An Extraordinary Life
It is with a broken heart that I am writing to tell you that Carey Mumford passed away on Friday (October 18) night at his home in Crossville. The world has lost one of its most magnificent people. Jim Samsing and I were with him and Jan last week. Carey’s brilliant mind was still here […]
A Year Early
The PGA Tour began a new year, a year early. If that puzzles you, consider us befuddled also but it’s correct. The first event of the 2014 PGA Tour happened over the last four days at CordeValle in San Ramon, California. October 10-13 were the first dates for the 2014 schedule. The field resembled a […]
A Three-Peat Repeat
The Presidents Cup this past weekend at Muirfield Village Golf Club (aka Jack’s Place) in Ohio was another one-sided conquest for the American team. It was the eighth time in 10 events that the US has won. This version will probably be best remembered for the massive amounts of rain that almost washed away Muirfield. […]
All The Presidents Men
The biennial Presidents Cup is scheduled to begin this Thursday at Jack Nicklaus’s home at Muirfield Village GC in Ohio.

Eyes Wide Shut
Yesterday at the LPGA Lotte Championship at Ko Olina in Hawaii, Norway’s superstar, Suzann Pettersen, won her 11th LPGA Tour event. After building an early 3 shot lead, it became anything but an easy victory for the statuesque Norwegian. Pettersen began the day as the third round leader at 14-under par. Despite hitting her tee […]
The New #1
With her win at the LPGA Founders Cup yesterday in Phoenix, Stacy Lewis became the #1 ranked women’s golfer in the World. It has been the most remarkable of ascendancies. Lewis was diagnosed with scoliosis when she was 11 years old. As a teenager, she had to wear a back brace for 18 hours a […]
The 76th
The final winning margin of 2 shots did not really describe the dominance of Tiger Woods’ 76th career PGA Tour victory at Doral. It was his seventh victory at the WGC-Cadillac Championship and his fourth win at the event at Doral. Woods has now won an amazing 17 World Golf Championship events, of which there […]
75
It was as much as foregone conclusion as is possible in golf. Tiger Woods won his 75th PGA Tour event today at one of his favorite courses, Torrey Pines in San Diego. It was the eighth time Woods has won at Torrey Pines. He has now won the Farmers Insurance title a record seven times […]
The 74th
Tiger Woods’ 74th victory on the PGA Tour at Congressional Golf Club in Washington D.C. this week was his third win on the PGA Tour this year. For most players, that would add up to a career year. Woods, however, has set his own standards so high that even though this has been his best […]
#1
And you can be certain of one fact; that a new era has dawned in golf. Rory Mcllroy’s US Open performance became a virtuoso ascendance to the world’s greatest stage. It was not a victory because to be victorious you need opponents and for the last week; Rory has walked alone. You simply do not […]
