Ames is gonna be pissed... http://www.tsn.ca/golf/news_story/?ID=216072&hubname=

So, mid-way in the first round 36-hole matches: Furyk is 5-down to Karlsson, through 19. Woods is 2-down to Micheel through 19. Mike is 2-up on Scott through 21. I wish I was home today. :(

Ok Fantasy Pool junkies. Her's another one for you and for anyone who likes the Match Play. :thumbsup Colby has set up another fantasy pool for the WGC Match Play Championships coming next week. The 64-man field for the Match Play, to be played Feb. 20-24 in Tucson, Ariz., will not be final...

Lucas Glover?? LUCAS GLOVER??

Mike Weir is going with a new look at the PGA. I think he needed to change something to regain his form. His pairing for the first two rounds, with Duval and Curtis, also might give a little spark. Go Weirsy!!!!! :thumbsup

"Michelle Wie finally makes a cut against the boys and it's half-a-world away, against a no-name field on a Podunk tour. Tough break for her two regular stops on the PGA Tour." Can someone tell me what Podunk is? I know what he's trying to say (Alan Shypnuk from SI), but I don't get it.

Some of you may be familiar with the blog I run, chapeaunoirgolf.com, which focuses solely on golf apparel. A big thank you goes out to everyone from ottawagolf.com who has popped over to my site since its inception ten months ago, and to Dan whose work here gave me inspiration to go out there...

Let's stir the pot. Suzy Whaley has decided to enter the Greater Hartford Open in July, where she will become the first woman to qualify and play in a PGA TOUR event. She qualified for the tournament by winning the PGA Connecticut Sectional in September, the first woman to do so. She played...

The last one had a rather disappointing end to it (a tie): So, this year, the US team has one player outside the top 25 in the world ranking, the International team has 6. Can the US play like a team and win this time? Or will Vijay, Mike, et al, triumph?

Anyone else read up on this Super League? Saudi Arabia sponsored and would pay the best players in the world a crap load of cash to play. The PGA and The European Tour have both said that any players joining this league would be banned from playing on tour. :thumbsdow

PICK the top 5 at the masters Beside Everyones name is a number. If you one of your 5 players finishes in the top 5, you will receive that many points towards your total. If you pick a player not listed, he will be worth 50 points if he finnishes in the top 5. Person with the highest total...

I wrote a piece on my blog last night about Rickie Fowler being asked to turn his hat around in the media center on Monday. Click the link in my signature to have a look. What do you guys think? This is getting a lot of comments around the internet this morning...

Time to talk golf for a change in here guys.:cool Maybe it's a sign of things to come for some of our favorites this week at the Bob Hope Classic:-) After last week's 63, David Duval shoots another sub par round with a 3 under 69 :thumbsup Mike Weir got off to a good start with 6...

Greetings ... Like many others, I was hoping that Camilo Villegas would finish high enough to earn a Masters invitation. Yes, it's true that Augusta National could still invite him via the special category of "International Player not otherwise eligible". But do you know what would be...

Okay, here's the question. Will Jack Nicklaus make the cut at his last British Open at St Andrews this week? For a bit more fun post whether he'll make it or not and by how many shots. I'll start us off by saying that he will make it, but only just, by 2 shots. Over to you!

Hmmm. I wonder if this will generate a few posts...:stirthepo http://www.tsn.ca/golf/news_story.asp?id=137058

Okay ladies and gents, better late than never - take your best shot. Let get together to have a WGC-Accenture Match Play Championship Pool!!! What follows is the rules and the pairings for day 1 Rules 1. All bracket selections must be made no later than 11:00 am EST the day of the...

Much has changed for Tiger Woods since his private life spectacularly unraveled just over a year ago but his appetite for winning golf tournaments remains as sharp as ever. More...

I know he uses Vokey wedges and a Scottie putter, but I heard he switched to Titliest irons as Taylormade won't and isn't going to make a left handed blade. Anyone know? When you go to the PGA site to see whats in a the bag it only shows from the Fry's Open.

Now that Tiger is missing the weekend for the first time in seven years, I have a question for my fellow OGers. The record number of consecutive cuts made by Tiger Woods stands at 142, or does it? According to the stats, Tiger played in 31 events during that stretch that had no cut at all....

This week the LPGA travels to Canada for the playing of the CP Women's Open. Brooke Henderson will be trying to defend the title she won last year when she fired a final round 65 to win by four strokes over runner-up Angel Yin. Here is my preview and much more: ...

