Stuart Appleby breaks four year drought with a win at Old White. Oh, and he shot a 59. Yawn.
I’m very happy for Stuart Appleby and his amazing final round 59 at the Old White course, Greenbriar Classic. Look at this series of scores: 66, 68, 65, 59. That is super sub par. Perhaps next year they’ll have to set up Old White a little tougher? Good to see Apples in the win column [...]
Golf Fans Versus Team Sport Fans
As golf fans, we are more passionate about the players and the game. Unless you have some hometown player, generally you may have many players you root for to win.

Tiger Woods Looks To Firestone To Redeem His Season
by Jeff Skinner
It shouldn’t come as a surprise that Tiger Woods has announced that he will be playing in the W.G.C. Bridgestone Invitational. After all, he has only won this tournament seven out of ten times. If any place is going to make Tiger feel at home it is Firestone Country Club. Seven wins and [...]
Do You Play By the Rules?
That's the question we're posing today. Choose your answer below.
Golf Digest did an undercover operation a couple years ago in which the magazine had rules officials surreptitiously follow and observe groups of golfers around a course, cataloging their rules violations. Perhaps the most interesting finding was that many golfers believed themselves to be following the rules, but they just didn't have a great familiarity with some of the rules. So although their intentions were good...
