The golf world would like nothing better than a rivalry. Someone who will step up and challenge Tiger on a consistent basis. Palmer and Nicklaus almost had it but truth be told, as great as Arnold Palmer was, Jack Nicklaus, pretty much owned him. No; what we would really like is a 1980’s Laker/Celtic, knock-down, […]

Only icons can truly understand other icons. The pro-am pairing at the Wachovia last week that had Michael Jordan paired with Tiger Woods, was fascinating on many fronts. If there is anybody on the planet that understands what it would be like to be Tiger Woods, it is Jordan. Conversely, if anybody knows what it […]

Sometimes, the thought of paying for golf when you're not at the top of your game doesn't sit well. Glancing at a scorecard that reflects a score in the triple digits, while simultaneously combing the calendar for a free weekend in which to take a golf getaway, can seem contradictory.

A student of ours, who is the CEO of a very large company, actually uses the golf course; to interview potential executives. His rationale is that, by playing a round of golf with the candidate, […]
