Phil Mickelson

We all thought Kenny Perry would be the feel good story today if he could hold off Tiger Woods at the Tour Championship. Someone did hold off Tiger, but it wasn’t Perry. It was Phil Mickelson. Mickelson, after being over par for the tournament after round one, finished at 9-under for the championship, three shots ahead of Tiger. I said in my predictions this week that I just hoped Phil would be in contention on Sunday, and he did me one better. He won the whole thing.

Being a huge Kenny Perry fan, I was excited to see him shoot 64 today at East Lake, and put himself atop the leaderboard after round three of the Tour Championship.

After a good round yesterday, there was little doubt that Tiger Woods would make his way towards the top of the leaderboard today. Tiger is your leader after two rounds at the Tour Championship, and looks to have all the confidence in the world heading into the weekend.

The Tour Championship got off to a great start today in Atlanta, as the best players in the world kicked off the final tournament in the FedEx Cup playoffs. And fans were not disappointed, as some excellent golf took place in round number one.

Well after a week off for the PGA, it’s time to kick things into high gear as the Tour Championship is upon us. Whether you like the whole playoff system or not, this will still be an exciting tournament, and will offer some suspense I’m sure.

It’s Monday morning, which means it’s time to take a look back at this weekend’s action at the BMW Championship. Plenty of interesting things to talk about, so let’s get right to it:

In a not-so surprising turn of events at the BMW Championship, a man named Woods has found a way to get to the top of the leaderboard. That’s right ladies and gentlemen, Tiger Woods is at the top. Woods shot a round a 4-under par 67 today, and has made his way atop the leaderboard, and is currently tied with Mark Wilson at 7-under. Here’s the AP story on the day’s action.

The third tournament of the FedEx Cup playoffs gets going tomorrow in Chicago, as Camilo Villegas tries to defend his BMW Championship in what should be an exciting few days of golf. Here’s a video recapping some final round highlights from last year:

Didn’t get a chance to watch much of the action today, as college football got underway. I watch a whole lot of golf, but thought that I’d join in on the college football fever today and watch some games. However, did see a little bit at TPC Boston, and saw enough to realize that Jim Furyk is playing very well right now. He and Sean O’Hair are your co-leaders after the second round, both at 12-under par.

The first round is over at the Deutsche Bank Championship, with several interesting storylines to follow heading into tomorrow. Here’s a link to the AP story on today’s action. Also, here’s your current leaderboard heading into Saturday. And now, here’s my thoughts on an eventful first day at TPC Boston:

Well action for the day has completed at Liberty National in New Jersey, with some fairly low scores being posted on the round. It seems that Sergio Garcia has forgot about that rough final round last week at the Wyndham, as he shares the lead at 6-under par with Steve Marino and Paul Goydos. We all sort of wondered how Sergio would bounce back after that final round struggle last week, which concluded with the bunker shot that sort of rolled all the way around the hole before stopping an inch short. But it seems as though he has answered [...]

It’s almost time for the first event of the FedEx Cup playoffs to get underway, with The Barclays getting started tomorrow morning at Liberty National in New Jersey. Therefore, it’s Wednesday, and we all know what time it is: prediction time! With that in mind, let’s get it started:
