Volume Ninety

Well, my brackets destroyed and my favorite team was sent packing on Sunday but that was nothing compared to Tiger Woods' meltdown in the final round at Arnie's party.

 

 

This week we have a recap of the Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by MasterCard, the true cost of sportsmanship, and a little advice for tournament directors looking to get Tiger Woods to play their event.

 

 

Hole 1: Victorious Vijay

Congratulations to the hardest working man in golf as Vijay Singh became the first two-time winner in 2007, winning at Bay Hill. Could we be seeing a repeat of Vijay's nine-victory 2004 season? [Link]

 

 

Hole 2: Expensive Lesson

Boo Weekley lost out on about $50 grand and some additional FedEx points by showing some sportsmanship. Sometimes the rules of golf are a bit harsh. [Link]

 

 

Hole 3: Hired Gun

I don't think Gary Van Sickle is going to be on Tiger's Christmas card list after this article. Probably not Tim Finchem's either. [Link]

 

 

Hole 4: The Numbers Game

What is par? When you're the host, it can be whatever you want it to be. [Link]

 

 

Hole 5: The Little Company that Could

Guess which company's hybrids were #1 on the combined men's tour (PGA, Champions and Nationwide) according the Darell Survey for 2006.[Link]

 

 

Hole 6: Architect's Dream

You still have time to design your dream golf hole with a chance to win $3000. [Link]

 

 

Hole 7: Battle for a Cure

Arnie's Army Battles Prostate Cancer works with the Prostate Cancer Foundation to help find a cure for this disease. Take the first step and see your doctor to get tested. Early detection saves lives. [Link]

 

 

Hole 8: The Queen of Guadalajara

Lorena Ochoa is not only creating history on the course but is also working on building a golf history in Mexico. [Link]

 

 

Hole 9: Higher Power

Brad Zwetschke lost to a kid named Tiger Woods in the 1991 U.S. Junior Amateur. Since then, he's taken a quite different career path. [Link]
