I am a huge James Bond fan. But more than that, I’m a huge Sean Connery fan – the greatest James Bond ever IMHO. So when I saw this story in the Daily Telegraph Sport from the UK, I just had to share it. I realize that I can’t add any brilliant commentary to this article, but I thought that …

LPGA mandates English in Women’s Golf – Please tell me it isn’t so!
When I first heard about this ruling by the LPGA I said to myself…”Don’t get involved – no big deal – just a sponsor grab.” And then I thought about it some more and I realized that this is way beyond a sponsor suck-up – this could change the face of women’s golf as a sport globally. So now I …

Well, we’re at episode 5 of Highway 18 and we’ve yet to see an elimination. I’m pretty happy about that – I’d like to see a close race to the finish and I’ve grown to like all the teams – all for different reasons. It will be tough to watch any of them go home. Tonight we saw the teams …

Well, things certainly have been interesting for Raul and Jameica. First episode, they came “this close” to going home and now they enjoy immunity and watch the others struggle through a challenge where they call the shots.

…and up and down and up and down…for Asheigh and Ashley. Episode 3 and 4 of Highway 18 were pretty topsy-turvy days for these two passionate young ladies. Can you imagine being 20 minutes ahead of your competition to find out it really didn’t matter? All the pain and exhaustion for nothing, especially when the day before you were awarded …

Well episode 3 and 4 should be called the Rollercoaster 18, not Highway 18 for Rob and Charlotte. They certainly did dodge a pretty big bullet on week 3 and that “big break” helped them breeze through episode 4 to stay on top of the score board with Jay and Peach. I was rather surprised at Ashley Davis’ “Yes!” exclamation …

It’s been two weeks since I’ve been able to watch any of Highway 18 as I’ve been working hard on my tan in sunny Playa Del Carmen 🙂 Actually, I’ve really missed the show. I get Golf Channel by satellite here, but for some reason, Highway 18 airs 1 week behind the USA and Canada. Oh well, I finally got …

Have you ever been behind the ropes for an LPGA or PGA championship? Me neither. But I’ve always wanted to be up close and personal with the best in the world and so someday, my day will come. Until then, I’m going to have to rely on my golfing friends to tell me all about it. This past weekend, I …

No matter who you talk to about Highway 18, one thing is for sure, the good ole boys, Parker and Andy come into the conversation. They are a hoot – no question about it. Those country boys keep you laughing. I couldn’t wait to talk to them both about their experience on Highway 18 and the backstage joking around that …

As much as I love the PGA, I did miss watching Highway 18 this week on Golf Channel. But the good news is that I was able to take the time to interview 3 more of the contestants on the show and get their thoughts on the first two episodes and what happened behind the cameras. Many of the TV …
