Maybe now Darren Clarke and Carl Pettersson can join Seve in rooting for the U.S. squad this year, eh?

Odds of Sergio Garcia and Vijay Singh both making 25+ foot putts? Less likely than you getting a hole in one in the next five years, that's for sure.

Padraig Harrington, current World #1 (except in the official rankings, where he's still #3), wins again.

Vijay Singh putted like a Tourette's patient with the yips, but still won!

We signed our podcast so at least we won't get disqualified. And we're not even 53!

Bet you never thought you'd hear the name Jeff Gillooly in our podcast. Okay, actually, you still won't.

Off for two weeks, we're back! And better than ever? Maybe. You'll have to listen to find out.

The downside to recording shows on Monday or Tuesday is that news that comes out on Wednesday - like Tiger's knee news - doesn't make it into the show.

It's U.S. Open week, and if there's one thing I know to be true, it's that Tiger at 80% is better than more than 80% of the contestants.

Due to a death in my network of peers as well as a small computer mishap in the rush to get this podcast done (note to self: don't save over a file you need to use later), this week's edition is brought to you "uncut" and largely unedited.

Annika announces her retirement the week her successor is the fastest to reach $12M in earnings. Interesting.

Sergio took 18 more putts than Paul Goydos through 54 holes, but was only two shots back. Hmmmm.

Join us this week as we talk with Steve Pelisek about Titleist's sizzling new AP1 and AP2 irons.

Playoff weekend, baby! Adam Scott takes down Ryan Moore, Paula Creamer gags in OT against Annika, and Darren Clarke nails a birdie on 18 to avoid his playoff and win for the first time since 2003.

Kids, do not chew tobacco. Could there be a more disgusting habit? Really?

Zzzzzzzzzzzz… oh, sorry, we've got a show to do? About what? Oh right, the Masters. I must have dozed off…

Spring is here! Spring is here! It's the week of The Masters and the Par Three tournament is even going to be televised!

Tiger ends his winning streak, but Lorena keeps hers going, winning for the first time in 2008.

1 in 150 children are born with autism, and Ben Els is sadly one of them.

Lorena wins, Ernie wins, and the PGA Tour caves to crybabies.

Tiger wins, go figure. Creamer comes back to win, good. Gay wins, who cares. Michelle Wie collapses, who didn't see that coming?

Vijay: FAIL! Phil, Annika, and Chambers Bay: FTW!

Odds of Tiger Woods winning the grand slam? Let's put it this way: Annika Sorenstam has less of a chance of getting back to the top of the World Rankings.

Our site's odds that Tiger wins the slam this year: 9 to 1. Go ahead - take us up on that bet.

In other news, John Daly is getting yet another divorce... and suing yet another group of people.

Michelle Wie didn't finish in last place! And that's what her career has come to: trying not to finish in last?! Sad.

Aquaman, now in theatres worldwide!

The FedExCup succeeds in telling us what we already knew: Tiger Woods is good at golf.

Phil vs. Tiger in Boston was the best showdown on the PGA Tour since Phil vs. Tiger at Doral. This time, Phil gets the better, even if he now trails again in the FedExCup.

Tiger's in fourth place. Is the sky falling on Finchie's grand plan? No, probably not - Tiger should gain plenty of ground this week in Boston.

Nick Flanagan earns… a month off on the PGA Tour with his battlefield promotion from the Nationwide Tour! Maybe he'll go to Disney Land.

Stephen Ames and Sergio Garcia: two of our favorites. One's full of himself and one seems to have an empty head. Can you guess which is which?

If you want Tiger to beat you, just insult him. That seems to do the trick. Stephen Ames and Rory Sabbatini now know better.

David Feherty: "If you don't have a belly, you shouldn't be allowed to use a belly putter." Congratulations to Padraig Harrington on the first of potentially many majors.

I'd give Woody Austin a few thousand dollars if I could take his place in the British Open.

