It's no secret that I love Ballyneal. I love (and need) the wide, rolling fairways. I love the large, wild greens. I love the firm and fast fescue turf. I love (and need) the absence of a single hazard or out of bound stakes. I love walking up, down and around the dunes. I love everything about the place. Now picture a course with 25-yard wide, tree-lined fairways. Imagine overhanging trees guarding...

I was listening to ESPN Radio on my way back from the grocer today and caught a wee bit of Jason Sobel and his opinion on Lucas Glover. It seems that Glover had made a bit of a move (he is currently -2 for the day and tied for second place.) Sobel was of the opinion that the US Open win in June had suddenly placed Glover in an elite class. I agree, but not the one Sobel selected. Shaun Micheel, Paul...

Given his record in WGC events (15 from 28), Tiger Woods has an obvious chance of winning this event. His record at this course (Firestone) is 7 wins from 10 events. However, at a best priced 7/4, the bookies are only offering a fair price. He was a similar price last week against a much weaker field, and I am yet to be convinced he is back to his best form. With so much taken out of the book, it is...

Tom Watson's glorious run at the British Open may have ended with a disappointing second-place finish, but it was a victory for his apparel sponsor, Polo Ralph Lauren. The folks at Polo Golf have been dressing Watson, Davis Love III, Luke Donald and others for years. They came awfully close to getting a big win at Turnberry, with Watson leading for much of the tournament and Donald finishing tied for...

Being an avid golf fan, one of the greatest memories watching golf came at the 1999 U.S. Open when Payne Stewart outlasted Phil Mickelson in one of the greatest duels in golf history. Stewart nailed three clutch putts to end his round – a 20-foot-par on 16, a short birdie putt take the lead at 17 and a 15 footer to save par and the tournament on 18. The native of Springfield, Mo., would die...
