The Last Two Major Champions: A Tale of the Tape
Major winners come in all shapes and sizes. The last two majors were won by two Northern Irishmen: Rory Mcllroy, a pimply faced kid, and Darren Clarke, a beer-bellied old geezer.
Rory Mcllroy won the US Open in June at the spry age of 22. That’s not old even old enough to ...
Kasco Golf Gloves Ever Soft
White Leather w/ Ball Marker Button
Have you ever wondered how many golf gloves are consumed in the United States every year? By one estimate, there are approximately 10 million golfers in the U.S. -- if each uses only TWO gloves per year, that's 20 million golf gloves. While many golfers use a ...

Tiger Doesn’t Change His Stripes
In an apparent effort to show us that he still doesn’t care about public opinion, Tiger Woods dropped his long-time caddy (of 13 years), Steve Williams, this week without notice or provocation. Naturally, we don’t have Tiger’s side of the story (which we’re used to), but it ...
