FARMINGDALE, N.Y. - The vibe is different from the time he walks into the room. News conferences with Tiger Woods through the years, and particularly at major championships, were stubborn contests of will. How many ways could reporters ask a similar question, only to get the same terse, rote answer? It was as if Woods could write volumes of insight into golf and himself, but chose to make a ...

Stricker closes with a 4-under 68 in the weather-delayed tournament in Birmingham, Ala.

The setting is familiar, and so is the man who's favored to win one of golf's biggest tournaments. But the date? Well, it just feels a little weird. Yes, the PGA Championship is already here. The best golfers in the world will tee it up Thursday through Sunday with a major on the line at Bethpage State Park's Black Course on Long Island in New York. For about the last half-century, the PGA ...

The Madison resident birdied the final hole for a 2-under 70 and held a 2-shot lead after three rounds at the season's first major.

Stricker completed a 4-under 68 in the delayed first round and shot a season-best 64 in the second Friday to take a two-stroke lead in the Regions Tradition, the first of five PGA Tour Champions majors, in Birmingham, Alabama.

FRISCO, Texas - Sitting in a ballroom at the Omni Frisco Hotel, just steps away from the Dallas Cowboys' billion-dollar practice facility known as The Star, golfing great Lee Trevino spoke of the PGA of America moving its headquarters to Frisco. Trevino, the six-time major champion and North Texas native, has no question that the PGA will match what Jerry Jones and the Cowboys brought to the ...

The USGA on Tuesday announced that it has selected Erin Hills, which hosted the 2017 U.S. Open, to host two more championships: the 2025 U.S. Women's Open and the 2022 U.S. Mid-Amateur.

AUGUSTA, Ga. - Tiger Woods faced this question: Should Jack Nicklaus be worried about his record 18 majors? "Well, I don't know if he's worried or not," Woods replied, later adding: "I'm just enjoying 15." Perhaps he'd also enjoy these 15 takeaways from one of the most memorable Masters in history: 1. This place always delivers. Sunday drama at the Masters is a given. The risk-reward holes on ...

It was only two years ago at Augusta National that Woods needed a nerve block just to hobble upstairs to the Champions Dinner, unsure he would ever play another round of golf. 

CBS was a huge beneficiary of Woods' win. They were on the air for 10 hours on Sunday because the final round was moved up due to possible inclement weather. 

The comeback is complete. Tiger Woods has his fifth Masters title.

It will be a Sunday unlike any other at the Masters — an early start because of storms forecast for Sunday afternoon, with threesomes going off the first and 10th tees.

Major champions Francesco Molinari, Jason Day, Brooks Koepka, Adam Scott and Louis Oosthuizen created the first five-way tie for the lead going into the weekend at the Masters, with Tiger Woods among those just a shot behind.

Brooks Koepka and Bryson DeChambeau wound up in a share of the lead after the opening round of the Masters Thursday at 6-under 66.

The confidence seemed back, even if Tiger Woods didn't quite get his history right after a 2-under 70 left him four shots off the lead after the first round.

The course is in excellent shape, but more rain last week and on Tuesday has left it so soft that even the humming of sub-air systems won't be able to make this firm and fast, especially with scattered showers in the forecast.
