After turning pro and signing two endorsement contracts, Michelle Wie has encountered potential jealously towards the amount of money she is making.

It happened in the deceptively quiet town of Medina, OH. A 45 year-old man named Samuel Dottore absconded with a frozen roast (a roast?) and made his attempted get away in…. that’s right…. a golf cart. Not just any golf cart, either. He stole it too!

According to Sally Davis, manager of the Metro golf course, many of the city’s golfers play […]

If you’re fairly new to golf, you’ve probably been trying to find a good grip (the position you place your hands on the club) that feels comfortable and produces straight shots.

Three tournaments on the PGA Tour have had Tuesday Pro-Ams: The Tour Championship, Jack Nicklaus’s Memorial, and Arnold Palmer’s Bay Hill Invitational. Starting in 2006, they will all change to the traditional Wednesday Pro-Am schedule that all other tournaments use.
