Read a post from Mike at Life in the Rough called “My Best Learning Experience Yet” that inspired me to play in my first competitive tournament in over 7 years. It was a Mens Open play at Coyote Creek just west of Sundre, Alberta, Canada.
Earlier today Phil Michelson announced through his management company that his wife Amy has been diagnosed with breast cancer. Phil said he will suspend his playing schedule indefinitely. Phil Michelson has two wins to his credit so far this year at the Northern Trust Open and the CA Championships at Doral. Having been through a breast cancer scare with my wife I wish the best for Amy and Phil.
With Jack Frost visiting us a few times in the last couple of weeks I began to look at a post I published last year where I published my golfing goals for 2008. I have never really set any goals for golf season before let alone publish them. So it was interesting to see the goals I achieved and what I did not achieve.
Most of us who golf know how important putting is to scoring well. Putting helps convert good approach shots into birdies or pars. Putting can also save us by preserving pars or save us from making a large number. But there are two key components golfer need to putt well. It is not a specific fundamental like stance or grip. It is something more basic than that.
Team USA wins the Ryder Cup. Can you putt from a bunker? And the Tour Championship.
How did Paul Azinger manage his underdogs to beat the favored Europeans in the 2008 Ryder Cup.
I did not give Team USA much of a hope at winning this year’s Ryder Cup. Team USA did prove me wrong. What really surprised me were the players that were clutch under pressure. And it was not the players you would have expected. It was also a change seeing Team USA play as a team rather than 8 individuals paired together in the foursomes and fourball matches.
The Ryder Cup has started and the Team US, won the Friday morning foursomes. The first Team USA has won the morning matches since 1991. To keep up with the Ryder Cup theme check out these sites.

With one event to go Vijay Singh will win the 2008 FedEx Cup. After the Deutsche Bank Championship Vijay had collected 120,500 FedEx Cup Playoff points. Since he is playing the BMW Championship the worst point total Vijay will finish with is 122,602, this is assuming a last place finish at The BMW Championship (2102 points) and not playing in The Tour Championship. If Vijay plays the Tour Championship and does withdraw or get disqualified he will gain at least 2000 points for a last place finish.
