Tiger is back! Tiger is back! Hey Sand Trappers, in case you haven't heard yet, Tiger Woods is again playing golf professionally. Jeez, next to the inauguration this news has to be the biggest story of the year. We do love our Tiger Woods, and here at Hittin' the Links I am no different. I mean I am as happy as anyone to see Eldrick again, but there are other things going on in the golf world.
Speaking of other things, HTL is again on the job bringing you the best golf stories from around the world. In this volume, we first get Tiger's return out of our systems, then we turn our attention to an amateur champion at the Johnnie Walker Classic, and check out some golf fashion. Also, we see how Mickelson did at Riviera, look into Freddy's sad week, and do a recap of the rest of the events around golf. Read on!
Sorry for the TST Rule Quiz hiatus, Sand Trappers, but I am back and ready to test your rules knowledge. I mean you can never know the rules too well, right?
Rule 12-2 in the 2008 USGA Rules of Golf states "The responsibility for playing the proper ball rests with the player. Each player should put an identification mark on his ball." Anyone who plays competitive golf knows the importance of being able to identify your ball. In fact, the people at Sanford, the makers of the Sharpie Marker, have made more than a little money from the golf industry by this very fact.
