  • With kids this good... How could you not?

    Of course it will be a while before this kid is on the pro tour; however. A much better swing than Tiger was at 4years old, and he is only 19 Months old. Amazing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=coHZUVBuxfI

  • Toddler Golf Pro... Next Tiger Woods??

    Woods has nothing on this kid! Comparatively better swing than Tiger at his age. Possibly the best form I've ever seen in a Child Golf Prodigy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=coHZUVBuxfI Simply amazing. Apparently there's some video out there of him winning a child 'driving' tournament. His putting ability is supposed to be just as good. ...

  • Hogan and Snead were real rivals

    Hogan and Snead were real rivals, with very different styles, and very different public personas. They were also the two best golfers of their time. They were much better rivals than Nicklaus and Palmer or Woods and Mickelson.

  • More Than Any Game, Golf Is A Metaphor For Life

    Golf is a frustrating game. It is hard. It can be unfair. It can be expensive. At the same time it is played in beautiful places, can bestow good fortune, and rewards perseverance, knowledge and skill. Just like life. In golf, you look at the ball, assess the situation, choose your strategy, choose the best tool, take aim and send the ball ...

  • Don't listen to her, Emily played really well

    I happened to be one of these giraffe-like colleagues, and Emily was actually a solid first-timer. Maybe she didn't make it to the hole in two, but she managed to hit the ball straight nearly every time. Next year we're determined to get her out on the course again, psychological damage be damned.
