Nicklaus’ Legacy Helps Make Tiger What He Is

Saturday, April 5th, 2008

With so much talk about Tiger Woods – whether we love him or hate him, whether or not swearing on the fairways is okay because athletes in other sports do it, whether or not he will win the Grand Slam in 2008 – it’s good to sometimes sit back, collect our thoughts and consider why […]

Can Justin Rose Top Nick Faldo’s Major Record?

Friday, April 20th, 2007

For years, the golf world has been waiting for Justin Rose’s follow up to his thrilling debut at the 1998 British Open. The then 17 year old amateur made his splash with a solid 4th place finish - but more memorably, with a remarkable holed birdie pitch on the 72nd hole. “The shot” wasn’t enough […]

Masters Imitating U.S. Open?
