A few weeks ago I was watching the Golf Channel and Mark Rolfing was talking about D.J. Gregory – an amazing man who is determined to overcome enormous physical challenges towalk every hole of every PGA tournament this year. Think about it – that’s 72 holes per week for 37 weeks! That’s about 750 miles! So…you might say – what’s …

Thank you Darren for bringing some common sense to this “a lot to do about nothing” golf story. Is it just me or is the media going out of its way to create friction where none really exists between Tiger and those trying to be #2. Where did Ian Poulter say he was going to beat the world’s number 1? …

Well, I’ve been a bit out of touch the past couple of weeks and couldn’t post anything, but I did try and keep up to date on what’s new in golf. And of course, on the surface, it appeared that not much was new – Tiger won again – Ernie crashed at the end…ho hum…seemed to be more of the …

Well, I guess I’m now an official PGA junkie. Yesterday, for the first time, I attended a PGA tournament (Buick Invitational) and it was not what I expected at all. Not to say it was bad – on the contrary, it was better than I hoped. I was a bit worried when I showed up at Torrey Pines to discover …

Now how cute is this! I love pictures which are not too staged. Tiger’s genuine smile at his daughter is so warm and loving. Hard to believe this is the same ruthless man that shows no mercy on the golf course. In fact, he showed no mercy at 11 years old to his dad when Tiger beat him for the …

A big congratulations goes out to the surprise winners of the Women’s World Cup of Golf this weekend – Dorothy Delasin and Jennifer Rosales of the Philippines. Well done ladies! It was a joy to watch you and your enthusiasm this weekend, rain or shine. Even my golfguy is excited you won – he thought your team spirit was amazing. …

To all University of British Columbia Alumni who love to golf… Don’t miss an exciting way to kick off your golfing season with the UBC Alumni Dinner, Dance and Golf Tournament, March 9-10, 2008 at Desert Willow in Palm Desert. So…what’s the big deal? Is this just another tournament? Oh no…this one is for a very special cause. Some background…I’m …

So, did you read this month’s Golf Digest yet? It’s a battle in our house to see who gets it first – I usually lose (my golfguy grabs it while I’m blogging :)). Anyway, I finally got my hands on it and read Johnny Miller Picks for the Class of 08. For those of you who didn’t get to read …

Well, it’s finally here – the first tournament of the season! The 2008 LPGA tour starts this week in Sun City, South Africa with the Women’s World Cup of Golf. And for me, what’s even more exciting is the fact that it’s a team event. I love team golf events! Here’s a look at the teams… The Women’s World Cup …

I don’t know about you, but I almost had to turn the TV off yesterday watching the Bob Hope Chysler Classic. That wasn’t good golf – that was just silly. I am sorry…I do enjoy watching celebrities play golf in moderation, but I’ve had my fill of George Lopez and it’s only been 1 day. And did you see the …
