Na needs four to find dry land at 12
Kevin Na has shot some big scores before. Add No. 12 at Augusta National to the list.
He made a 10 at there on Sunday.
By the time he reached the hole, Na was already 9-over par and trailing the leader by 17 strokes. He hit his first tee shot at the 155-yard, par-3 hole into the pond. Then he teed up another instead of hitting his next shot from a drop spot, and put that in the...
Bubba Watson and Kevin Na Do Their Best 'Tin Cup' Impersonations
Sometimes art does imitate life, and on Sunday there were a couple of golfers that tried their best to do their best Tin Cup impersonations at the Masters--Bubba Watson and Kevin Na.
If you are not familiar with the movie (go rent it; hilarious) Kevin Costner plays Roy McAvoy, better known as Tin Cup. With the green jacket on the line he has a professional meltdown on the last...

Bubba Watson and Kevin Na put up 10′s on Par 3 12th at Augusta
Early on Sunday during the Final Round of The Masters Kevin Na put up a rock solid 7-over 10 on the Par 3 12th. Na put three of his drives into the water before finally getting it together and landed one on the other side of the creek. Later in the day, Bubba Watson did the unthinkable and duplicated Na’s score.
Watson hit his drive into the Rae’s creek, then plunked a shot...

The Masters Fantasy Preview
No need for a fancy introduction here, it’s Masters week so I am going to keep it simple. The media is trying to build up the Rory vs Tiger rivalry but let’s be honest: The Masters is still all about Tiger vs. Phil. It’s one of the greatest rivalries in all of sports, and definitely in Golf. It’s one of the few rivalries where I actually take a side. I am pro-Tiger, by...

McIlroy uses Texas Open to get 'sharp' for Augusta
Rory McIlroy's last-minute, last-ditch effort to right his game in time for the Masters next week has taken a trip to a usually out-of-the-way spot on the PGA Tour. McIlroy and three other highly-ranked players in the Official World Golf Rankings start play in the Valero Texas Open on Thursday at TPC San Antonio.

AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am Fantasy Preview
Phil Mickelson dominated last week and it wasn’t even close. I guess you can teach an old dog new tricks. Whether Phil’s new driver will remain consistent is yet to be seen but he was certainly advertising his new club any chance he got last week. I’ve had great weeks with the driver only to not find a fairway the next week. Golf is a funny game. I am also not a professional...
Waste Management Phoenix Open Fantasy Preview
Before we talk about the Waste Management Phoenix Open, lets discuss what we learned from last week. Tiger is back! I know, I know, we’ve heard this about a million times over the last few years. This time I mean it. Tiger played like a pile of wet dog poop on Monday and still won the Farmers Insurance Open by four strokes! Tiger was dialed in with his irons and wedges unlike...

Karlsson in Q-School after beating yips
Sergio Garcia, Kevin Na, Robert Karlsson.
Three different personalities, three different golf swings, one common malady.
All three suffered from the full-swing yips. They reached a point in their professional careers where they couldn't start the swing. They couldn't pull the trigger. The harder they tried, the worse it got. They were stuck in the address position. No amount...
Final Q-School draws talented field
No one needs to be reminded that this is the final Q-School that will offer PGA Tour cards. That fact has been noted innumerable times. What is worth mentioning is that many players who normally would skip this 108-hole event are trying to take one more shot at Tour status, giving this year's Q-School one of the strongest fields in the event's history.

Pipeline starting to fill with Korean men FOR RELEASE SATURDAY, JULY 14, 2012, AT 12:01 A.M. EDT.
( ) By DOUG FERGUSON AP Golf Writer To chase his dream, K.J. Choi had to climb a mountain.
His arms were too long for a future in powerlifting, and baseball was just starting to take off in South Korea when he was a teenager. Without money to buy a baseball and a bat, Choi went to the nearest mountain, cut down a pine tree and fashioned his own bat. He played with a tennis ball...
