An Ideal Golf Course. The processes behind designing and building a golf course by Nuzzo Course Design. Friday, September 6, 2013. Some friends at Wolf Point - FORE! Not too long ago a few friends came down to play Wolf Point with Don. It reminds me a bit of this Tiger picture. From a few years ago. Good try Sam! Another friend also shared many, many pictures of his visit on Golf Club Atlas. If you would like to see a ton of pictures from our round click here. Posted by Mike Nuzzo. Chris Tritabaugh - Haz...

Friday, August 29, 2008. Volatility = New Chances to Skip Events? That's what Phil Mickelson said and that's why he LOVES the new system. Phil Mickelson dropped a bomb Thursday at the Deutsche Bank Championship that probably had a few officers at tour headquarters reaching for aspirin, if not hankies. Positioning ourselves for the FedEx Cup is really not important because the last‑place guy, if he wins, vaults into first," he said. "So that could be kind of cool, too.". Hahaha. This is awesome.

Friday, August 29, 2008. Some Lazy Reporting on the LPGA Ruling. Beth Ann Baldry really mailed this one in for Golfweek on the reactions of several people to the LPGA English requirement. Basically, it's the standard lazy piece of talking to a couple of different sides of an argument and forming no conclusions. Read it if you want. But here's the part that interested me. 8220;It’s as politically incorrect as it can get.”. But the reaction for this really hasn't been all negative. From what I have see...

Tuesday, August 26, 2008. Demading English on the LPGA Tour. I blogged as neutrally as possible at Waggle Room about the story. Out of last week's meeting of South Korean players at the LPGA Tour Safeway Classic in which Commissioner Carolyn Bivens revealed that the Tour would demand English proficiency for players having been on Tour for two years or more. Does it wreak of hypocrisy? Americans tend to root for people who are somewhat like us, or at least willing to immerse themselves into our culture...

Monday, August 25, 2008. You Know Your Place on the Sports Spectrum. When Notre Dame football - irrelevant for almost 10 years now - sideswipes your television coverage on a network. And that's happening to the Tour and BMW Championships in the next few weeks, which air on NBC. Jon Show has more in Sports Business Journal. The opponent in question? Cupcake State bumps golf? And that is even despite golf nearly doubling Notre Dame's ratings last season. That school has some pull. GNN SHOWS THIS WEEK.

Wednesday, August 27, 2008. LPGA/English Requirement, Take 2. Yesterday, my initial gut reaction on this LPGA English requirement business is that it was necessary, but hypocritical. (Some folks who read it definitely missed the point. Some focused on the English-being-biz-language part, which was a mistake.). I've had some more time to think about it since I've been traveling on the road over the past day and here's my final conclusion. This is particularly true of the LPGA Tour, whose growth in Asia tr...

Tuesday, September 2, 2008. Bivens and Sirak Interview, And More. Carolyn Bivens is on the bandwagon for the Olympics crowd, right? And, of course, the Olympics has two official languages - English and French (dead language). For as much as Bivens claims that Eun-Hee Ji's English-less acceptance speech in Rochester was what set into motion this plan, I am much more likely to believe that Bivens drew upon her experience with the Olympics to bring the policy forward at this time. I would wager, though, tha...

Wednesday, September 3, 2008. Chemistry Matters in the Ryder Cup. How many times have we talked about the winning formula for the Europeans in the Ryder Cup and how it involves a combination of talent AND the fact that the players actually like each other and bond like a team needs to do? From Barker Davis at the Washington Times. Because the 26-year-old has no social skills. His boorish behavior and poor personal hygiene are running jokes on the PGA Tour. Given that Azinger was supposed to be a ...Woody...
