Jim Furyk Wins the Verizon Heritage…..in a Very Odd Way

AUTHOR: Blake Lovell | IN: Jim Furyk, Verizon Heritage | COMMENTS: None Yet

You don’t see many tournaments go the way that this week’s Verizon Heritage did. You had Jerry Kelly ace the same hole for the second time in his career on Thursday. You had first-round leader K.J. Choi finish eleven shots off the lead after the final round. And then you had Brian Davis give himself a two-stroke penalty in a playoff against Jim Furyk, which gave Furyk his second victory of the season.

The Art of Building Momentum in Golf…..K.J. Choi Style

AUTHOR: Blake Lovell | IN: K.J. Choi, Verizon Heritage | COMMENTS: None Yet

In my predictions for the Verizon Heritage this week, I pretty much gave K.J. Choi no chance to win this week. Although I came out of the Masters with a new found respect for him, I just wasn’t sure that he would be able to avoid a letdown this week, in a much different setting. Well, K.J. clearly read my picks (at least I hope he did), and is out to take the tournament by storm. He has a two-shot lead heading into the second round tomorrow, after shooting a 7-under 64 in the first round today at Harbour Town. [...]

Is Tiger the Favorite at Augusta?

AUTHOR: Blake Lovell | IN: The Masters, Tiger Woods | COMMENTS: None Yet

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?

AUTHOR: Blake Lovell | IN: Presidents Cup | COMMENTS: None Yet

The first day of the Presidents Cup has come and gone, and the United States has a 3 1/2 to 2 1/2 lead over the European team.
It was a great day of golf, with some pretty exciting matches taking place throughout the day. The two big teams for the United States got the job done, which was no surprise considering the pairings for the day. Here’s a small AP story on the day’s action.
Tiger Woods and Steve Stricker got the easy 6 and 4 victory over Geoff Ogilvy and Ryo Ishikawa, while Phil Mickelson and Anthony Kim picked up some [...]

Sabbatini and Marino Lead the BMW Championship

AUTHOR: Blake Lovell | IN: BMW Championship, Camilo Villegas, FedEx Cup Playoffs, Padraig Harrington, Tiger Woods | COMMENTS: None Yet

Didn’t get a chance to see much of the action today at Cog Hill, but here’s an AP story recapping the day’s golf in Chicago.
And you can view the full leaderboard here.
Rory Sabbatini is clearly a little angry after being left off the Presidents Cup team, and shot a 5-under 66 in the first round today. But we’ll see if that can be used as momentum throughout the entire week.
