\"Hittin'Hello golf fans and welcome to Hittin’ the Links<\/em>. Well Tiger continues to make headlines. As much as I don’t really care for Steve Williams, I think Tiger has shot himself in the foot on this one. Any guy who sticks with you through all the stuff Stevie has should never be fired. For one thing, he has to know some good stories!<\/p>\n

In this newest edition of HtL<\/em> we begin with a look at the famous break-up, then look at what should happen when you play too slow, and check out what Tiger’s mistress is up too. Also, we peruse Rory McIlroy’s new female friend, investigate the American major championship drought, and do a wrap-up of the week’s events. Read on!
