That much was known long ago. What's ludicrous about Finchem's latest mess is that we're even having this discussion. As ESPN Radio's Colin Cowherd said toda… http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/doug.carey/2006/09/09/drug_testing_for_the_pga_tour_let_s_star#comments http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/doug.carey?tempskin=_rss2&disp=comments&p=2602 http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/doug.carey/2006/06/24/phil_mickelson_needs_time_to_mope_after Sat, 24 Jun 2006 10:14:46 +0000 Doug Carey General 2086@http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/ Dear Phil: Just read where you're withdrawing from the annual ING Par-3 Shootout at Treetops Resort in Gaylord, Mich. Probably a good idea. Why bring your family to an event you always enjoy and start moving forward with things? Instead, stay home and… http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/doug.carey/2006/06/24/phil_mickelson_needs_time_to_mope_after#comments http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/doug.carey?tempskin=_rss2&disp=comments&p=2086 http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/doug.carey/2006/05/01/hurricane_tim_finchem_gets_it_right_in_n Mon, 01 May 2006 09:01:22 +0000 Doug Carey General 1742@http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/ Quite a weekend for the good people of New Orleans. From Jazzfest to Reggie Bush and the Zurich Classic, the Big Easy is back. Maybe not entirely, sure, but the signs are good. With all the excitement surrounding Bush, it'll be easy to minimize the PG… http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/doug.carey/2006/05/01/hurricane_tim_finchem_gets_it_right_in_n#comments http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/doug.carey?tempskin=_rss2&disp=comments&p=1742 http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/doug.carey/2006/01/06/blame_mercedes_yawner_on_pga_tour_boss Sat, 07 Jan 2006 04:00:04 +0000 Doug Carey General 1071@http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/ For all the criticism Bud Selig receives – and deservedly so – he’s no longer the worst commissioner in sports. Just days into the new year, PGA Tour boss Tim Finchem has successfully wrested away the title. In no other major sport does opening… http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/doug.carey/2006/01/06/blame_mercedes_yawner_on_pga_tour_boss#comments http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/doug.carey?tempskin=_rss2&disp=comments&p=1071 http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/doug.carey/2005/10/14/ballesteros_wasn_t_really_missed Sat, 15 Oct 2005 02:09:07 +0000 Doug Carey General 890@http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/ Some comebacks are just unnecessary. After this week's Madrid Open, we can add Seve Ballesteros to the list.Absent from competition for the past two years due to injuries, Seve talked a good game heading into Madrid. "Winning is very possible," he to… http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/doug.carey/2005/10/14/ballesteros_wasn_t_really_missed#comments http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/doug.carey?tempskin=_rss2&disp=comments&p=890 http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/doug.carey/2005/10/02/does_australia_hold_the_key_to_affordabl Sun, 02 Oct 2005 11:01:19 +0000 Doug Carey General 864@http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/ Want to make golf more accessible for American kids? Look toward Australia, mate. As Stuart Appleby told the San Francisco Chronicle, "Golf is way more affordable in Australia than it is here (in the U.S.). It's not as elitist a sport over there.

For what, you ask? A profanity-laced press conference? Punching a belligerent fan? Showing up drunk? Nothing that bad, fortunately. Instead, Garcia was fined for kicking an advertising board durin… http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/doug.carey/2005/09/07/sergio_keeps_it_real_gets_fined#comments http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/doug.carey?tempskin=_rss2&disp=comments&p=781 http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/doug.carey/2005/08/02/phil_mickelson_how_to_lead_a_balanced_li Tue, 02 Aug 2005 20:44:27 +0000 Doug Carey General 648@http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/ It’s a good thing golf is an individual sport, because Phil Mickelson would be a lousy teammate. Ryder Cup fans already know this, of course, but just imagine Lefty suiting up for Bill Belichick this week. Mickelson: I’m going to have to miss week… http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/doug.carey/2005/08/02/phil_mickelson_how_to_lead_a_balanced_li#comments http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/doug.carey?tempskin=_rss2&disp=comments&p=648
