You can have all the Fazios, even Tom, and all the Jones, even Rees and Robert Trent Sr. You can take Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Gary Player and Arthur Hills. Take them all, I don't care. Just leave me Pete Dye. Play this game for a while and… more »

I don't normally preview equipment reviews, but this is one I'm pretty excited about. I've been carrying around an F2 wedge in my bag for a while, but I've been avoiding testing it because it's so ugly. I glanced at it from time to time, but did a… more »

Sorry, that was a dirty trick. It looks like the sordid details about Greg Norman's personal life aren't forthcoming. He and ex-wife Laura have officially split, but it wasn't easy. Laura's attorneys had threatened to subpoena practically everyone No… more »

When I left for college, I pulled out of my driveway in a 1950 Ford loaded with a single suitcase, a six-pack of Schlitz and a yearning to get real smart. My parents waved goodbye from the yard. I didn't exactly become a man, but it was a start. St… more »

I blogged the other day about how the Fed Ex Cup needs to be tweaked, and how the penultimate tournament, the Tour Championship, should be winner-take-all. Now, it comes to light, after the math geniuses analyzed the complicated numbers that no one ot… more »
