“I want Tiger,” Rory Sabbatini said. “Everyone wants Tiger. I want him to pick it up this week and we’ll be there late Sunday. The funny thing is, after watching him play last Sunday, I think he’s more beatable than ever. I think there’s a few fortuitous occasions out there that really changed the round [...]

Did anyone catch the Byron Nelson Classic this past weekend? It was a touching finish with local boy (from Dallas) Scott Verplank catching Luke Donald and winning what Scott considers his “5th Major.” Verplank needed to sink a 1 and a half footer on 18 to seal the deal, and he was so nervous, he [...]

Butch Harmon may have the biggest ego of any swing coach. He’s spoken publicly for the first time about his new pupil Phil Mickelson. First, he’s made clear that Phil Mickelson is not his main horse, Adam Scott is. “I’m not Rick Smith. I’m not going to spend 24/7 time with Phil. When he needs [...]
