Clark Fumbles with 59

Tim Clark needed only one birdie over his final two holes to shoot 59. He finished with consecutive bogeys and had to settle for a one-shot lead Saturday in the Deutsche Bank Championship.
He still matched his career low with a 9-under 62 on soft and vulnerable TPC Boston, giving him a one-shot lead over Mike Weir of Canada at the halfway point of the PGA Tour's second playoff event.
On another day of lowing scoring, Clark was trying to get into contention when he shot to the top of the leaderboard by playing a six-hole stretch in 7 under, including two eagles. After a wedge to 3 feet on the par-5 seventh put the South African at 11 under for the round with two holes to play, it all fell apart.
Clark missed the green on the par-3 eighth and failed to convert an 8-foot par putt.
"That was the end of the dream," Clark said.
He missed the ninth fairway, watched his approach bound through the green and he missed his 10-foot par putt for a 62, putting him at 14-under 128.
Weir, who tied the course record Friday with a 61, took a while to warm up until he settled in for a 68.
Defending champion Phil Mickelson overcame a double bogey on the 16th hole with a 33 on the front nine to make the cut on the number, but two Ryder Cup hopefuls from Europe were not so fortunate. Ian Poulter and Paul Casey, both trying to impress captain Nick Faldo before he makes his two picks Saturday, missed the cut.
Poulter lashed out at the media, saying the distractions this week caused him to waste energy on the wrong things.
"It's a joke," Poulter said after a 74. "It's not the kind of buzz you want to play golf on, trust me. The kind of nonsense that's been in my head for a whole week is not the right kind of pressure.
It's nonsense," he said. "You've read it. You've wrote it. Some of you might be guilty or not, I don't know. But boy, what one hell of a week."

NORTON, Mass. -- Ian Poulter lashed out at the media Saturday after missing the cut in the Deutsche Bank Championship, claiming they created too large of a distraction about the Ryder Cup to allow him to concentrate on golf.
With his last chance to leave an impression on Nick Faldo before the European captain announces his two picks Sunday, Poulter shot a 74 to miss the cut by five shots at the TPC Boston.
Paul Casey, also hopeful of being a pick, took triple bogey on his 15th hole and likewise missed the cut. They are considered favorites to be picked, along with Darren Clarke, who is playing in Scotland this week.
Poulter said he was exhausted after his week, which only lasted two rounds, and he blamed the media on both sides of the Atlantic for making the week harder than it should have been.
"It's been a very long week, and I think a lot of misspent energy has been taken up by obvious press -- media, players, everybody. It's just so mentally draining to be in this position, to listen, to read, to hear all the B.S. this week. I'm spent. I'm exhausted. I didn't want to finish the last two tournaments like this."
Asked if he thought Faldo would pick him, Poulter glared at a reporter.
"Do you know tiger woods golf video? I'm sick and tired of all this nonsense," he said. "I'm absolutely spent. I can't waste any more energy on this. If I get the call, I'm ready to play. And trust me, I'll do my job."
Missing the cut also meant Poulter was done for the year on the PGA Tour, having no chance to move into the top 70 for the third round of the playoffs in St. Louis.
Casey, who shot 73 and missed the cut by two shots, still has an outside chance to go to St. Louis depending on tiger woods golf video others do over the final two rounds. As for his chance of being a Ryder Cup pick?
"I have no clue," Casey said. "I'd say right now, I'm annoyed at not figuring out this golf course very well."
Faldo likely will use one of his picks on Clarke, who has won twice in the last the last four month and would bring the experience of five Ryder Cups to a team that already will have four rookies.
Poulter brought more attention to himself this week by choosing to play outside Boston and boost his PGA Tour playoff chances instead of playing the Johnnie Walker Championship in Scotland, where a top five could have earned him a spot on the team.
Then came reports from Britain that Faldo already promised Poulter a spot on the team, which explained why he was in the United States. Poulter denied those reports, which led to an exchange of words with Colin Montgomerie.
Poulter said the entire week was one big distraction.
"It's a joke," Poulter said. "It's not the kind of buzz you want to play golf on, trust me. The kind of nonsense that's been in my head for a whole week is not the right kind of pressure.
"It's nonsense," he said. "You've read it. You've wrote it. Some of you might be guilty or not, I don't know. But boy, tiger woods golf video one hell of a week."
Poulter bristled when someone suggested that handling the pressure of trying to make the team might show whether someone can handle a week at the Ryder Cup. Poulter has played on only one team, in 2004 at Oakland Hills, where he played only two matches.
"How did I handle the Open?" he said, referring to his runner-up finish at Royal Birkdale. "That's pressure. That's tiger woods golf video you thrive on. To have to read all that nonsense, listen to all that, it's totally different pressure. I've performed in the big tournaments. We've all seen tiger woods golf video happens when you get batted for a week. It happened earlier on in the year. I'm tired of it."
Poulter was quoted in a British magazine earlier this year as saying that when he reaches his full potential, it will be just him and Tiger Woods. He became the butt of such jokes that even Woods said to him when they passed each other in the locker room, "How are you doing No. 2?"
Poulter was asked if he could learn anything from this week should he find himself in the same position two years from now. But he didn't allow the reporter to finish the question.
"I won't be," he said. "There is no way I will be. Truly. I'll be on the side by then."

Golf Videos

PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. -- Hale Irwin shot a 6-under 66 at Del Monte on Friday for a share of golf videos lead in golf videos suspended first round of golf videos Wal-Mart First Tee Open.
Fuzzy Zoeller, Loren Roberts and Chip Beck also opened with 66s at Del Monte, and Andy Bean had a 66 at Pebble Beach. After three fog delays at Pebble Beach, tournament officials stopped golf videos first round with 19 players still on golf videos course.
golf videos 63-year-old Irwin, golf videos Champion Tour's career leader with 45 victories, had a bogey-free round in sunny conditions at Del Monte.
"It wasn't golf videos kind of ball-striking I would have liked to have had," said Irwin, golf videos 2005 winner. "golf videosre were a few fakeouts, but it's good not to get too exasperated. It's a relatively short course with a few silly shots."
golf videos fifth-year event, which pairs each pro with a junior golfer in a simultaneously held team competition, is golf videos only Champions Tour event played on multiple courses.
"Any time you shoot 66 at Pebble Beach you should be satisfied," said Bean, who birdied three of golf videos final four holes. "golf videosre are a lot of guys out golf videosre who'd like to shoot 66."
golf videos first round was delayed 20 minutes at Del Monte and 30 minutes at Pebble Beach. Morning rounds also were delayed an additional 56 minutes at Pebble Beach.
"It started out like it was going to be an uneventful round," said Bean, who eagled No. 2, his 11th hole of golf videos day. "I missed a few early putts, but I played a very solid round. In 32 years of playing here, it was one of golf videos better rounds I've played."
Zoeller, winless since 2004, had seven birdies and a bogey.
"I've been playing very, very well for golf videos last month and a half," Zoeller said. "It's kind of exciting again. I'm doing everything right, right now. I'm driving golf videos ball well and I'm hitting some pretty good irons and giving myself opportunities."
Fred Funk, Phil Blackmar and open qualifier Steve Thomas shot 67s at Del Monte. Joey Sindelar, Jay Haas and Tom Kite shot 68s at Del Monte and were joined by Mark McNulty, who shot a 68 at Pebble Beach. Bean and McNulty were golf videos only players among golf videos top 12 finishers at Pebble Beach.

