Like most golf fans, I’ve had enough of this Tiger Woods drama. Like seriously. I do not care anymore. Why, you may ask? Because it just doesn’t offer me any sort of reason to create a new opinion on the whole thing. So when Vanity Fair released their story (link contains partial nudity) on the whole situation, forgive me if I didn’t jump up and say “this is outrageous!”

Watching golf so far this season has been fun. I mean really fun. You might not feel that way unless you’re a huge Ernie Els fan. I am. That’s why it’s been great to see Els have a great start to the year by winning the last two tournaments, the WGC-CA Championship and the Arnold Palmer Invitational at Bay Hill. Several guys have stepped up and played well in Tiger’s absence, but Ernie has topped them all so far. Which leads me to wonder, is his switching caddies at the Masters that big a deal?

It should come as no surprise that the hoopla over Tiger Woods‘ return to golf is already garnering plenty of attention. And the Masters doesn’t start until next Thursday. But that hasn’t stopped the oddsmakers from formulating what they believe to be the favorites for this year’s tournament at Augusta. Oh, and there’s British bookmakers, who are focused on more articulate betting subjects, such as whether or not Tiger will kiss an anonymous blonde before teeing off in round one.

Entering the 2010 LPGA season, we knew how important it was going to be that new commissioner Michael Whan get things going in the right direction in terms of marketing. With the ladies tour losing events heading into the year, they simply had to start marketing their product more than it had ever been marketed before. And well, this is a good start. News has come out today that Michelle Wie has signed an endorsement deal with McDonalds, which should certainly help get the word out about the sport a little more.

So it seems like every time that we get excited about a golf tournament (star-studded field, good golf course was the case this week at Innisbrook), there’s always a Tiger alert. But now that you’ve heard and probably seen the Tiger interviews on ESPN and Golf Channel, let’s talk about the play on the course this weekend, which saw Jim Furyk picking up the big victory at the Transitions Championship.

News just broke that Tiger Woods has been involved in two separate interviews, one with ESPN’s Tom Rinaldi and one with Golf Channel’s Kelly Tilghman, and both will air tonight on each network. The ESPN interview has already aired (as of 7:45 PM ET) and the Golf Channel one will air at approximately 8 PM ET.

While most of the talk this past week has been about the return of Tiger Woods, I hope golf fans didn’t forget about the star-studded field playing at this weekend’s Transitions Championship at Innisbrook. There’s a familiar name currently on top as the third round is underway.

When we found out a few days ago that Tiger Woods would make his return to golf at Augusta National to play in the Masters, all the speculation started turning towards whether Tiger could actually win this thing. For a guy that hasn’t played golf in quite a while, it was pretty interesting to see those comments. But this is Tiger Woods we’re talking about. Could he actually do it?

It is officially official golf fans! The news we had all hoped that we would hear has came down, and that is that Tiger Woods will return to Augusta on April 8 to the play the Masters. While I am certainly ecstatic at this news, there can’t be a happier man on the planet right now than PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem.

It looks like golf fans who just haven’t been all that into golf since the departure of Tiger Woods might soon be able to enjoy their favorite sport once again. Reports are flying all over the place that Woods could return as soon as the Arnold Palmer Invitational.

Everyone knew he had it in him. Most had been predicting that Camilo Villegas would have a breakout year for several years now. But now, it looks like he could be on the verge of his biggest season ever.

Now that all the Tiger Woods off-course issues have settled down a little bit, more focus will start to turn to when the best player in the world will get back to competition. While some think Woods won’t even return this season, Jack Nicklaus thinks otherwise.
