\"Hittin'Rookies are doing very well on the nascent 2015-2016 PGA TOUR season. Meanwhile the LPGA, European Tour, and Champions Tours are approaching their finales for 2015.<\/p>\n

Let’s hit the links.
\n
\nHole #1: Ko #1 Again<\/strong>
\nLydia Ko got the 10th win of her young career this week, taking the LPGA Taiwan Championship by nine shots and getting the world #1 ranking back. [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole #2: Show those Pearly Whites<\/strong>
\nSmylie Kaufman had reason to do just that after firing a final round 61 Sunday to win the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open by a stroke over a six pack of players. [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole #3: Rose Blossoms in Hong Kong<\/strong>
\nJustin Rose won his eighth career victory on the European Tour by taking the Hong Kong Open by a stroke over Lucas Bjerregaard. [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole #4: No Golf for You<\/strong>
\nChina has again banned golf for party members. [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole #5: Little and Long<\/strong>
\nWho says small guys can’t hit it far? [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole #6: Tiger-less for 2016?<\/strong>
\nWith a “long and tedious” rehab from a second back surgery still ahead of him, it could be a long time until we see Tiger Woods in competition again. [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole #7: Hitting Two<\/strong>
\nJacques Kruyswijk was just trying to extricate himself from a tricky lie on the Sunshine Tour and wound up adding injury to insult. [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole #8: I’d Like 25,000 Golf Balls, Please<\/strong>
\nJordan Spieth is now immortalized with a fitting mosaic. [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole #9: iPhone vs. Golf Ball<\/strong>
\nI guess this falls into the because we can category. [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
