Golf legend Jack Nicklaus spoke to the Los [...]

Vijay Singh Out Two Months With Forearm Injury

Tue, 30 Sep 2008 16:39:45 -0500

Vijay Singh, fresh off his FedEx Cup win, will be out two months with tendinitis in his forearm, an injury that will keep him out of two big Asian Tour tournaments. The 45-year-old won two of the four playoff tournaments this year, good enough to capture the $10 million prize that comes with the FedEx Cup, and now appears to have done so with an injury. I guess that all the rage in golf these days. Sure, winning tournaments is hard enough, but can you win one with an injury?

The PGA Is Desperately Trying To Get People Interested In The Fed Ex Cup

Wed, 03 Sep 2008 14:17:53 -0500

I like to think that I watch more Golf than an average male fan my age. I don't miss a major and I even watch parts of tournaments that Tiger Woods isn't involved in. With that said, I still have zero idea how the Fed Ex Playoffs work for the PGA and I'm willing to bet that most diehards don't either. I know it's a four event playoff, and that somehow 144 people qualify somehow, but other than that I'm at a loss.

It's more confusing than the BCS at this point, and the PGA seems to know that, which is why they decided to come up with a "celebrity" ad campaign to get people interested. The big names include Dana Torres, Michael Jordan, John Elway, Joe Sakic, Daryl Strawberry and my two favorites.... Joe Buck and Emmitt Smith!

YBB has some more vids, but as they point out....the Championship has already been locked up by Vijay Singh, so they're all kind of for naught. I have to admit though that the FedEx Trophy is pretty badass looking, but until you get Natalie Gulbis on YouTube explaining the rules to me....I'm probably not going to pay attention.
