Play With The Stars Of Tomorrow, Today!

Quick Hits – Vol. 5
By now I’m sure everyone is pretty tired of the whole Tiger Woods cheating scandal and the poorly photoshop-ed pictures, and many golf fans wish the whole thing would just go away.

Taking the design cues and name from their Idea Pro Black muscle back irons, they have a black nickel plating just like the irons to reduce glare and give the club a menacing look. I call them the Darth Vader of… »
What’s wrong with the LPGA Tour?
The English-only policy the LPGA Tour tried to install recently drew a lot of criticism, and they promptly retracted it. Sadly, I think it’s probably needed, but in some watered down form, used not to scare or alienate foreign players, but to encourage them to learn the language. The throngs of Korean girls – who… »
