Sergio Garcia Makes Tiger Woods "Fried Chicken" Joke, Apologizes
For over a week now, we've had to talk about this weak golf "feud" between Sergio Garcia and Tiger Woods which started in 1999 and got heated, or at least slightly warm, a week and a half ago. Garcia hit a terrible shot on a par-5 second hole at The Players Championship, and blamed Woods for the mis...
The Tiger Woods-Sergio Garcia Slapfight Continues
Golf's longest-running feud reached new levels of cattiness on Monday.

Golfer Hits Tee Shot Into A Bathroom, Sends Announcers Into Giggles
Yesterday in the quarterfinals of the Volvo World Match Play Championship, Nicolas Colsaerts hit a tee shot on a par-4 that flew off the course, over the rest area, and into a bathroom.

Sergio Garcia Stirs Up The Ghosts And The Water
There's no shame in splashing short of TPC Sawgrass's iconic 17th, as Sergio Garcia did yesterday (twice!). Better players have found the drink in the past, and will in the future. But it's hard to beat Garcia's meltdown for pathos, because of history both ancient and recent....

A Feud Between Tiger Woods And Sergio Garcia Is Not Much Of A Feud

Golf Marshal Callously Plops Turtle Into Pond
A golf marshal had the fun task of removing a turtle from the course and putting it into a pond at the Players Championship on Friday. Maybe the marshal didn't appreciate the way the turtle tried to bite him as he (she?) was being escorted, but he ended up dropping that turtle into the water with no...
Old Lady Drives Car Onto Golf Course During U.S. Open Qualifier
A reader named David sent us this. He said his friend was playing today at Emerald Hills in Hollywood, Fla., when "an old lady (par down here) drove onto the cart path and continued into the sand trap." If she wanted to play through that badly, she should have just asked....

Deer Antler Spray Panic: Vijay Singh Is Dumb, But He's Not A Doper
Vijay Singh admitted to using deer antler spray, a "supplement" containing the banned substance IGF-1. But deer antler spray is so ineffective at delivering IGF-1 that the PGA tour has decided not to punish him. This is almost more embarrassing for Singh: he may not be suspended, but he did get scam...