One wonders if Phil's two-paddle approach to ping pong mirrors his childhood upbringing. We jest!

Lorena "O-choke-a" yanks a few drives, but Cristie Kerr sank a few putts and is a deserving champion. Michelle "Wiethdraws" again. Happy birthday, U.S. of A.

Pine Needles may be a better course for top female and average male golfers than Pinehurst #2. It certainly has more character.

Angel Cabrera had an up-and-down final round, but it ended after 69 shots and with the U.S. Open trophy.

B.J. Wie is trying to run his daughter's life, but he's getting too much "I" in there: he's going to R-U-I-N it instead it.

Zach Johnson has gotta win eventually outside of the state of Georgia. He may have a good chance this summer… in Pittsburgh.

Sergio, in response to anything lately: "It's not a big deal." Pretty soon they will be, buddy.

Woods wins his 57th just as we publish our 57th podcast. Fate? Destiny? Or is it just a ketchup conspiracy?

Phil Mickelson gets away with, well, not murder, but… then again, just who did kill the greens at Byron's tournament?

Stevie may not need to break Tiger's driver at Oakmont: he may play 3W and 5W off every tee all by himself.

We have a special guest this week, and he joins us to talk about the new Pro V1 and Pro V1x.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Oh, sorry, I dozed off during the back nine on Sunday.

Jeff is back, so I can't make any snarky comments in the subtitle here, but this week I don't need to: Phil sets himself up for his own ice cream joke.

Jeff: "Ooooh, Phil, I wuv you soooo much!" Phil: "Cue the kids running onto the green!"

When does a miss become a choke? When someone is around to see it, I suppose.

Overheard in the press tent of a recent PGA Tour event: "Ernie would play Pine Meadow if you paid him enough."

Tiger Woods will start his own golf tour the same year Johnny Miller stops talking himself up in telecasts.

Bill Murray at Pebble: fun a decade ago. Danny Gans today? Just shoot me. I'd rather watch college basketball.

Why wasn't Phil at the FBR Open? We thought he loved those weak-field birdie fests!

Tiger has finally won on the PGA Tour in 2007, ending his winless streak! Oh, wait…

Quite seriously, if you were Michelle Wie, wouldn't you rather be at the mall than shooting 78-76 and missing the cut again?

Will Tiger and Elin's baby be the sexiest and most dominating golfer ever - man or woman? I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Tiger Woods may have taken the week of the Tour Championship off, but we didn't.

Damn you, Tiger Woods! I wish I could be "fatigued" after less than 80 official rounds of golf in a year and earn $10M in the process!

The Champions Tour can bite my "I have a dream… to play professional golf one day" butt.

Ping should avoid shooting first and asking questions later. It may work for the military, but it doesn't work when you're screwing people who are trying to help the military.

If misery loves company, you'll appreciate Jeff and Erik's take on the Ryder Cup beatdown this week.

Ryder Cup news dominates this week, naturally. Who do you think will win at the K Club?

Tiger will never lose again. At least it feels that way. The Ryder Cup is right around the corner and at least Tiger and Furyk are on fire. So the US team has that going for them.

Will Tiger Woods ever lose again? Seriously? He just won his fourth in a row, beating Stewart Cink with his C game.

Tiger is now batting 0.300 in majors played as a professional despite two "slumps" during swing changes. Wow.

Will we ever go one week without talking about Michelle Wie or Tiger Woods? Highly unlikely.

I have a question for Tiger: "Have you ever mistaken your wife's twin for Elin?"

Our "moving" special is here, and it's live and uncut.

We text messaged Annika Sorenstam to say "we've produced our 31st podcast." Tiger text messaged her with something a tad more impressive.

Tiger Woods, Tom Watson, Michelle Wie, and Annika Sorenstam all fell to underdogs last week.

Congratulations to Annika Sorenstam, the 2006 U.S. Women's Open champion. Talk of this and more in this episode.