Golf Babes

golf babes rising Colombian star won a chipoff Tuesday against Vijay Singh, Mike Weir, Stewart Cink, and Notah Begay III to walk away with top money at golf babes inaugural Notah Begay III Foundation Challenge at Turning Stone Resort's Atunyote Golf Club.
Villegas' winning pitch on golf babes extra hole of golf babes skins game competition boosted his earnings for golf babes day to $220,000. Singh won two holes to finish with $180,000, and Cink finished with one skin worth $100,000 from golf babes total purse of $500,000.
golf babes event, a collaboration between golf babes Oneida Indian Nation of New York and San Manuel Band of Serrano Mission Indians of California, is an effort to aide Native American youth and golf babesir communities.
"We're lucky to do what we do," said Villegas, who won more than $200,000 at golf babes two-day World Skins Game in June in Canada. "If we get a chance to help make an impact on a kid's life, that's why we're here."
golf babes first six holes were worth $10,000 apiece, golf babes second six $20,000, holes 13 through 17 were worth $50,000 each, and No. 18 was worth $70,000.
It was tough to score a skin despite picture-perfect weagolf babesr with temperatures in golf babes mid-70s. When Villegas hit a 250-yard fairway shot to within a foot of golf babes pin at golf babes par-5 fifth hole to set up an easy eagle, Weir nullified it with an 18-foot eagle putt.
"I felt like I played pretty good," Weir said. "But that's skins. You've got to time it right."
Singh, fresh from his win Sunday at golf babes Barclays, golf babes Fedex Cup playoff opener, scored golf babes lone skin on golf babes front nine, making birdie at golf babes 414-yard par-4 fourth hole. After Begay's birdie putt lipped out and Villegas' short downhill birdie try stopped 2 inches short of golf babes hole, Singh stepped up and calmly drained a 6-foot putt worth $40,000.
Weir nearly aced golf babes 185-yard, par-3 sixth hole, and when Singh matched his birdie Weir muttered, "Make enough money last week?"
All five had a chance at $80,000 on No. 9 and all five missed makeable putts. golf babes pot rose to $140,000 at golf babes par-5 12th hole, a slight dogleg right with a massive, 13-acre water hazard lining golf babes right side of golf babes fairway. Singh was golf babes only player to reach golf babes green in two shots, and when his second shot landed within 4 feet of golf babes pin, he easily scored his second skin despite missing golf babes eagle putt.
Three holes later, Villegas finally broke through, draining a pretty 15-foot pitch-and-run from golf babes back fringe at No. 15 for $150,000 as golf babes gallery of about 2,000 cheered.
"It wasn't pretty with golf babes putter," Villegas said. "I kept hitting good shots, and golf babesn I chipped one in. That's golf babes way golf goes. I kept telling my caddie, 'Man, we've played pretty good today. We've been pretty much in every hole with a chance to do something special.' And somebody tops me. I top somebody. golf babesn, coming down golf babes stretch I hit some good shots and got a couple of good breaks."
Cink, erratic all day, captured his lone skin at golf babes par-4 17th hole, sinking a downhill putt from 16 feet for birdie.
When nobody won at 17 or 18, all five had one pitch downhill at No. 18 for golf babes final prize, and Villegas' shot stopped closest to golf babes pin -- 58 inches -- for $70,000.
golf babes Notah Begay III Foundation was established in 2005 to create sustainable programs that are designed by Native Americans for Native American youth. golf babes NB3 Challenge was golf babes foundation's first national event.
At golf babes award ceremony afterward, Singh thanked Begay for organizing golf babes competition and announced he would donate $80,000 of his earnings to golf babes foundation, which also received a $100,000 contribution from golf babes day's festivities.
Begay, golf babes only Native American player on golf babes PGA Tour, was clearly touched.
"It brought me to tears," Begay said. "I had to compose myself. Guys don't have to do that. It's just a reflection on who he [Singh] is as a person. He understands and respects what we're trying to get done."
About golf babes only thing missing was Tiger Woods, Begay's college roommate at Stanford. Woods had committed to playing before he was sidelined for golf babes season with a knee injury.
"He's never played a fundraising event. This was going to be his first one ever," Begay said. "I think that speaks to golf babes amount of respect he has for our friendship. We've been togegolf babesr now for over 20 years.
"I suspect golf babesre's a tremendous chance he'll be on golf babes property next year, but golf babes most important thing is that he gets his knee back where he wants to."

Kite Wins Boeing

SNOQUALMIE, Wash. -- Tom Kite surged past Scott Simpson with three birdies in four holes on the back nine and finished at 14-under to win his second Boeing Classic title on Sunday afternoon.
It's the first victory for Kite since winning the 2006 Boeing Classic in a playoff over Keith Fergus, and the 10th Champions Tour title in his career. Kite was able to avoid a playoff this time by sinking three birdies inside 10 feet on the backside, then capped his 6-under round of 66 with a birdie on the 18th, finishing two shots ahead of playing partner Simpson.
Kite found himself two shots behind after bogeying the par-4 11th hole, then started his decisive string of birdies. It started on the 12th when Kite's second shot from 133 yards landed within 8-feet. He avoided temptation to go for the green on the canyon-crossing 14th, instead playing about 50 yards short of the green, then making a 9-footer to draw even with Simpson.
Kite took the lead on the 15th, playing the long par-5 perfectly and dropping a 7-foot putt to reach 13-under, then made pars on his final three holes to cinch the victory.
Kite lost in a playoff earlier this season at The ACE Group Classic in Florida and was in the final group on Sunday at the Bank of America Championship in June, but couldn't pull out a victory in either situation.
Meanwhile, Simpson was struggling to make pars on the back nine and let a two-shot lead to start the day vanish. He finished with a 1-under 71. Simpson birdied Nos. 1 and 7, then bogeyed the 8th, his first bogey since the final round of the JELD-WEN Tradition last week, a span of 44 holes. Simpson was then stuck at 12-under, failing to give himself any reasonable birdie chances on the back nine.
Simpson's hopes ended when he missed a 2-foot par putt on the 16th, falling two back of Kite with two holes to play.
John Cook was tied for second when he made the turn at 10-under, but his irons started to fail him on the back nine. He saved par after poor approaches on Nos. 10 and 11, but was in the bunker on 12 and could not save his par, falling back to 9-under.
Cook made a birdie on the 16th, and added another when he placed his tee shot within 5 feet on the 185-yard par-3. By then, Kite had birdied the 15th and Cook finished two shots back.
The only player to make a charge from the back of the field was defending champion Denis Watson, who started the day at 3-under, then eagled the par-5 first when he holed out from about 65 yards. He added birdies at Nos. 4, 5, 6 and his birdie on the long par-4 11th got him to 9-under.
Then Watson started missing chances. He saw a 13-footer slide past on No. 14, then left a 10-footer on the lip at No. 15. Watson added one more birdie coming in, but his chances ended with a bogey on the par-5 18th. He finished at 9-under and tied for fifth, his best finish since tying for fifth at the Regions Charity Classic in late May.
"I was feeling like if I shot 10-under today, I could win the golf tournament," Watson said. "If I get to 13 [under], that is tough at the end of the day."

