Football season is officially over until next fall (or until training camps start in, what, April? Oh, and the draft… and college recruiting, and…) and now we can put our full attention to the world of golf.<\/p>\n

This week we have a recap of the FBR Open, Sharon Stone’s golf game, and proof that Tiger is human after all.
\n
\nHole 1: He’s a Bad Man<\/strong>
\nAaron Baddeley shoots a 64 in the final round to win his second career PGA Tour victory. Look up choke in the dictionary and see a picture of Jeff Quinney. [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole 2: TPC For Me<\/strong>
\nThe FBR Open plays at the TPC Scottsdale which you can play too. Green fees do not include drunk college students “cheering” you on on #16..[Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole 3: Thunderbirds<\/strong>
\nThe Thunderbirds have worked with the FBR Open for 71 years in providing charitable assistance to numerous organizations and individuals in the Phoenix area. In 2006, they and FBR helped raise $6.83 million dollars for charity.[Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole 4: Animal House<\/strong>
\nJohn Reger at NBC Sports blogged from the 16th hole at the FBR Open. [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole 5: Tiger Who?<\/strong>
\nCongratulations to Henrik Stenson, who held off Ernie Els and Tiger Woods to win the Dubai Desert Classic. Don’t feel too bad for Tiger who was paid $3 million just to show up.[Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole 6: Less is More<\/strong>
\nThe U.S. Women’s Open will move from an 18-hole playoff to a three-hole playoff. [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole 7: Tetrahedron <\/strong>
\nGet out your compasses and protractors and read about the new geometric drivers. [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole 8: Basic Instinct<\/strong>
\nSharon Stone discusses playing on her high school boy’s team, women’s golf fashion, and not lying about her age. [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole 9: Driver’s Seat<\/strong>
\nWalter Driver was re-elected to a second term as USGA president. Hopefully his first order of business will be to speed up the five-hour round. [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
