match. Tiger went down in flames with the rest of his countrymen, and Rory McIllroy rolled over Lee Westwood into the finals – that should have been all she wrote. However, there …

• What’s the Matter with Paula Creamer?

  We all know that magazines have to sell news to keep subscriptions and viewership up, but it’s an increasing habit to make a lull in a golfer’s winning ways sound like a previously undiscovered asteroid that will hit the earth tomorrow at noon. I for one, am up to here with it, and intend to …

• Old Hickory: The Romance of Old World Golf

  I was surprised and delighted to learn that in this world of “heavy hitter” golf, there is still a soft spot for golf of the 1920s and beyond, particularly in the United States and Scotland. That makes sense, of course. Neither country likes to be told what to do or what to give up. In …

• Hot Old Golfer Dude, Thai Birdie Bash and Mr. Phil’s Wild Ride

  I read today that Kenny Perry was on top of the leaderboard, and that was fun, because many years ago, I watched Kenny Perry quite a bit on Sunday. He was always a cool guy, I thought, and a consistently good player. But, leading a tournament now? As it turns out, I had my dates …

  Ping K15 Iron Review  Typical of any game improvement iron, the Ping K15 irons have a wide sole, thick top line and slight offset.  As result, the club looks super easy to hit.  In addition, the K15 head features a steel cavity with lightweight titanium face.   The dull steel finish looks great on the course …

• New Kid in Town: Golf World Gets Tebowed!

  Like so much of America, I’ve been bitten by the Tim Tebow bug, especially with the New England Patriots lying in wait for the surprising Broncos this weekend. I like the guy, and I have no reason to rip on him for any reason. Not everything demands a moralistic response. Things are often just what …

• Honoring Dan Jenkins: Golf and the Fourth Estate

  I was interested in the recent announcement that the Golf Writers Association of America has named Luke Donald (European/PGA Tours), Yani Tseng (European/LPGA) and Tom Lehman (Champions Tour) as Golfers of the Year, and that the three will be honored at Augusta in April. This news aroused some curiosity about the GWAA itself, along with …

• PGA Snowbirds: Where do the Pros Go for the Winter?

  It is my unhappy task to break the bad news to golf fans everywhere about our favorite touring pros, and I do so with an appropriate sense of betrayal. As we slog through the winters at our respective places of work, piling up the pennies and cutting back on Big Macs so that we can …

• Rory McIllroy Caught What?

  Mr. McIllroy is back in the golf news again, and it’s a surprising story, considering that we hear almost nothing but the wunderkind’s stunning new achievements. Considering the trajectory of the latest young golf star out of Ireland, I certainly expected a different kind of headline this week for Rory. If anyone is hail and …