PORTLgolf videos, Ore. -- All Cristie Kerr wanted was a chance to win the Safeway Classic with her putter.
When she got that shot, she nailed it.
Kerr rolled in a downhill 20-foot birdie on the first playoff hole Sunday to beat Helen Alfredsson golf videos Sophie Gustafson at Columbia Edgewater Country Club.
Kerr, who shot a final round 7-under par 65, Alfredsson golf videos Gustafson finished 54 regulation holes at 13-under 203.
The three played 18 again golf videos Alfredsson (69) golf videos Gustafson (68) missed birdie putts, opening the opportunity for Kerr.
"I said to myself, 'Get in the fairway, get on the green golf videos give yourself a chance, because putting is what I do best,' " Kerr said.
It was Kerr's 11th career win on the LPGA Tour. Her last victory was the 2007 U.S. Women's Open. She collected a first prize of $255,000 from the tournament's $1.7 million purse. Kerr trailed Alfredsson, the second-round leader, by four strokes heading into the final round.
After making pars on her first four holes, Kerr took off, going 8-under on her final 15 holes, including the playoff.
"I knew if I hit it good enough with the way I putt, I knew I'd have a chance," Kerr said.
That chance came as Kerr stood on the 18th green. Alfredsson golf videos Gustafson, tied for the lead golf videos one stroke ahead of Kerr, bogeyed 17 as Kerr looked over an uphill 15-foot birdie putt.
Kerr made it, briefly giving her a one-stroke lead. Alfredsson golf videos Gustafson quickly responded by dropping birdie putts at 18 to set up a sudden-death playoff, also played on the 383-yard, par-4 18th.
Kerr hit the fairway, then lofted an 8-iron to within 20 feet. Alfredsson golf videos Gustafson also hit the green, leaving slightly longer putting attempts.
"That putt was a lot more difficult than the one I had in regulation," Kerr said. "It broke a couple feet. It's a pretty amazing putt to make in a playoff."
It was Kerr's second career playoff win, though this was much easier than her first. In 2004, Kerr needed seven holes to beat Seo-Yeon Jeon in the Takefuji Classic.
Neither playoff loser showed disappointment. For Gustafson, it was the second consecutive year she finished in a tie for second at Portlgolf videos. But this year was nothing like 2007, when Gustafson fell apart golf videos went 4 over on the final five holes.
On Sunday, Gustafson made five birdies on the back nine.
"I am happy. I played well," Gustafson said.
Alfredsson, who won in July at the Evian Masters for the first time since 2003, retained at least a share of the lead throughout the final round until the playoffs conclusion.
"It's fun to show I can play, that I can still make putts under pressure," said the 43-year-old Alfredsson.
Katherine Hull (67) finished fourth at 205, two strokes out of the playoff. Hull won the CN Canadian Women's Open last week.
Hee-Won Han (66) placed fifth at 206. Annika Sorenstam (69) golf videos defending Safeway Classic champion Lorena Ochoa (70) were among five players to finish in a tie for sixth at 209.
Sorenstam got to within two shots of the lead on the back nine, but quickly faded golf videos eventually finished with a double bogey at 18.
Ochoa also briefly flirted with contention after making three consecutive birdies early on the back nine.
Joining Sorenstam golf videos Ochoa at 209 were first-round leader Angela Park (70), Catriona Matthew (70) golf videos Paula Creamer (72).
Karrie Webb (71), Allison Fouch (68), Eunjung Yi (68), Laura Diaz (68), Jee Young Lee (72) golf videos Hee Young Park (71) finished at 210.

Swede Peter Hanson led from start to finish to win golf videos Scandinavian Masters on Sunday and secure his second European Tour title. Hanson prevailed despite a faltering finish in bad weagolf videosr outside Stockholm, closing with a one-over 71 for a nine-under 271 to win by a stroke from compatriot Pelle Edberg and Britain's Nick Dougherty.
His victory, worth 266,660 points after a three-year wait since he won golf videos Spanish Open, rekindled golf videos Swede's Ryder Cup hopes. golf videos 30-year-old from Trelleborg has sought and gained an invitation to next week's Dutch Open to try to keep his Ryder Cup dream alive over golf videos next two weeks before Europe's team is decided.
"I'd thought my chance was gone but you never know in golf what can happen," a jubilant Hanson told Reuters.
"I'm now going to play next week. It's a long chance and I'll really need anogolf videosr good week, in fact I'll probably need to win again but at least I've given myself a chance now." Hanson established a four-stroke lead by golf videos 10th but a double-bogey on golf videos 11th and a charge by his playing partner Edberg (70) put golf videos pressure on.
However, he always had a stroke in hand and even two bogeys in golf videos last three holes could not prevent his first victory on home soil. "I used to imagine having a putt to win in Sweden when I was a kid and it happened today," he said.
Edberg's ball flew into golf videos lake on golf videos 17th but he still scrambled to eight feet to try to save par. When he missed golf videos putt his chance was over. Dougherty (70) needed pain killers on golf videos ninth tee after his back stiffened overnight. golf videos Englishman had almost played himself out of contention by finding water to double-bogey on golf videos second hole but fought back over golf videos back nine to run Hanson close.
His 138,965 points for a share of second place did not move him up from his 14th spot on golf videos Ryder Cup table but Dougherty believes he can still make golf videos team. I've found my game again and this has moved me closer," Dougherty said. "It's going to be all to play for over golf videos next two weeks and I'd almost given up hope of that."
Dane Soren Kjeldsen shared golf videos lead early on but faded to finish three strokes behind Hanson and also failed to move up golf videos Cup table from his 15th position. golf videos most significant move came from Martin Kaymer who is now only 272 points behind 10th and final automatic place, held by Denmark's Soren Hansen after golf videos German finished in 14th place in Sweden, five adrift of Hanson.

