PGA: Tiger takes FedEx Cup

Who else do you want on the inagural trophy?
Tiger easily took the Tour Championship with a record -23, 257 for the week.  Runners up Zach Johnson (aided by a third round 60) and Mark Calcavecchia tied for a very distant second.  With the victory on Sunday, Tiger also took home the first ever FedEx Cup [...]

The leaderboard is packed with stars at the Tour Championship.  We have Tiger on top, Woody Austin, Tim Clark, Mark Calcavecchia, Adam Scott, Padraig Harrington, Sergio Garcia, KJ Choi and Phil Mickelson all in striking distance…adding lesser known John Rollins, Stewart Cink and Hunter Mahan.  Unfortunately, it seems like Steve Stricker’s run for the cup [...]

PGA: Mickelson is out

Phil Mickelson held true to his threat to withdraw from this weeks BMW Championship, the third leg of the FedEx Cup.  Phil stated that he was upset with the commishioner but what Phil missed is that he is not Tiger and the tour will go on without him.  He also misses a great chance to [...]

PGA: Stricker Pulls Out a Thriller

Steve Stricker was down but not out.  KJ Choi cruised into the lead with two consecutive birdies - a 45-footer and a 50-footer - only to watch a great week end in disappointment.  Stricker answered Choi with birdies on four of the last five holes for the victory.  Can you say Tiger who?  A great start [...]

PGA: Tiger to Miss Start of FedEx Cup

The one problem with the PGA Tour is that the players control when and where they will play.  The FedEx Cup was supposed to show fans that there is interest in events outside of the four majors - especially after the PGA Championship.  They called it a “new era” in golf.  Well, Tiger is a [...]
