Greenberg impressed with Indianapolis
Posted Tuesday, February 7, at 9:27 AM "I have got to admit that when I heard the Super Bowl was going to be played in Indianapolis, I thought what is that all about," said Mike Greenberg, of "Mike and Mike in the Morning" ESPN's popular morning radio show. "I would describe the week in Indy as magnificent and sensational."...
These Elves Are Working Every Week As we close in on the most celebrated holiday of the season, I want to tell you a story about two of Santa's elves who spend nearly every week of the year doing something for needy kids and their families. Golf annually generates over $3.5 billion for charities across the United States. This is a story about two women who have committed a big part of their lives helping other people through golf...
Golf in the White House Politics never ceases to amaze me. Last week Mitt Romney, Republican challenger for the office of President of the United States, launched a new fundraising site entitled "Fore More Years." He encourages voters to donate $18- or more- "to send President Obama on a permanent golfing vacation."...
The Harbaugh Bowl/Cam Cameron: One Shot at a Time On Thanksgiving Night the most publicized NFL regular season game of 2011 took place at M&T Stadium in Baltimore. The battle between the San Francisco 49ers and the host Ravens featured the first game in NFL history where two brothers were the opposing head coaches. Jim and John Harbaugh made league history in the game that saw Baltimore beat San Francisco 16-6...
Overcoming odds and being recognized for great accomplishments The PGA Grand Slam of golf was held this past week in beautiful Bermuda. This is the toughest tournament in the world to qualify for, though there is only one entry requirement. Win one of golf's major championships and you are in. Sounds simple enough, right? If only...
Patriot Golf Day We are just days away from the kickoff of Patriot Golf Day 2011. Over 4,000 golf courses nationwide are expected to help provide healing and hope to those families who have been affected by the conflict in Iraq and Afghanistan. Proceeds from Patriot Golf Day, September 2-5, will again provide scholarships and educational opportunities for families who have paid the highest sacrifice for our country...
One Shot at a Time- August 22, 2011 ... The First Tee Issue In the post mortem surrounding the 2011 PGA Championship at the Atlanta Athletic Club, I have received phone calls and inquiries from around the country concerning the confusion around the announcement of the final group during Sunday's play. I would like to use this forum to explain exactly what television viewers saw (and didn't see)...
One Shot at a Time: PGA Championship Wrap It's been a couple of days since Keegan Bradley defeated Jason Dufner in a playoff to win the 2011 PGA Championship at the Atlanta Athletic Club. In doing so, Bradley became only the third player in the history of golf to win a major championship in his first attempt. He also joined four other PGA champions whose fathers were PGA club professionals- Jack Burke Jr., Dave Marr, Davis Love III and Rich Beem...
One Shot at a Time: PGA Championship- August 13 As the 2011 PGA Championship unfolds there are several compelling subplots lurking. Will Steve Stricker win that elusive major championship? Can Davis Love III wind back the hands of time and win his second PGA Championship? Is the combination of Adam Scott and Steve Williams going to be golf's new dominate player/caddie combo? What is wrong with Tiger Woods? How serious is the wrist injury that Rory McIlroy suffered? Can Scott Verplank prevail? Will Phil make a charge?...
One Shot at a Time- Friday, Aug. 12 This is without question the busiest PGA week of my year. The PGA Championship is our premier event and it is truly a celebration of golf for our 27,000 PGA members and apprentices. There are a couple of events that are PGA Championship week traditions and I would like to share those with you...
One Shot at a Time- Thursday, August 11, 2011 The dominant theme here at the 93rd PGA Championship has been the pristine course conditions at the Atlanta Athletic Club. The course was closed down for two weeks prior to the start of the event. In the final three weeks that AAC members were allowed to play, they were issued small mats that they placed underneath their golf ball so as to avoid taking divots in the fairways and on the tees. ...
PGA CHAMPIONSHIP PREVIEW: MONDAY, AUG: 8, 2011 Today is the start of PGA Championship week, golf's final major of the 2011 season. I am in Atlanta looking forward to my busiest PGA week of the year. I arrived Sunday afternoon and set up camp at the Atlanta Athletic Club (AAC) and the Grand Hyatt Atlanta Buckhead. ...
Open Championship 2011- Day 7 When I come to the United Kingdom for a golf related event, the weather is always a factor that I relish. You come to expect the unexpected in this part of the world and this weekend did not disappoint. The forecast in England or Scotland will change a couple times a day making it nearly impossible to figure out a proper dress assignment...
Open Championship 2011- Day 6 I was up early because I wanted to walk all 18 holes at Royal St. George's and in doing so follow the threesome of Steve Stricker, Lee Westwood and Charl Schwartzel, which teed off at 9:10 a.m. My day always starts in the hotel restaurant with a nice cup of coffee, English breakfast and a newspaper...
I think these Brits are still upset about that Tea Party! Open Championship 2011- Day 5 I sat in solitary quiet just after 6:30 a.m. Thursday morning in the dining room of the Abode Hotel here in Canterbury. The only other person in the room was Camillo Villegas, PGA Tour player from Argentina. A few miles away, the first tee shots were being hit at Royal St. George's Golf Club in Sandwich...
Open Championship 2011- Day 4 Our guys got up early yesterday and met for breakfast at 6:30 a.m. Joining us in the hotel dining room were three of the usual suspects- Camilo Villegas, Matt Kuchar and Paul Casey. Interestingly, all three had early practice round times and they had their own separate transportation...
Open Championship 2011- Day 3 Players who make the field in the Open Championship, earn so by their world ranking, last year's finish in this tournament, various other exemptions- but most, play their way in the British Open through local or national qualifiers at various courses around the United Kingdom. It is a similar procedure as the USGA uses for the United States Open...
Open Championship 2011- Day 2 Royal St. George's is located in Sandwich, England about two hours southeast of London. I am staying in the famous village of Canterbury, which is about 15 miles from Sandwich. The Cliffs of Dover, located on the English Channel, are about 20 minutes from where I am. This was a significant area in the annals of World War II...
OPEN CHAMPIONSHIP 2011- MONDAY It's a little ironic, I guess. I am looking out my window at the New York City skyline on Delta Flight #1 from JFK to London's Heathrow. My seat is 1B and I am on my way to experiencing the number one week of my golf year. This is Open Championship week- the British Open for all you Yanks...
One Shot at a Time: Joe Skovron, PGA Tour Caddy It was during one of those extended rain delays at the Ryder Cup in Wales last fall when I shared a ride to the clubhouse with Joe Skovron. He was there in the official USA party as Rickie Fowler's caddy. We, as PGA Officers, shared the same locker bay in the team room with the caddies. I had noticed this polite, young kid from Southern California and was impressed with him from the beginning...