Curtis Captures Spot on Ryder Cup team

BLOOMFIELD TOWNSHIP, Mich. -- Ben Curtis will have to ditch the NFL apparel next month for the Stars & Stripes. A runner-up finish in the PGA Championship on Sunday earned him his first trip to the Ryder Cup.
"I love Ben Curtis a lot, and I love the fact he's made the team," U.S. captain Paul Azinger said.
Curtis lost out on a chance to win another major when he bogeyed two of the last four holes at Oakland Hills, but only later did he realize the consolation prize. His tie for second moved him from No. 20 to No. 7 in the standings, earning him one of the eight automatic spots in the qualifying that ended with the PGA Championship.
"It's almost a victory in itself," said Curtis, who wears apparel of NFL teams when he plays on the PGA Tour.
Three of the eight Americans who qualified will be Ryder Cup rookies -- Anthony Kim (No. 5), Curtis and Boo Weekley, who closed with a 66 to finish tied for 20th to secure the final spot.
Justin Leonard finished sixth and will play in the Ryder Cup for the first time since he holed that 45-foot birdie putt on the 17th hole at Brookline to cap off the largest rally in history in 1999. That also was the last time the Americans won.
Phil Mickelson tied for seventh and was atop the points list -- Tiger Woods clinched the No. 1 spot in June after winning the U.S. Open, but is out the rest of the year after reconstructive surgery on his left knee.
The rest of the U.S. qualifiers were Stewart Cink, Kenny Perry and Jim Furyk.
Azinger will announce his four captain's picks on Sept. 2. Europe still has three tournaments left before 10 players qualify, and captain Nick Faldo will have two picks after that.
The Ryder Cup will be played Sept. 19-21 at Valhalla Golf Club in Kentucky.
Steve Stricker was at No. 8 in the standings going into the week, but he was hurt by a 77 in the third round. Stricker closed with a 69, but any chance of overtaking Weekley unfolded before his eyes.
"I just wanted to shoot something good and see what happened," Stricker said. "I thought maybe I could catch Boo, but he was playing right in front of me, so I knew by the last few holes that wasn't going to happen."
Curtis won the British Open in 2003 -- his first major -- but did not make the Presidents Cup team. He didn't figure to be on this Ryder Cup team until he was runner-up at the Wachovia Championship in early May, then tied for seventh in the British Open.
And then came his week at Oakland Hills, where he took the 54-hole lead by one shot and was still tied for the lead with four holes to play until a bogey from the rough on the 15th.
"He deserves to be on the team, doesn't he?" Stricker said. "He's stood up to the challenge all week."
Weekley matched Harrington for the best score of the final round and will bring his homespun speech to the U.S. team room. He did not stop for questions after his round so he could get to the airport.
"Got to run," he said.
Brandt Snedeker, who was in 15th place, needed to finish at least seventh to have a chance. He was at 4 over for the tournament through six holes, but a double bogey on No. 7 sent him to a 73.
"It's going to come down to how I play the next three events," said Snedeker, who defends his title next week in Greensboro. "Hopefully, I can play well and get on his radar. I'm disappointed, because I had a chance to take care of my own business this week, and now it is out of my control. I've got to play well."
Sergio Garcia secured his spot on his fifth straight team for Europe with a runner-up finish, while Justin Rose stayed in the mix with a 71 in the final round to tie for ninth.

Harrington's collection of major hardware growing by leaps and bounds

From ESPN.com

BLOOMFIELD TOWNSHIP, Mich. -- Truth be told, they were looking forward to a holiday this week, a visit to a new home they are building in North Carolina that will be their American base, a place where they could truly decompress and celebrate the Open Championship victory from a few weeks ago.
Now they have another trophy to haul around, and Caroline Harrington didn't quite know what to make of it all in the early evening chill at Oakland Hills Country Club.
"It's getting ridiculous," she said laughing, trying to keep track of children Paddy, 4, and Ciaran, 1, accepting unexpected congratulations all while the magnitude of husband Padraig's victory at the PGA Championship was still sinking in. "I'm just in shock. This is unbelievable."
Yes it is.
And no it's not.
Three weeks after playing what many believed to be the back nine of his life to win at Royal Birkdale, an exhausted Padraig Harrington was hoisting the Wanamaker Trophy and becoming the first European-born golfer since 1930 to win the PGA Championship.
That the Irishman did so while basically on fumes is the amazing thing.
Harrington was despondent on Friday after shooting 74, saying, "I'd just run out of steam. I did my best to be ready for the week, but clearly I'm not." On Sunday, he recalled, "I just couldn't get off the golf course fast enough. I was probably the only guy who finished bogey-bogey and thought he was doing pretty well.
"I was probably thinking of putting my clubs away for a week, which is something I almost never do."

Padraig Harrington shot a pair of 66s over the weekend to clinch his third major championship victory.
And yet if we have learned anything about Harrington, 36, it is that he is one of the most resilient players in the game today. He is not as gifted, nor does he possess the same skills as a Tiger Woods or a Phil Mickelson or even a Sergio Garcia, who was the tough-luck loser again on Sunday.
But the man has moxie. And that is why his victory comes as no surprise at all. The man loves it when his back his up against the wall. He shot a 4-under-par 66 to rally from three strokes back with nine holes to play, shooting another 32 on the back nine -- just like at Royal Birkdale -- to win by two strokes over Garcia and Ben Curtis.
"I just finished doing cartwheels," said Harrington's longtime coach, Bob Torrance, 76, when reached after midnight at his Scotland home. "The back nine was unbelievable. He holed some fantastic putts. And you have to do those things to win majors. He has gone well beyond and he is one of the top players in the world. He's just a great, unbelievable pressure player. Under the crush, he is just extremely good."
And that is exactly what Harrington relishes. He has now won three of the last six major championships -- not even Woods can say that, although he's missed the last two due to injury. Harrington undoubtedly took much from his Open victory last year in a playoff over Garcia at Carnoustie, and last month's four-shot win over Ian Poulter at Royal Birkdale.
There was some eeriness in the similarities between Harrington's win at Oakland Hills this week and his triumph in 2007 at Carnoustie.
On both occasions, he came from well back of Garcia and witnessed the Spaniard hit a shot that nearly went into the hole then caromed away after ricocheting off the flagstick.
Harrington also did his best impression of his final round at the seaside links where he made a mess of the 72nd hole. In both situations, despite the missteps, the Irishman ended the day raising a trophy.
"I felt an edge in terms of my experience," Harrington said. "I felt an edge in terms of my ability to take an opportunity when it comes around."
Harrington woke at 4:30 a.m. Sunday morning in order to complete the rain-delayed third round and managed a 4-under-par 66 that included four straight birdies on the back nine. Caroline and the kids didn't bother to show up for the conclusion, knowing how burned out hubby was, figuring it was best to get ready for their vacation.
Even Padraig wasn't in the best of spirits after that 66, having just bogeyed the 18th hole to drop a shot he felt was crucial. He was looking forward to a nap before having to go at the monster that is Oakland Hills again.
"I'm not anywhere where I could be [mentally]," he said. "But who knows? Last round of a major, you don't know, I keep approaching every shot hopeful it will click into place."
It clicked into place several times Sunday, especially on the par-5 12th, where Harrington used the same 5-wood to hit a second shot toward the green that he used in clinching the victory on Royal Birkdale's 17th hole and made an eagle. This time it set up a birdie and the game was on over the last six holes.
Harrington birdied the 13th with a 15-foot putt, but bogeyed the 14th to fall a shot behind Garcia. They both parred No. 15, but when Garcia hit his approach in the water at the 16th, Harrington needed to get up and down from a bunker -- he holed a 20-foot par putt -- to remain tied for the lead.
Perhaps the putt of the tournament came at the par-3 17th, where Garcia had stuffed his approach shot inside of Harrington's shot that he believed was good enough to win him the tournament. Garcia was only 4 feet from the hole, while Harrington was 10 feet away.
"I knew I had the opportunity to get the putt in first," he said. "And that was important. I knew if I holed this, I probably would win the PGA."
He did hole it -- and Garcia missed. And when Harrington was able to coax in a 15-foot for par on the 18th green, it rendered Garcia's par putt meaningless. Unbeknownst to the Harringtons, who nervously sat behind the 18th green, Ben Curtis had bogeyed the 17th hole.
Harrington had won the PGA, becoming the first Irishman to accomplish the feat. He also became only the fourth European to win the title and one of just four players -- Walter Hagen (1924), Nick Price (1994) and Tiger Woods (2000, 2006) -- to win the Open Championship and the PGA Championship in the same year.
Now Harrington finds himself in some rare air. Ranked third in the world behind Woods and Mickelson, he joins only Lefty, Ernie Els and Vijay Singh as active players other than Woods (who has 14) with three major championships.
"I know I love the idea of the back nine of a major on Sunday," Harrington said. "I love it so much that I'm actually disappointed I'm seven months away from the next major. And I don't know what I'm going to do."
Well, Harrington will start by enjoying that long-planned family vacation in North Carolina, where he will look at plans for the new house, play with the kids, start thinking about the FedEx Cup playoffs and the Ryder Cup. Maybe he'll dream about next year's Masters.
And, if so moved, he can celebrate by sipping his favorite beverage out of two trophies rather than one.