PEBBLE BEACH — If Tiger Woods isn't all the way back, he's close enough. More...

This week the LPGA moves to the state of Michigan for the playing of the Meijer LPGA Classic For Simply Give. Here is my preview and much more: http://www.tonyslpgareport.com/

Is it just me or are you guys tired of the coverage Tiger is getting, it was all about Tiger, what he did yesterday, what he did the hole before, what he had for breakfast, what color underwear he had on...blah, blah, blah...what about the rest of the great players? Dont get me wrong, I'm the...

So I watched the post comments at the open thinking how much I don't like phony phil. But he keeps talking and very honest and hard on himself. I begin to see a chink in my opinion. Then I watch the GC last nite and see him subject himselft to the same harsh questions over and over. But guess...

What the hell happened to JB Holmes today?!?!?!?!

I keep losing the connection after about 2 minutes, and have to refresh. Very frustrating. Anyone else having problems?

The LPGA moves to the state of Minnesota for the playing of the KPMG Women's PGA Championship. Sung Hyun Park will be trying to defend this championship that she won last year in a playoff over Nasa Hataoka and So Yeon Ryu. Here is my preview and a whole lot more: ...

Dave sez : "When Phil's at his best, I'm thinking nobody can beat him," said Pelz. Asked if that included Woods, Pelz decided to elaborate, at the risk of providing unnecessary bulletin-board fodder for the Woods camp. "You bet it does," said Pelz. "If Phil's long swing is good, his short...

Jin Young Ko broke a record held by Tiger Woods since the year 2000. Most people thought this record would never be broken. Full story: www.tonyslpgareport.com/

What a great test of golf for the pros. Just a beautiful links style course. Good conditions this morning but it could get messy real quick.

The Solheim is being contested this week. Lest you think that the ladies don't play exciting golf, think again. These matches should be first rate. Let's hope that some of their competitive fires rub off on those of us who will be in Belleville next week. If that is not enough to entice you to...

Okay, so apparently this guy is a relative nobody with a couple wins on the Japanese tour and a low ranking coming outta Q-school. He's got his foot in the door during what's likely to be one of very few chances this season on the PGA. He's playing well, at -6 through 3 days of play, tied 16th or...

In one of the most entertaining final matches in U.S. Women's Amateur Championship history, Gabriela Ruffels birdied both the 17th and 18th hole (her 35th and 36th hole of the day) to defeat Albane Valenzuela by a single stroke. Here is the full recap: http://www.tonyslpgareport.com/

Although Michelle has been out almost the entire season with an injury (she is expected to be back healthy in 2020), she is still on e of the most followed players on the LPGA Tour. I have gone back and updated all her stats. For full profile: ...

Kinda dead in here lately so here goes. After watching the Ryder Cup, what are some people's thoughts? Ex. Curtis Strange's decision to back load the single matches, Sam Torrance's front load, Sergio's celebrations, the crowd behavior, the 10th hole, Zinger's bunker shot, etc. Talk about...

Tiger Woods will play in Friday morning's third four ball match with Steve Stricker against Ian Poulter and Ross Fisher at the Ryder Cup. More...

Did anyone really think this was going to fly? It sunk just like a golf ball!! http://www.golf.com/golf/tours_news/article/0,28136,1839072,00.html

After the Covid shortened 2020 LPGA season in which only 18 tournaments were played, the majority of those without fans, the LPGA came roaring back in 2021. Twenty-nine tournaments were played in all, including all five major championships. Fans were able to come back out and see their favorite...

This is the worst golf coverage of a major I have ever seen! They are focusing only on featured groups and the commentary is horrible. Am I missing something ?

With the LPGA taking the week of this week before resuming its schedule next week in Indianapolis, I thought it would be a good time to spotlight another LPGA rookie. The player I have chosen today is: Jennifer Kupcho For full profile:

So, after the first round, Tiger is first in driving distance (326 yards: compare to, for example, John Daly's 300 yards) and dead last in accruacy (1/14 fairways). Incidently, he is tied for 57th, and better improve today or he will be watching on the weekend. I know that you may have to...

http://blogs.golf.com/golfcom/2007/04/cbs_refuses_to_.html What do you guys think? I don't think the ad itself is too much, but I don't think Daly should have been doing it.
