PGA Busts of the Week: AT&T National - Congressional Country Club - Bethesda, MD

For as many solid rounds as there were with the favorable weather conditions this week, there were just some other tournament performances that were positively head scratching. Some of them could possibly be contributed to old age and exhaustion, although they'd probably be upset that I'm making...

PGA Weekly Sleepers: AT&T Classic - Congressional Country Club - Bethesda, MD

This week the Tour heads to Congressional, which is the site for the 2011 U.S. Open. It's already being prepped for the tournament, so this week will be a stark departure of the low-scoring courses from the last couple of weeks. Congressional checks in at about 7,200 yards, which means even the shorter...

PGA Start 'Em Sit 'Em: Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial - Colonial Country Club - Ft. Worth, TX

The Tour this week moves to one of the classic courses on Tour. Colonial has been a part of the PGA for over a half-century, and its genius is in its simplicity. It's not an especially long course (a little over 7,000 yds), but it's very technically challenging, and it all comes down to one word;...

It's Not the Player - It's the Golf

PGA Top Weekly Perfomances: The Players Championship - TPC Sawgrass - Ponte Vedre Beach, FL

Rounds the first three days of The Players Championship were pretty high; but the final day was disastrous. 25-35 MPH sustained winds with consistent gusts between 45-50 MPH made TPC Sawgrass nearly unplayable most of the...

PGA Tournament Sleepers - Verizon Heritage - Harbour Town Golf Links - Hilton Head Island, SC

Choosing a sleeper might prove to be a bit difficult this week, because it's not a full field, so a lot of my choices for "starts" would be considered sleepers already. So when reading through this, just consider that I didn't pick these folks to "start" for a reason, so they...

PGA Busts of the Week: Arnold Palmer Invitational - Bay Hill Club and Lodge - Orlando, Florida

It will be tough to find three golfers who really stunk up the joint this weekend. Vijay jumped out to a huge score on Friday (-9) and that put the cut line on a tough course at +1. This means golfers like Colin Montgomerie (72-71, +3) got cut, where most weeks he would be in the mix for the weekend...