Tiger Woods Golf Videos

Golf Swing Videos

Since there is no time restriction either from the gofl swing videos course management side (because they charge according to the playtime) or from the individual side who can play for as much time as he wishes to.

These resorts are becoming popular mainly for these two reasons. Once a person goes to a resort for vacation, he needs to spend some quality time on activities, which is of his interest. gofl swing videos comes as a natural interesting activity.

gofl swing videos Schools

People who know gofl swing videos would like to play gofl swing videos for as much time as they could and those who do not know would like to learn it so that they can join some gofl swing videos club in their city after their return and boast that they know and can play gofl swing videos.

Therefore, gofl swing videos schools in resorts would be an ideal sport for those who want to learn it. Some of the prominent gofl swing videos schools in resorts are Pebble Beach, Sea Island, Kiawah Island, Whistling Straits, and Augusta National in United States America.

Golf Videos on Squidoo

In my last article, I gave an overview of how you can put togetiger woods golf videosr a terrific group golf videos vacation. In golf babes article, I will go into much more detail concerning tiger woods golf videos organization and preparation. I have been setting up tiger woods golf videos ideal gatiger woods golf videosring for our group for 18 years. tiger woods golf videosre are refinements every year and we think we have arrived at tiger woods golf videos optimum outing.

You will be driving golf babes bus, so get tiger woods golf videos ball rolling. Do a little research and pick a location. golf babes location should have plenty of vacation rental homes and a good selection of golf videos courses. You do not want to play tiger woods golf videos same course every day. You should be able to do most or all of your research online to find out about rental house and golf videos course specifics, including costs.

Get tiger woods golf videos word out to tiger woods golf videos troops. I like to send out a humorous email to introduce tiger woods golf videos event and tiger woods golf videosn follow up with more emails and phone calls. I recommend you send out an email to everyone you think might be remotely interested about five months in advance. Some will not be able to make it due to family, work, interest, etc. You should hope to wind up with a group size around eight. Anywhere from six to twelve is great. Five people is tiger woods golf videos worst group size due to tee times. More than twelve is too hard to organize or find lodging in tiger woods golf videos same house.

Pick out a window of time. We usually grab tiger woods golf videos last week in February to get tiger woods golf videos nortiger woods golf videosrn gents out of tiger woods golf videos snow and still stay in tiger woods golf videos low rate season for tiger woods golf videos soutiger woods golf videosrn golf videos courses. As an example of an introductory email, you could send something like golf babes:

"It has come to my attention via tiger woods golf videos minions who surround me and perform my every whim that tiger woods golf videosre may be those among you desiring driving sleet, incomprehensible wind chill, unplayable lies, unreachable par 3's, impossible odds, foot-wedging opponents, gross bending of tiger woods golf videos USGA rules, hairy greens, thick frost, lightening fast down-hillers, moguls, knee deep rough, more sand and water than water front property, Velcro removal during back swings, exploding coughs during precision chips, un-winnable stroke spreads complete with unyielding stroke givers and takers, 179-degree dog legs, and brutal rangers in leatiger woods golf videosr and chains.

If golf babes is tiger woods golf videos type of outing you've been dreaming about, keep dreaming. I can't make it happen. But picture golf babes:

-A luxurious house with a separate bed for everyone.
-18 to 36 holes of golf videos per day on pristine courses.
-A gourmet meal every night.
-All tiger woods golf videos comforts, food and drink of home.
-Evening entertainment.
-Sensational camaraderie.

I am looking at an arrival date of (date) and departure date of (date). We will be gatiger woods golf videosring in (city, state). For a group of eight of us, and assuming we average 27 holes per day, your cost should be around $XXX for tiger woods golf videos housing, food, drink, golf videos and rental cars. (Note: Our cost per man for food and drink for seven days was $160 in 2005.) Please reply before (date) by answering:

What is tiger woods golf videos percentage chance you can come for tiger woods golf videosse dates?
What is tiger woods golf videos percentage chance you could make otiger woods golf videosr dates?
What dates would you prefer?
Otiger woods golf videosr recommendations:"

You have now set tiger woods golf videos stage. For those you don't hear back from, get on tiger woods golf videos phone and hash it out. Through all of your responses, you will come up with tiger woods golf videos consensus of length of vacation and dates through give and take.

Over tiger woods golf videos next four months you will be:
-Getting firm commitments from your group members
-Arriving at a firmer consensus on golf videos venue
-Receiving food and drink orders to allow you to make tiger woods golf videos shopping list
-Reserving tiger woods golf videos vacation house and rental cars
-Getting tee times

I like to periodically whet everyone's appetite and keep tiger woods golf videos excitement level up. Setting up a website especially for your group is a great way to do golf babes. I stripped down tiger woods golf videos one I use and put an example up at http://www.eye-mind-tricks.com/golf videos for your review. It is just a little thing I whipped up using MS Publisher. An easier way for you to do golf babes would be to get a free Blog set up for golf babes purpose. I recommend blogger dot com.

Over tiger woods golf videos years, we have realized two key things about lodging. tiger woods golf videos first is that it makes a huge difference in camaraderie when tiger woods golf videos whole group stays under tiger woods golf videos same roof. tiger woods golf videos second is tiger woods golf videos value in everyone having a separate bed (you know how guys are). tiger woods golf videos only way to achieve golf babes is to pick a location where tiger woods golf videosre are a bunch of rental homes in order for you to pick one that allows golf babes. (Plug for Isle of Palms, SC: you can find what you need tiger woods golf videosre.)

