(Darron Cummings, Associated Press – Ap) (PhatzRadio / AP) — Golf’s two governing bodies outlawed the anchored putting stroke used by four of the last six major champions, approving a new rule that starts in 2016 and urging the PGA Tour to follow along so the 600-year-old sport is still played under one set of [...]
PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. (AP) — One night after making his red carpet debut in New York, Tiger Woods was on a golf course that hasn’t treated him very well over the years. Woods said it took him a week to get over his tie for fourth at the Masters. Next up is The Players [...]
(PhatzRadio / Golf.com) — A little more than two weeks after the Tiger Woods rules fiasco at Augusta National, the USGA has spoken. And with help from my lawyers, and a team of Talmudic scholars, I think I understand where golf’s governing body stands. In case you missed it, the release came out this morning: [...]
(PhatzRadio / AP) — Lucas Glover made an 18-foot birdie putt on his final hole Friday to take a one-stroke lead over Boo Weekley after the second round of the Zurich Classic.

(PhatzRadio / AP) — AUGUSTA, Ga. — It was a Masters of “What Ifs” for Tiger Woods. What if that wedge shot at 15 on Friday hadn’t hit the flagstick, zipped back into the pond and sparked the biggest Masters rules flap since Roberto De Vincenzo forfeited the green jacket by signing an incorrect scorecard [...]
(PhatzRadio / AP) — AUGUSTA, Ga. — The first 76 Masters gave us the storyline that no Australian had ever won even a green jacket. The 77th Masters was about three Aussies trying to win it at the same time, and then two, and finally only one, plus an old Argentine who had fallen to [...]
(PhatzRadio / Golf.com) — AUGUSTA, Ga. — Saturday was supposed to be Moving Day at the Masters Tournament. It was, but not the way we expected.
