Tiger Woods – ‘Contesting First Wyndham C’ship Like Competing In Australia’.
Tiger Woods will tee up in his first Wyndham Championship on a golf course in Greensboro that could very much be in Australia or Japan.
Why?
Because in the 27 holes Woods has played on the Sedgefield the 14-time Major Champion chose to use 2-iron off many of the tees.
And there was one scenario at the uphill par four 17th hole where Woods pro-am partner, Chris Park and who plays in the NBL for the L.A. Clippers, was so impressed with Woods’ 2-iron shot he used the same club and after also ...
Tiger Woods Needing To Make Big Noise In ‘Small Town Atomsphere’ – 2015 Wyndham C’ship.
Tiger Woods will need to make some big noise in what he describes as the ‘small town atomsphere’ ahead of making his first appearance in this week’s Wyndham Championship in Greensboro, North Carolina.
Scotland’s Sandy Lyle is a former two-time winner of the event yet Woods has never contested the event that has also been won in the past and eight-times by legendary Sam Snead.
Woods, who has slumped to 284th on the World Rankings, is not only desperate to win for a first time in ...
Tiger Woods ‘Could Not Be More Proud’ Of Jason Day.
Fellow PGA Championship winner Tiger Woods said he could not be more proud of Australia’s Jason Day who finally broke through to win a first major last Sunday at Whistling Straits.
Woods and Day have become good friends in recent years and that was no more evident during the opening two rounds of last month’s Open Championship at St. Andrews.
Louis Oosthuizen was a virtual ‘passenger’ for the two days when it came to conversation with Woods and Day chatting at every opportunity.
And ...
Aussies Continue To Rule – Coletta Collects U.S. Amateur Medallist Honours.
Aussies continue to rule the golf world!
Two days after Jason Day won a first Major Championship and about three hours drive south to suburban Chicago and 19-year old Victorian Brett Coletta posted a 36-hole total of 7-under-par 133 to win medalist honours in the weather-delayed stroke-play qualifying of the 2015 U.S. Amateur Championship at Olympia Fields Country Club.
Coletta’s 4-under-par 66 on the North Course Tuesday placed him one stroke ahead of David Oraee, of Greeley, Colo., who shot ...
Luke Donald … “I Can Sympathise With Tiger Woods”.
Tiger Woods is not the only player contesting this week’s Wyndham Championship for a first occasion in their playing career.
England’s Luke Donald is making his debut in Greensboro and like Woods he needs a good showing this week if he is to qualify for the up-coming FedeEx Cup Play-Off Series.
The Chicago-based Brit is right on the cusp for making the Play-Offs in 124th place and needing to at least make the cut this week on the Sedgefield Country Club course.
“This is an old school ...
Tiger Woods Upstaged By His Caddy At Wyndham Championship.
Tiger Woods found himself upstaged by his caddy Joe LaCava during today’s Wyndham Championship here in Greensboro, North Carolina.
Woods is contesting the event for a first time in his career which may sounds surprising but then three years ago he teed-up in the 2012 Honda Classic for a first occasion.
Woods got his first look at the course on Wednesday afternoon when he played a front nine practice round with 2016 Ryder Cup Captain, Davis Love 111.
However Woods played a full 18 holes today ...
Bernie’s Birthday At ‘The Brickyard’ & Nearly 36-Years After First Visit.
The past two weeks travelling the States to report on golf has very been a reminder for me back to the 70s and including Monday in celebrating my birthday.
I made mention that while Tour Miss and I were in Ohio for the WGC – Bridgestone Invitational I attended a Peter Frampton concert some 20-minutes drive north of Akron.
The first and only time I had been to Peter Frampton concert was in 1978 in Sydney when Frampton’s LP – Frampton Comes Alive – was the then largest selling ...