It may not seem to you like time is of tiger woods golf videos essence, but work schedules, vacation allotments, spousal plans, ticket costs, and your preparation needs demand that you DO get golf babes ball rolling. Once you have sent your introductory email and done your phone calling, several of your planned guests will have trouble pulling tiger woods golf videos trigger. Work with tiger woods golf videosm as you can, but I have found that you will need your firm group established two months ahead of time (give or take one guy or so.) A fine point for you: Ask for a nominal deposit from each of tiger woods golf videos troops. Over time, I know that tiger woods golf videos cost of our vacation, outside of airfare, will be around $900. In one of my follow up emails, I simply ask tiger woods golf videos players to send around half of that to me. It emphasizes commitment.

In selecting tiger woods golf videos location of your rental home, consider tiger woods golf videos driving time to tiger woods golf videos golf videos courses you will be playing. We have found that twenty minutes travel time is great, thirty minutes is OK, but forty minutes is too long. tiger woods golf videos longer drives are certainly bearable, but if you are planning a winter vacation, you will have to have a fairly early tee time in tiger woods golf videos morning to allow lunch and anotiger woods golf videosr 18 in tiger woods golf videos afternoon. After telling tales late into tiger woods golf videos evening, beating tiger woods golf videos sun to tiger woods golf videos course, heading home and preparing tiger woods golf videos feast, it gets to be a long day.

golf babes takes us to tiger woods golf videos minus-two-months time frame.

In Part Three of golf babes series, we will get into getting great golf videos rates, shopping lists, and easy administration.

Arnies Rules

From Golfdigest.com

By Arnold Palmer
With Guy Yocom



I. Don't be the slowest player

In my casual games at Bay Hill, we get around in under four hours -- and that's in fivesomes. Evaluate your pace of play honestly and often, and if you're consistently the slowest one in your group, you're a slow player, period. Encourage everyone to move quickly enough so you find yourself right behind the group in front several times, both early and late in the round.

Remember the old staples of getting around in good time: Play "ready golf" (hit when ready, even if you aren't away) until you reach the green, be prepared to play when it's your turn on the tee and green, and never search for a lost ball for more than five minutes.

II. Keep your temper under control

In the final of the Western Pennsylvania Junior when I was 17, I let my putter fly over the gallery after missing a short putt. I won the match, but when I got in the car with my parents for the ride home, there were no congratulations, just dead silence. Eventually my father said, "If I ever see you throw a club again, you will never play in another golf tournament." That wake-up call stayed with me. I haven't thrown a club since.

Throwing clubs, sulking and barking profanity make everyone uneasy. We all have our moments of frustration, but the trick is to vent in an inoffensive way. For example, I often follow a bad hole by hitting the next tee shot a little harder -- for better or worse.

III. Respect other people's time

Because time is our most valuable commodity, there are few good reasons for breaking a golf date. Deciding last-minute to clean the garage on Saturday, or getting a call that the auto-repair shop can move up your appointment by a day, just doesn't cut it.

Always make your tee times, and show up for your lesson with the pro a little early. Social functions are no exception.



IV. Repair the ground you play on

I have a penknife that's my pet tool for fixing ball marks, but a tee or one of those two-pronged devices is fine. As for divots, replace them or use the seed mix packed on the side of your cart.

Rake bunkers like you mean it. Ever notice that the worse the bunker shot, the poorer the job a guy does raking the sand? Make the area nice and smooth -- don't leave deep furrows from the rake. Before you exit the bunker, ask yourself, Would I be upset if I had to play from that spot?

V. Be a silent partner

During one of my last tour events as a player, I noticed another pro making practice swings in my field of vision as I was getting ready to hit a shot. I stopped, walked over and reminded him (maybe too sternly) that it was my turn to play. The point is, stand still from the time a player sets himself until the ball has left the club.

Even with the advent of spikeless shoes, the etiquette rule of never walking in someone's line of play on the putting green is an absolute. The area around the hole in particular is sacred ground. The first thing to note when you walk onto a green is the location of every ball in your group, then steer clear of their lines to the hole.

Know where to stand and when to keep quiet. Position yourself directly across or at a diagonal from a player setting up. Never stand on the line of play, either beyond the hole or directly behind the ball. When a player is about to hit a shot, think of the fairway as a cathedral, the green a library.

VI. Make your golf cart 'invisible'

Carts are very much a part of the modern game. Think about it: They're mentioned on the backs of scorecards, discussed in the Decisions on the Rules of Golf, bags and other items are designed specifically for them, and they're used at most courses. The sheer pervasiveness of them makes cart etiquette vitally important.

Your goal when driving a cart should be to leave no trace you were there. Because we tend to look where we're going and not where we've been, it's easy to damage the turf and not realize it. Avoid wet areas and spots that are getting beaten up from traffic. Golfers tend to play "follow the leader" and drive in single file out to the fairway before branching off. It's usually better to "scatter" -- everyone take a different route -- so cart traffic is spread out.

VII. Always look your best

From Bobby Jones and Walter Hagen to Ben Hogan and Sam Snead to Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson, the best players have been meticulous about their appearance. Their clothing has been sharp, and not one of them has shown up on the first tee with his cap backward, mud caked on his shoes, or his shirttail hanging out. (My shirt often came untucked, but it was my swing that did it. I started with it tucked in!)

Your appearance speaks volumes about you as a person, and the neatly appointed golfer, like a businessman or someone headed to church, gives the impression he thinks the golf course and the people there are special.

VIII. Turn off the cell phone

Nobody knows less about technology than I do. But I know enough to recognize a cell phone when it rings in my backswing. If I had my way, cell phones would be turned off at all times on the course, but most clubs have given in to the fact that people are going to use them. I don't know all the gadgets and settings on those phones, but do whatever you have to do to keep it quiet. And if you absolutely have to make a call, move away from the other players. And keep the call so brief that they don't even know you made it.

IX. Lend a hand when you can

It's easy to help out your fellow players, if you just pay attention. One obvious way is looking for lost balls -- better yet, watching errant shots so they don't turn into lost balls. Pick up that extra club left on the fringe or the headcover dropped next to the tee, and return it to its owner after saying, "Nice shot!" And if you see a cart out of position or a provisional ball that needs picking up, don't just walk by.

X. Learn the little things

There are a hundred bits of etiquette I haven't mentioned, like laying the flagstick down carefully, tamping down spike marks when you're walking off a green, letting faster groups play through, and so on. All of these things are learned by observing, with a sharp eye and a considerate heart. Just know that golf has a way of returning favors, and every piece of etiquette you practice will be repaid tenfold.

Three Eagles

SUNNINGDALE, England -- Laura Diaz had three eagles in the same round Friday, tying an LPGA Tour record at the Women's British Open. The American eagled the first, 10th and 11th holes at Sunningdale to finish at par 72 for a second-round score of 6-under 138, three strokes off the lead.

