PARAMUS, N.J. – Here are some things I think I think after a third-round 3-under 68 at The Northern Trust Saturday at Ridgewood Country Club: • Let’s start with the good. This was Tiger’s first bogey-free round on the PGA Tour in 1,148 days. Yup, since The Greenbrier in 2015. • Driving, for the second […]
PARAMUS, N.J. – Tiger Woods began this season with a list of goals, from the more general plan of physically withstanding the rigors of a full year to more specific targets like qualifying for the final WGC-Bridgestone Invitational. It wasn’t until he was deep into the summer that he began to envision advancing all the […]
Leave it to Phil Mickelson to admire his own shot and talk trash all at once. As you’ll see and hear in the video below from the par-3 second on Saturday, Mickelson flushes an 8-iron from 169 yards, and while the ball is in the air, it sounds like someone says, “Better be better than […]
The CP Women’s Open used to be designated as one of the LPGA’s major championships, back when it was called the du Maurier Classic. For Brooke Henderson and the 15 other Canadians teeing it up this week, it still feels like a major, their sixth major. Henderson electrified Wascana Country Club in Saskatchewan on Friday. […]
PARAMUS, N.J. – Phil Mickelson fiddled with his cellphone as he clumsily searched through Twitter like a man trying to get dressed in the dark. The 48-year-old could be forgiven for his social media ineptitude, Lefty had joined the Twitter world just hours earlier and was being peppered with questions from reporters about a recent […]
Stacy Lewis is surprised how active she is on maternity leave as she gets ready to welcome her first child into the world. Yes, the only American to win the Rolex Player of the Year Award over the last 24 years – twice, actually – is following what’s happening in the LPGA, but not too […]
PARAMUS, N.J. – Let the annual scramble begin. For many the PGA Tour playoffs bring a unique brand of pressure, with players vying to move on to the next event or an early off-season. Friday’s cut at The Northern Trust brought a bit of clarity to this race, with six players poised to play their […]
PARAMUS, N.J. – Phil Mickelson once played a Masters with two drivers in his bag and a U.S. Open with no driver, so Adam Scott’s theory for carrying two putters is hardly groundbreaking. “Logically, it sounds good to me to have a putter you like for long putts and one for short putts, if that’s […]
PARAMUS, N.J. – Brooks Koepka continued his quest to demolish everything that stands in his way Friday at The Northern Trust. While playing with Justin Thomas and Dustin Johnson – a grouping of the top three in both the FedExCup rankings and the world ranking – Koepka shot a spiffy 6-under 30 on the final […]
PARAMUS, N.J. – Here are some things I think I think after a second consecutive mediocre 71 at The Northern Trust at Ridgewood Country Club: • Just like Thursday, Tiger made two birdies and two bogeys in his second round. He was 2 under after 14 holes and bogeyed two of his last four, including […]
