Revisiting The Worst Golf Round Of All Time
On ESPN.com yesterday, you might have read Jason Sobel's gory tale of the man man who shot a 66 on one nightmarish golf hole. (The 17th at TPC Sawgrass, if you're into that type of thing.) It's a terrifying tale, no less scary that we don't play golf. But then we recognized the last name of the golfer ... More »

Shout At The Dogleg
It's no secret that former hair metal icons began replacing their Aqua Net and sperm-killing lyrca with Tommy Bahama wardrobes as soon as most of them hit their 30s. Alice Cooper's like a five handicap, Tico Torres from Bon Jovi's 12.1, and, hey, even Tommy Lee's a 33. More »

It's Always Casual Monday With John Daly
When you're John Daly, you don't have to work particularly hard for media attention. And once you have that media attention, there's no real need to fancy yourself up for it; you're John Daly, dammit! Shoot, you don't even have to put on a danged shirt. More »

Some Guy Other Than Tiger Wins Masters
There's something inherently charming about the ceremony that follows a Masters Championship. For winning the most prestigious golf tournament, you don't get a trophy, or a plaque, or an oversized check. You win a jacket. Here, friend, congratulations; have a jacket. Stay warm, friend. More »

Let's Get Ready to Clap Politely!
Welcome fwends, to our coverage of Sunday at the Masters. The leaders are underway, and already Immelman (-10) and Snedeker (-8) have given a stroke back to the field (which is struggling a bit itself). Continue after the jump a breakdown of the leaders and contenders, as well as an updated leaderboard. More »

I'm Not Your Fwend, Buddy
You see, she's dressed like that because it was... raining. Forget all of that, the rain is gone and everybody is on the course in Augusta. Jim Nantz just called me his friend, so you know we're ready to go. Defending champion Zach Johnson is putting together the round of the day, but all his -4 round can do is offset yesterday's 76. Tiger has been stable through 13, if nothing else. The main attraction is one under for his round and two under for the tournament. Trevor Immelman still holds his one shot lead of playing partner Brandt Snedeker, but FIGJAM and Steve Flesch have each picked up a stroke, moving them to two back. Continue after the jump for updates on any major happenings. More »

Woodrow's Woes and Rory's Belt
Rory Sabatini will have plenty of time to do some more shopping at Hot Topic this weekend, as he became one of the top players to miss the cut at the Masters. Those who did survive the first two days at Augusta National are now underway despite a bit of atmospheric wetness. KJ Choi is already +3 for today's round, and he looks positively determined to finish in last place. Continue after the jump for a breakdown of the leaders and contenders, including Eldrick Tiger Woodrow Woods. More »

The Masters Turns ESPN's Volume Down A Few Notches
From what we saw of it, we kind of enjoyed ESPN's Masters coverage yesterday. With all the screaming and beeping and what-not on the network anymore, it was almost pleasant to have the sleepiness inherent in Masters coverage wash over The Leader. A channel in which everyone seems afraid to raise their voice makes for happy viewers. More »

The Masters Are Not Back Back Back
The Masters does begin tomorrow morning, at 8 a.m. (So set your alarms!) And, as mentioned last month, it will be telecast on ESPN, minus Chris Berman. We do not envy the exec who had to deliver that news to Boomer. More »

As a break from all this tourney business, we present you with John Daly, once again avoiding, you know, training, singing "Knockin' On Heaven's Door" with Hootie and the Blowfish. Boy, he sure does look good. And, at last, Daly has made Tiger jealous.
John Daly Isn't That Bad Of A Singer, Actually
As a break from all this tourney business, we present you with John Daly, once again avoiding, you know, training, singing "Knockin' On Heaven's Door" with Hootie and the Blowfish. Boy, he sure does look good. And, at last, Daly has made Tiger jealous.

John Daly Is Just A Victim Of Circumstance!
From AP: "John Daly woke up Wednesday morning to read that swing coach Butch Harmon fired him. Then he got a phone call when he was at the entrance to Bay Hill letting him know he had been kicked out of the Arnold Palmer Invitational for missing the pro-am." Wait, that sentence is wrong. It should have read: More »

Who's Sorry Now? Golf Edition
It's bad enough that your name is John Henry Isenhour III. But now word has leaked that you killed a protected species of hawk with a golf drive, on purpose, and there are criminal charges pending against you. Poor dumb sap. The only thing remaining of course is a phony, slapdash apology. Take it away, Tripp. More »

Tiger Is Unstoppable
Tiger Woods just put away Stewart Cink record fashion at the WGC Match Play Final by a score of 8&7. What that means is that Tiger was leading by 8 holes with just 7 remaining in their 36-hole match. Although they never got anywhere near that 36th hole, Tiger managed to pile up 11 victorious holes to Cink's 3. More »