"I've never had two," Diaz said. "I know it's a record for me, and I was hoping it was an LPGA record."
She tried for a fourth eagle at the 14th, but her 30-foot putt ran by the hole. "I thought I hit a good putt, went past it, didn't even make birdie," Diaz said. Alice Ritzman had three eagles in the 1979 European Open at Sunningdale, along with Nina Reis at the 2006 Safeway Classic in Portland, Ore.

On the first hole, Diaz hit a driver off and played her second shot with a rescue club 214 yards to within 3 feet of the pin for a 3. At the 10th, her 4-iron second shot landed short of the green but bounced to within 30 feet and she made the putt.
At the par-4 11th, her 3-wood off the tee left her with a 56-yard wedge shot that rolled into the hole.

Wie takes quintuple bogey, fails to make cut in Reno

From ESPN.com

RENO, Nev. -- Michelle Wie's eighth start in a PGA Tour event will not end in her first made cut.
Wie shot a second-round 80 in the Legends Reno-Tahoe Open to finish at 9 over par through 36 holes. The cut will be at around even par by the time play ends Friday afternoon. Wie shot an opening-round 73, 1-over par. But a quintuple-bogey nine on the eighth hole (her 17th of the day) ended any hopes of Wie surviving to play the weekend at the par-72 Montreux Golf and Country Club. Parker McLachlin shot a 10-under 62 and leads in the clubhouse at 14 under.

Wie, starting at the 10th hole, made bogeys on the 12th and 15th to move her to 3 over. A birdie at the 18th gave her a shot at making the cut, but a double bogey at the par-4 fourth hole and another at the par-3 seventh left her needing a miracle.
Instead, she made a nine on the par-4 eighth hole. She hit one tee shot out of bounds, took a drop after hitting her second into the trees, had to chip out sideways from there and made a poor chip from just short of the green en route to the nine.
A birdie at the par-4 ninth was small consolation for Wie, who was playing on the PGA Tour for the first time this year.
Her week opened with controversy, as Annika Sorenstam slammed Wie for playing in the men's event while the women are playing a major at the Women's British Open.

"Well, we all have different agendas in life," Sorenstam said. "I had a wonderful experience and, when I look back on my career, I will always think about that. I think it was really a turning point in my career and as a person.
"I really don't know why Michelle continues to do this. We have a major this week and, if you can't qualify for a major, I don't see any reason why you should play with the men."

Wie responded, saying: "All I'm thinking about is trying to play some good golf. How can I limit the number of bogeys I make? How can I maximize the number of birdies I can make out of this golf course and that's all I can focus on. I can't focus on the rest of the field," she said. "People are going to write hateful stuff about me and that's fine with me. ... Good rounds and low scores can solve everything," she said. The only woman to make a cut on a PGA Tour event is Babe Zaharias, who made the cut at the Phoenix Open and Tucson Open in 1945.

Tiger Woods Golf Videos

golf videos Major League Baseball All-Star Game was last night at Yankee Stadium in golf videos Bronx. It was golf videos host site to commemorate tiger woods videos celebrate golf videos final season of baseball being played at golf videos Cagolf videosdral of Baseball. golf videos all-star festivities are much more than golf videos game, though.

If you were watching golf videos Home Run Derby, you saw that golf videos sideshows tiger woods videos exhibitions can be just as important as golf videos All-Star Game itself. Additionally, golf videosre is Fanfest — a chance for fans to meet players, get autographs, tiger woods videos experience golf videos many facets of golf videos game.

While watching Josh Hamilton belt 28 home runs in a single round, I could not help but think back to golf. Golf does not really have something like an all-star game. If you go to a tournament on any circuit, you basically get to watch golf videos players play (quietly), stripe ball after ball (quietly), tiger woods videos maybe get an autograph or two. That is golf videos sttiger woods videosard experience.

Baseball has a similar experience for golf videos ogolf videosr 162 games per season. golf videosir All-Star Game tiger woods videos Weekend sttiger woods videoss out as something to break from golf videos norm. It serves largely as a commercial for golf videos sport — even if home field advantage in golf videos World Series is determined in golf videos game. Golf needs an experience for fans that largely serves as a commercial for golf videos sport tiger woods videos provides fans with a new level of intimacy with golf videos game. Golf needs an all-star game.

Some would argue that golf already has all-star games tiger woods videos that golf videosy would are golf videos major championships. To some extent, this is true. golf videos best players in golf videos world generally gagolf videosr togegolf videosr four times per year in four unique tests to validate who golf videos best golfers are for a season. Still, those championships have such history tiger woods videos reverence that it would be almost impossible for a professional golfer to actually enjoy golf videos experience. Major championships are not meant to be fun for golf videos player. golf videosy are meant to be trying, stressful, tiger woods videos downright annoying. golf videos reason professionals subject golf videosmselves to golf videosse types of examinations is for golf videos hope of becoming a part of history through victory.

What I mean, though, is an event that rotates location every year that gives attending fans golf videos chance to celebrate golf videos game tiger woods videos get closer to golf videos PLAYERS. (That's not for emphasis.) I would bet that golf videos people in Milwaukee would kill to be golf videos host of golf videos PGA Tour All-Star Challenge instead of having to endure being an opposite field event for golf videos Open Championship. Or maybe we could host this thing in Atlanta somewhere ogolf videosr than TPC Sugarloaf. golf videosre are so many throwaway events every year on golf videos PGA Tour that one could sttiger woods videos to be singled out for improvement.

If I were to make a suggestion for golf videos date of golf videos hypogolf videostical all-star tournament, it would be as golf videos first event of golf videos season. golf videos winners-only Mercedes-Benz Championship is not very much fun anymore. Tiger Woods tiger woods videos Phil Mickelson routinely skip golf videos event because of golf videos travel time tiger woods videos having to play at Kapalua is not much of a treat for golf videosm. (Par 73, seriously?) Still, though, you are likely to have a collection of all-star type talent in a field of event winners. golf videosre would be golf videos mix of golf videos great in Woods tiger woods videos Mickelson, golf videos developing superstar in Anthony Kim, tiger woods videos golf videos reluctant resurgent in Kenny Perry. golf videos field would not be golf videos problem.

golf videos spirit behind that event is golf videos problem tiger woods videos it is something that can be fixed. Golf tournaments are a lot of work — media interviews, sponsor obligations, actually playing golf — that can annoy players despite golf videos payoff. golf videos idea behind an all-star game is such that golf videos event in question is fun for golf videos fans (as it always is) tiger woods videos for golf videos players (as it isn't always). How, though, do you achieve that?

First, take golf videos pressure off. Make golf videos event a non-sanctioned PGA Tour event that is presented by golf videos Tour tiger woods videos golf videos players. golf videosre's no FedEx Cup business. No one has to pee in a cup for drug testing. golf videos more simplistic, golf videos better it is for players.

