Golf Talk [Episode 032]

I have a question for Tiger: “Have you ever mistaken your wife’s twin for Elin?”

PodcastTiger Woods becomes the youngest player ever to amass 50 wins on the PGA Tour, beating Jack Nicklaus by nearly three years. Also this week, Michelle Wie’s “mossy” penalty, Wie’s fall in the world rankings, the Ryder Cup, Colin Montgomerie’s “Money Hole,” and the oh-so-dumb questions reporters ask Tiger.

Golf Talk [Episode 031]

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

Also this week, Natalie Gulbis, Corey Pavin, Erin Hills, Carolyn Bivens, and Geoff Ogivly at the PGA Championship. Tune in to this episode of Golf Talk for more.

Golf Talk [Episode 028]

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…

PodcastPhil Mickelson, Colin Montgomerie, Jim Furyk, Padraig Harrington, and countless others collapse under the weight of the U.S. Open, and only Aussie Geoff Ogilvy manages to avoid a crash and burn to win the 106th at Winged Foot. This week, we talk about the rough, the greens, Phil’s fateful 18th hole, and a whole lot more. Tune in to this episode of Golf Talk for more.

Golf Talk [Episode 027]

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.

PodcastRonald McDonald was in the house, but Se Ri Pak walked away with her first major in quite awhile, and in a playoff over Karrie Webb no less. Plus, a bunch of U.S. Open chatter, including Tiger missing the cut, Chris Berman doing a horrible job announcing, Johnny Miller, Phil Mickelson, Merion, Herbert Warren Wind, Oakmont and furrowed bunkers, Tadd Fujikawa, and a whole lot more.

Golf Talk [Episode 026]

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

PodcastMichelle Wie’s historic bid to qualify for the U.S. Open failed due to a faulty flatstick. We have in-depth coverage and opinion on Michelle’s latest media grab (and great play), as well as talk of Tiger and Phil, Carolyn Bivens, the Ryder Cup’s fresher face, Carl Pettersson the Swedish Hick, and a whole lot more in this week’s episode of Golf Talk.

Golf Talk [Episode 025]

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

PodcastTom Pernice gets away with cheating (maybe) and Michelle Wie may need to cheat to qualify for the U.S. Open (maybe). But the big news this week is the furrowed bunkers at The Memorial, so we talk about them. Just what has Jack Nicklaus been smoking, and where can we get some? Also, Royal Precision closes down, Clinton fails to add properly, Daly’s book sells well, and Meena Lee fails to send an email, costing her a spot at the U.S. Women’s Open. This and a whole lot more in this week’s episode of Golf Talk.
