A GOLF BLOG For Golf Nuts
Surely, by now you probably know Tiger Woods is teeing it up this weekend in the Pebble Beach National Pro-Am. If you don't know, you must be living under a rock. Also, if you didn't know, Tiger Woods is teeing it up this weekend alongside his buddy, Tony Romo, who is a pretty good player in his … [Read more...]
I just had that feeling, you know? Like the feeling you had when Tiger Woods was stepping up to putts at Augusta, or Bay Hill, or Torrey Pines so many years ago. The only problem, he hadn't done anything meaningful in golf since 2009. To be exact, it was 749 days and 26 starts, but I still had … [Read more...]
When I first read this article in the January issue of Golf Magazine, I really wasn't too surprised to find more than half of the 50 caddies surveyed have witnessed some form of cheating during a PGA Tour event. Think about it. With the amount of money on the line and the amount of prestige that … [Read more...]
I recently put out a guest blogger request on Twitter and I am happy to say I have found a good article for the first ever guest post on Front9Back9 Golf Blog. This comes from Cory Walton in San Antonio, who is currently trying to finish strong towards his electrical engineering degree from … [Read more...]
The tournament organizers are probably waking up from a massive hangover this morning after partying all night now that the main attraction at the Frys.com Open has made the cut. After the first round spectacle, which Tiger Woods called his worst putting day ever, people started questioning his … [Read more...]
The season long run for the Fed Ex Cup ended on Sunday with high drama. Bill Haas took home the $10 million bonus along with a $1.44 million check for winning the Tour Championship on the third playoff hole by extending the playoff after a ballsy par save on the second playoff hole. Even after … [Read more...]
A few months ago, I wrote an article asking which American golfer had the best chance to become #1 if Tiger Woods continues his fall from grace. There was one person on my list that I pretty much wrote off and Steve Stricker proved me wrong today. The win today at The Memorial Tournament gave … [Read more...]
Typically The Heritage is played the week after The Masters, which would have been last week. Instead, the Valero Texas Open was moved to the week after Augusta and Hilton Head was moved to this week. With most of the big guys taking the week off last week, they will be back in action this week. … [Read more...]
In 2010, TPC San Antonio ranked as the sixth hardest golf course played on the PGA Tour. In 2011, when all is said and done, the golf course this year may go down as THE toughest course on TOUR. The TPC San Antonio Oaks course is just flat-out tough. On top of the challenging greens and strong … [Read more...]
Look, I'm not going to sit here and pile on Kevin Na. To say he had a rough go around at the 9th hole today during the Valero Texas Open is an understatement. Now I am not a professional golfer, but I can say pretty confidently I have never written down a 15 on the scorecard. I can remember a … [Read more...]
The PGA Tour moves to my hometown this week and the TPC San Antonio will be the home of the Valero Texas Open. We have five players who finished in the top 10 at The Masters and another two that finished in the top 20. For my picks this week I am going to play off the momentum of … [Read more...]
There’s still a lot of golf to be played and I think most people are taking the “let’s wait and see if he can carry it to the weekend” approach, but the one thing I know for sure is golf needs Tiger Woods near the top of the leaderboard and the buzz was back in full gear yesterday. I was … [Read more...]