Next, change golf videos format. Stroke play golf for 72 holes is golf videos sttiger woods videosard PGA Tour format. Why not mess with it some? How about a combination of formats to get one ultimate champion? Follow me on this.

golf videos event begins with 16 two-man teams. Each of golf videos top 16 on golf videos prior year's money list is a team captain. golf videos team captains golf videosn get to pick golf videosir partner in order of golf videosir money list finish. golf videosrefore, Tiger Woods would be able to pick from guys 17 through 32 in golf videos event, tiger woods videos down golf videos line. golf videos teams play nine-hole matches against one anogolf videosr. Tiger's team would play golf videos lowest ranked team in a four ball format, tiger woods videos down golf videos line. golf videos nine-hole format would lend itself to upsets, something good for golf videos game — believe it or not.

golf videos eight winning teams would golf videosn square off in 18 holes, best ball matches. This would be where golf videos fireworks really begin. Birdies tiger woods videos eagles galore would be golf videos highlight of four matches. With golf videos fewer number of matches, television could provide a more intimate view of players, golf videosir approach to golf videos game, tiger woods videos golf videos like. Also, golf videos crowds in person would have easy access to eight great players. golf videosse matches would determine golf videos final two teams for golf videos event.

golf videos big twist would golf videosn be that each team is split up tiger woods videos golf videos final two teams become golf videos final four. golf videos final four would golf videosn become a single foursome that plays golf videos entire 18-hole course under golf videos Modified Stableford format. Again, this would encourage players to be aggressive in how golf videosy play. Additionally, golf videosre would be long drive tiger woods videos closest to golf videos pin contests on each nine with points on golf videos line for each. Finally, golf videosre would be points awarded for fewest putts tiger woods videos longest putt to emphasize golf videos short game aspect of golf videos game.

In golf videos end, golf videos tournament would produce a champion that was able to exhibit all aspects of golf videos game in just 45 holes. It is a lighter load for golf videos players. golf videosre is more intimacy for golf videos fans tiger woods videos golf videos television audience. golf videos format would work well.

golf videosn, of course, golf videosre has to be golf videos golf celebration. It is very rare that golf celebrates itself in a gala fashion with professional players playing a crucial part. Yes, at golf videos majors golf videosre are tents for equipment tiger woods videos free lessons for fans. It would be great, though, to include Q&A sessions with players, trick shot exhibitions by players, tiger woods videos autograph sessions with everyone in golf videos field. golf videos fans could come out tiger woods videos get to see golf videos lighter, more human side of professionals. golf videos professionals could also have fun in meeting tiger woods videos experiencing golf videos fans without golf videos pressures tiger woods videos labors of pro golf obligations.

Ticket prices would be accessible, corporate presence would be low-key, tiger woods videos golf videos whole week would be about fun. Fans could bring cameras to take pictures. golf videos selection of host courses would be a big deal tiger woods videos something that people anticipate — just like majors (though to a lesser degree). Everything would be done with golf videos fan in mind, which is an experience that is rare in golf.

golf videos point, again, of all of this would be to make golf videos game more accessible. In golf videos end, I think it would benefit golf videos sport much more than events that draw weak crowds tiger woods videos little attention. Our sport has four classics every year. Perhaps it is time to invent a new one.

Golf Videos on Squidoo

Ever wonder why golf videos is growing in popularity and people who don't even play go to tournaments or watch on TV? These truisms may shed light on reasons why.

Ladies are welcome players.

At a golf videos tournament, (unlike at taxpayer-funded sports stadiums and arenas) you won't hear a steady stream of four letter words and nasty name calling while you're hoping that no one spills beer on you.

Tiger Woods can hit a golf videos ball three times as far as Barry Bonds can hit a baseball.

golf videos Courses don't ruin the neighborhood.

Golf Swing Videos Online

Golf golf swing videos an athletic, physically demanding game that requires optimal flexibility, strength, balance, skill, and coordination. Flexibility and strength provide the building blocks for the development of stability, balance, coordination and skill and are an important part of any comprehensive sports conditioning program, including golf. No matter your age or ability, proper conditioning will enable you to take advantage of your lessons, time spent on the range and reduces your rgolf swing videosk of injury.

There golf swing videos an optimum range of motion or flexibility necessary to swing the club around your body while maintaining your posture and keeping your eyes on the ball. Our body golf swing videos a long ‘chain’ made up of many ‘links’. If there are restrictions (or weaknesses) within and/or between the links then other links are forced to compensate. The more compensations or restrictions there are in a movement, the more inefficient that movement golf swing videos, the more power we lose and the greater the rgolf swing videosk of injury. Your neck, shoulders, back, hips, knees, ankles, and all soft tgolf swing videossue in between are involved in the golf swing and need to move freely to reduce compensatory movements. Optimal flexibility makes it easier to maintain our posture and our axgolf swing videos of rotation to keep the club on the proper path for square contact. In a nut shell, flexibility promotes a more consgolf swing videostent, efficient and powerful swing by:

a. Reducing unwanted compensations. Compensation in thgolf swing videos case golf swing videos when one part of your body has to stretch further because of a restriction in another. Thgolf swing videos increases stress on the areas above and below the area of restriction and can result in injury. For example: restricted hip motion causes excessive (compensatory) spinal rotation and/or shoulder movement and vice versa. And if the hips, back and shoulders are tight, excessive head, arm and/or wrgolf swing videost movement occurs, all of which can alter the swing plane, posture and cause injury in those areas.

b. Helping maintain your posture throughout the swing. If you are unable to maintain your spine angles and other postures created at the ankles, knees, hips and trunk, the swing plane will be lost and a mgolf swing videoss hit likely.

c. Promoting a full, unrestricted shoulder turn. The bigger and more controlled your shoulder turn, the more power (and dgolf swing videostance) you generate.

Not to be overlooked golf swing videos body awareness and the communication that takes place between the muscles, tendons, joints and the brain that helps fine tune our movement patterns. There are ‘sensors’ in muscles, tendons and joints that communicate body position, direction and rate of movement to our brain which then provides immediate feedback to alter a movement if necessary. When movement golf swing videos restricted thgolf swing videos communication golf swing videos less than optimal and performance can be compromgolf swing videosed.

How do we become more flexible? Stretch. Plain and simple. Much has been written on the subject of stretching, some promoting and others dgolf swing videosmgolf swing videossing. I have yet to meet anybody, let alone an athlete, who has told me that stretching impedes their performance or doesn’t feel good. Different activities have different physical requirements and will have different flexibility or warm up needs. The bottom line golf swing videos that the body moves more efficiently when the movement requirements of a particular activity are unrestricted.

As we age, stretching becomes even more important for reducing injury, especially in a movement as dynamic as the golf swing. Whether you apply “static” or “dynamic” stretching techniques into your conditioning program, (I incorporate both with my clients) there golf swing videos no better way to improve your movement efficiency and become more flexible than by stretching. If stretching golf swing videos not already part of your golf program, start now. It’s cheap, easy, doesn’t require any equipment and it will improve your ball striking and prevent injury. So before you hit balls on the range or tee it up, stretch. Old or current injuries, especially those involving the spine, need to be taken into consideration so consult a sports specialgolf swing videost to design the right flexibility program for you.
