Well, the KLM Open is going on over in Europe. Some great players are competing there this week - Darren Clarke especially is doing well.

Apparently the morning matches were very long. It looked like most of them went the full...

The final major comes our way this week in the form of the PGA Championship .

There will be no Tiger Woods or Phil Mickelson because the tournament is going head-to-head against a World Golf Championships event, but it has Paul Azinger, Steve Elkington and Rich Beem in the field. Reno-Tahoe makes me miss having a pro tournament...

Tiger Woods shooting a 64 makes perfect sense. Even defending AT&T National champion Anthony Kim having enough gusto in his game to fire a course-record 62 on Thursday seemed feasible.
