Well…I wonder how planned this announcement of Player’s was OR was he caught at a bad time by the press? I have no doubt there are some golfers who are “getting help” and I do think that drug testing is inevitable. In fact…let’s just do it and get on with the game guys! Enough already! Actually I bet Gary believes …

Who will win The Open? The man who would be king?

Well, I don’t know about you, but I’d love to see “The Big Easy” pull this out of the bag. He is by far my favorite player, not because I think he is the best – he’s just epitimizes the sport to me. My second choice is Monty, because he really deserves a major this year. Even with his temper, …

Baseball players dilemma…To golf or not to golf…

An interesting debate…should baseball players stay away from golf? Will it hurt their batting swing? It seems a bit ridiculous to me, but then again, I don’t play baseball – although it is my favorite sport (after golf of course). Ichiro is my hero and of course, that means the Seattle Mariners are my favorite team. I was out at …

Will becoming a parent improve your golf game?

Perspective…I guess that’s what parenting gives you when it comes to golf. It makes you realize there is more to life than a little white ball (or pink in the case of Paula C). Actually, I think parenting gives perspective on just about everything! It’s cool to hear about players who did better after they had kids. Not that I …

Happy Belated Father’s Day, Tiger!

Timing is everything they say… Sounds like Elin was working hard to make sure that baby was born at exactly the right moment. Now Tiger has lots of time to enjoy his new baby (Sam Alexis Woods) with Elin before hitting the links at the Open. Can you imagine if he had to play a playoff on Monday? He might …

Finally – equality bill set to curb golf club discrimination

It’s sometimes hard to believe we’re not living in the dark ages. I have no problem with private clubs that are specfically for one gender, male or female, but to have a golf club (that is supposed to be “open” to both sexes) treat women as second class citizens….well…it’s just too pathetic for words. A similar situation occured here in …