The U.S. Open is over, and even forum member Rafi sees fit to join in. That Rafi doesn't care for Phil Mickelson is a moot point, right? Nah…

It's U.S. Open week, and though our full wrap-up will come in next week's episode, we touch on a few key topics this week.

Oh Michelle, the flatstick has let you down once again. When will you put in some time on the putting green?

Furrowed brows and furrowed bunkers. What do the pros want: non-penal hazards? Or maybe they just want to say 'penal' more frequently.

Darren Clarke, Lorena Ochoa, Michelle Wie, Tiger Woods, Ian Woosnam, Luke Donald, and more.

Wie, Mickelson, Woods, Norman, Couples, and Wasylowich? Which name doesn't seem to fit?

Welcome to the 22nd playing of the Golf Talk "Toonamint." Oh wait, this isn't Augusta National, and the new chairman doesn't talk like that…

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Woods family, but the show must go on. And so it does.

The post-Masters lull is only boring if you stop paying attention to golf altogether. We've got plenty to talk about!

Phil Mickelson and Karrie Webb win the first majors of 2006 and Tiger putts like a "spaz."

TaylorMade has a new golf ball, and we've got commentary, TaylorMade CEO Mark King, Sergio Garcia, our initial on-course impressions, and a whole lot more in this special edition podcast.

Due to technical troubles, Episode 019 of the Golf Talk Podcast will be delayed one week. We will, however, be bringing you a special edition podcast within the week!

We have chokers and people who never choke, an angry listener with bleeding ears asks a question about loud drivers, and The Players Championship.

Lawsuits galore this week: Greg Norman and Sean Connery get "lawyered up" and Luke Donald gets "Luke Donalded" up in winning his first full-length PGA Tour event.

Tiger Woods, Camilo Villegas, and Natalie Gulbis in a swimsuit. What more could you want?

Geoff Ogilvy, 'Steve' Pate, Mark Hensby, Kirk Triplett? Don't worry, we've got a fair share of Tiger Woods, Michelle Wie, Greg Norman, Davis Love III, and even Bill Clinton to tide you over this week.

Tiger demolishes Ames, Paula Creamer changes the business of gal's golf, and Michelle Wie is ranked THIRD in the world? Also the media's distance bias, Daly and Olazabal on the HOF ballot, and Nikki of BBV infamy.

Tiger Woods, JB Holmes, John Daly, Michelle Wie, Jack Nicklaus, Morgan Pressel, and Annika Sorenstam. Wow, what a show!

The Super Bowl is oh-so-close and there are plenty of things to talk about as the PGA Tour is in full swing so listen in!

A week before Erik's Steelers and Jeff's Seahawks face off in the Super Bowl, the big game and some of golf's more colorful characters are in our sights in this weeks Golf Talk Podcast.

What do Michelle Wie, Bubba Watson, Paul Azinger, and David Duval have in common? They're topics in this week's podcast.

Our last single-digit episode.

It's a new year, but it's the same ol' Jeff and Erik. While Everardo suns himself in freakin' Hawaii, we tackle some of the first issues of the 2006 PGA Tour season.

The golf season may not be in full swing, but we've still got a lot to talk about: one-irons, Retief Goosen and Ben Hogan, the LPGA leaving a mark on the general public, and much, much more.

School is out! LPGA and PGA Tour Q-Schools graduate their 2006 class, and we've got some comments. Plus, 10 predictions for 2006.

Tune in this week as we bash Natalie Gulbis' dad, call Annika Sorenstam a dirty cheat,

Tune in this week as we bash Natalie Gulbis' dad, call Annika Sorenstam a dirty cheat,

Check out our end-of-year grades, our discussion on why we care about watching the PGA Tour, and much more.

The Tour Championship, Phil Mickelson's decision not to play in it, the legs on the ladies of the Big Break III (and why IV is such a snore), Jeff's hole in one, and much more!

The first Podcast talks about Jean Van de Velde's plans to play the Women's British Open, compares Tiger's year to Annika's year, and much, much more. Tune in!
