Tiger Woods, 18th hole, The Masters. It didn’t matter that he was 13-over par and his chances at winning had long expired. It didn’t matter that Tiger wasn’t expected to win.

5 magical moments for Tiger at the Masters
It’s been 25 years since Tiger Woods walked onto Augusta National and shocked the world with a record-breaking Masters win at the age of 21.

Try this on for size: Pro golfer Aaron Rodgers
Bryson DeChambeau looked like he had a lot of fun letting Aaron Rodgers win “The Match” against Tom Brady and Phil Mickelson for him yesterday. While DeChambeau’s ball spent more time in the trees than on the fairway, Rodgers looked such as a professional golfer that might have a future on the PGA Tour, if […]
Bryson DeShambles — what a meltdown
There was a point during the final round of the U.S. Open yesterday when Bryson DeChambeau had a one-stroke lead with only 9 holes to play. He, umm… did not finish with a victory. In fact, he didn’t finish in the top five, or the top 10. Or anywhere close to that. DeChambeau finished in […]
