What had been a celebration of European golf at an awards dinner south of London shifted suddenly to a racially sensitive moment involving Woods, the No. 1 golfer in the worl...

(AP) — Tiger Woods made birdie on every par 5 for the first time since 2006 and broke 70 in the opening round for the first time ever in The Players Championship. Rory McIlroy didn't hit driver on the front nine and broke par for the first time on the TPC Sawgrass. Ryan Palmer made only one cut in seven tries — the other year, he f...

(AP) — Tiger Woods was nine shots out of the lead, not the best position at The Players Championship, especially since he had not even started his round. Perhaps the bigger surprise was the guy who posted the record-tying round Thursday. Roberto Castro had only played the TPC Sawgrass in a practice round. He made a debut he won't s...

(AP) — One spectator wore fake deer antlers. Another yelled about eating venison. And a group of guys shouted, "Stay off the spray, Vijay." But for the most part, there was little public reaction to Vijay Singh's lawsuit filed against the PGA Tour during the opening round of The Players Championship on Thursday. Hecklers were few a...

(AP) — Roberto Castro made a debut he won't soon forget in The Players Championship, opening with a 9-under 63 Thursday to tie the course record at the TPC Sawgrass and build a three-shot lead over Rory McIlroy and other early starters. Facing the infamous island-green on No. 17 for the first time in competition, Castro left a 9-ir...

(AP) — Vijay Singh sued the PGA Tour on Wednesday for exposing him to "public humiliation and ridicule" during a 12-week investigation into his use of deer antler spray that ended last week when the tour dropped its case against him. The lawsuit was a surprise, and so was the timing — the day before The Players Championship, the fl...

(AP) — Rory McIlroy enters the next phase of his season knowing that his fortunes can change without notice. That's what happened last year. McIlroy had gone five months without winning, long enough to lose his No. 1 ranking. He also went through a slump so severe that he missed the cut in four out of five tournaments, including his title ...

(AP) — Quail Hollow has been a symbol of perfection for 10 years since it returned to the PGA Tour lineup, a beautifully manicured golf course where the six major champions who have won ranged from Tiger Woods to Rory McIlroy. It is less than perfect this year. Some have even compared the greens to a rundown municipal course. One thing tha...

(AP) — One of the most popular labels in golf is the best player to have never won a major, which can be looked at two ways. The bad news is that it means a player has never won a major. The good news is that he's at least thought highly enough to be considered. The best player at Augusta National to have never won the Masters? That stings a ...

(AP) — Justin Rose no longer has the lead all to himself at Bay Hill, though he remained four shots clear of defending champion Tiger Woods. He's just not sure how. Rose played alongside the seven-time Bay Hill winner and if not for seeing scores on a card, he had reason to believe Woods would have been right up there with the leaders, if no...

(AP) — Bill Haas wanted to make up for his bad finish in the opening round at Bay Hill. He did that and more Friday. Haas kept bogeys off his card for a 6-under 66, taking a one-shot lead among the early starters in the Arnold Palmer Invitational. Haas not only hit 15 greens in regulation, he didn't have a putt for par longer than 4 feet. ...

(AP) — Adam Scott had a breakthrough with his short game this winter, and it's so good now that he hardly even has to use it. Scott had a putt for birdie on 16 holes in a second round that was without a bogey and without much stress. He wound up with a 5-under 66 that left him one shot behind 31-year-old rookie Shawn Stefani. ...

(AP) — Shawn Stefani likes to talk about being patient on the golf course, and he showed that in the opening round of the Tampa Bay Championship. His longest putt for par was just inside 5 feet on his final hole for a 6-under 65 and a two-shot lead. He also was patient getting to this position. Stefani, who grew up in the Houston area, s...

(AP) — Defending champion Luke Donald was angry about three bogeys over the last four holes that ruined a great round Thursday in the Tampa Bay Championship. Considering the conditions, it still wasn't bad. With surprisingly cold conditions on a typically tough course at Innisbrook, only 11 of 78 players managed to break par among those ...

(AP) — Jim Furyk goes into the Tampa Bay Championship at No. 5 in driving accuracy on the PGA Tour and No. 146 in distance off the tee. That's not unusual. He has taken the short and narrow to great lengths on tour. Only five active players — Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Vijay Singh, Davis Love III and Ernie Els — have more than his 16 c...

(AP) — That red shirt is starting to look ruthless on Sunday again. One year after Tiger Woods hobbled off the Blue Monster, he picked up the pace in his march to the Masters. Woods delivered two quick birdies to take the drama out of Doral, and two late bogeys only made his victory in the Cadillac Championship seem closer than it really was. ...

(AP) — These should be happy times for golf. Tiger Woods won for the 75th time on the PGA Tour and set a record with his eighth win at Torrey Pines.
