Sergio Garcia Treats The Cup Like Pacman Jones Treats The Ladies
That's just gross. And I'm sorry, Sergio, the velocity at which the spit propelled from your now disgusting-to-me face does not excuse your filth....
That'll Teach You To Be Nice, Boo
There's no reason to get into a lot of the details, but there's a golfer named Tom Johnson, and yesterday, he had this long shot that he had to play from on the green, off the green, and then back on. He hit the shot, and he hit it well, but he didn't tell his caddy to remove the pin, which is somet...
Why Do They Mic Up Golfers, Anyway?
For all the talk of Tim Hardaway over the last week, we mustn't forget this grand moment from last year's Masters, when Vijay Singh, upset with a slicing drive, croaked "Fucking Faggot Motherfucker!" in his special Vijah Singh accent....
Fuzzy Zoeller Is Not Happy With A Bored Law Firm Worker
You thought Jay Mariotti was the only person overly sensitive to Wikipedia criticism, but apparently golfer Fuzzy Zoeller is even worse about it: He's a law firm with an employee he believes posted defamatory statements about him on the site....
Tiger Woods Hits It Like A Champ
Deviant perversion Romance is in the air today here on Deadspin, as women that I find attractive keep doing things that make them less attractive. First, Hingis goes and gets engaged... and now, Elin Nordegren has gotten herself impregnated. Tiger is presumably the father, but I wouldn't rule out ...
Ain't Nothin' Wrong With A Little Golf, A Little Cunnilingus, Ain't Never Hurt Nobody
Here's a very special Christmas gift for the lesbian golfers in the Deadspin audience, as well as the people in charge of programming at ESPN. From Outsports.com comes the news that a new lesbian golf tour is being launched in 2007. This will be perfect when the Worldwide Leader finally launches E...
Days Of Blunder
In a move that we liken to John Glenn falling out of the teacup ride at Disneyland, NASCAR champion Jimmie Johnson broke his wrist on Friday when he fell out of a golf cart during a celebrity golf tournament in Florida....
Who's Sorry Now?
It's been quite a year so far for youth football, hasn't it? Spectators being mistaken for terrorists, police officers tasering rambunctious fans ... one concerned parent even pulled a gun on a coach. Compared to that, the following may not seem like much, except for the heartfelt, tearful apologi...
It May Not Affect What You Watch This Weekend, But Arnold Palmer Is Retiring
I could be wrong, but I believe this is going to be the first ever Deadspin post about Seniors - excuse me, Champions Tour - golf. And ideally, that post would come for some reason like an old man got his blood pressure medicine confused with his Levitra and played a round of golf with a four-hour...
Hey, What's The Senate's Problem With The PGA?
On September 13, a bill was introduced to Congress "Congratulating The Professional Golfers' Association of America on its 90th anniversary." On September 25, it passed the House, and September 26 it went to the Senate....
We Suck At Everything, Apparently
I realize that golf isn't that big of a deal here at Deadspin, unless Tiger Woods is whiffing on an awkward high-five, or Phil Mickelson is choking away a tournament on the 72nd hole. But the Ryder Cup is one of the few events in sports when the competitors involved care about the outcome as much as...
Cultural Oddsmaker: The Irish Menace Of The Ryder Cup
AJ Daulerio's Cultural Oddsmaker runs every Friday. Email him to say hi....
Only Fake Porn Can Make The Ryder Cup Worthwhile
We're not really sure why we're supposed to care about the Ryder Cup. First off, it's golf: It's the furthest thing from a team sport, and no matter how hard they try to convince us that we're rooting for "America," it's hard to inspire enthusiasm to root for the home country to avoid the bunkers wh...
Tiger Wins In An Un-Tigerly Fashion
The man wins even when he isn't trying to win. Tiger was shaky down the stretch (!), holding a three-stroke lead with six holes to play, and ending up in a playoff with Stewart Cink. Four holes later, Tiger Woods was the WGC-Bridgestone champion....
Japanese Golfer Proudly Displays His Balls
At yesterday's Reno-Tahoe Open, Yusaku Miyazato recorded two holes-in-one during the same round. It's never been done before, and normally, something like that would make me want to punch the guy in his face, just out of pure jealousy. But Miyazato, who barely speaks English, was asked how he'd cele...
What Tiger Will Be Up To In Five Years
We don't get into Tiger Woods much around — except to make fun of his facial expressions — mainly because Tiger Woods is, by both design and nature, an intensely boring, robotic character. He wins, and he wins again, and he breaks into a recognizable human emotion every couple of years. This is not ...
Tiger Woods Is Ready To PARTY
We congratulate Tiger Woods on his 12th career major yesterday, an easy victory at the PGA Championship. We are reminded through these pictures, once again, that nobody celebrates quite like Tiger Woods....
Luke Donald's Going To Need A Huge Pair Of Balls
I'm going to try to not make this post entirely about Tiger Woods, as tomorrow's golf post will probably be entirely about Tiger Woods. But yeah, Tiger Woods is tied with Luke Donald for the lead of the PGA Championship after 54 holes. Tiger Woods, Tiger Woods, Tiger Woods....
Jordan Banned From Mountainous Region Of Western U.S.?
There was much wailing and gnashing of teeth last month at the news of Michael Jordan's acrobatic withdrawal from the American Century Championship Celebrity Golf Tournament at Stateline, Nev. Particularly annoying for many fans who had devoted large hunks of time — and considerable coin — to get ...
It's Not Easy For Canadians To Win Golf Clubs
So here's something funny and obscure that a reader just pointed out to us. This week, Sports Illustrated subscribers — like ourselves — were treated to a special promotion with Callaway Golf. Basically, you send in a contest card, and if you win, you get a X460 Driver and two X Fairway Woods. We ...
