Hey, The Masters Start Tomorrow
Even though it's dreary outside and we're kind of ill from it — we don't ask much from weather except for it to make up its mind — it is obviously springtime, because The Masters start tomorrow....
Cool Guys, Hanging With The Cool Guys From The Band
Well, if you're going to pick two random athletes who would show up at a Nickelback concert, it's tough to say we're surprised it would be these two....
Cultural Oddsmaker: What Will Tiger Woods Name His Baby?
AJ Daulerio's Cultural Oddsmaker runs every Friday. Email him to let him know what you think....
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 ...
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....
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....
Everyone Else Is Really Just Wasting Their Time
I really don't know what to tell you here. It's Tiger Woods, it's Sunday, it's a major tournament, and it's over after the front 9. In fact, it was probably over before he teed off. The man has just been incredible....
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....
Keith Van Horn's Contribution To Society Has Been Judged More Valuable Than Yours
We all know and have long ago accepted that professional athletes make too much damn money, but nothing hammers that point home quite like peeking at SI.com's list of the 50 highest-earning American athletes in sports and seeing Chris Webber, Michael Finley, Jason Giambi, and Stephon Marbury all in ...
Tiger Woods Wins One For Earl
It's hard to muster up too much sarcasm after Tiger's victory at Royal Liverpool this morning. He tapped in for par on the 18th to secure his 11th professional major, gave a primal fist pump, and then broke down crying in his caddie's arms, thinking surely of how his father wouldn't be there to gi...
Sergio Garcia Tries To Break The Duck
Despite Tiger Woods being awarded the British Open title yesterday afternoon by Pat Forde, the rest of the field decided to show up and play today anyway. And Tiger still does have the lead, but just by a stroke. Sergio Garcia shot a course record-tying 65 today to get himself to within 1 of Tiger...
Tiger Woods, Back To Normal
As Tiger Woods soars to the top of the British Open leaderboard, doing what he can to re-establish his dominance of the sport, we are pleased to see that he has still not learned how to avoid the awkward high-five. That's just simply Tiger being Tiger....
Favre, Jeter, Kobe, Barry... All Your Favorites
Harris Interactive conducts a poll every year to determine America's favorite athletes. Michael Jordan has occupied the top spot every year since 1993, but this year, Tiger Woods shoved him out of there like Bryon Russel, and Tiger took MJ's top spot. I guess the people of America really loved tha...
Tiger Woods Actually Offends Someone
After he failed to chase down Phil Mickelson in The Masters over the weekend, Tiger Woods told reporters: "I putted atrociously today. Once I got on the greens I was a spaz." We blanched when we heard him use the term "spaz," if just because that's pretty much what every grade school teacher calle...
That Was Not As Much Fun As It Should Have Been
Phil Mickelson is your 2006 Masters winner. There was no drama on 18, there was no big finish. The 18th was just a formality. Phil Mickelson bumrushed the field, or perhaps more accurately, let the field bumrush themselves, en route to an easy green jacket....
