Highland Park Country Club was in need of a makeover

McNair jumped on a bulldozer and, with the help of a small crew, literally transformed the municipal layout into a par-70, 6,048-yard layout from the championship tees. He made the small greens fun and challenging with plenty of contours. He improved the aesthetics with new stonework, fencing and lush fairways. He changed the name to Aiken Golf Club, a nod to the past and a promise for the future.

Wealthy Northerners came to Aiken Titleist 910 D2 Driver for its mild winter climate, and they built “cottages” – mansions, really – to house their families and servants. They also brought with them a love of equestrian sports and golf.

“When we received state recognition from South Carolina that was incredible,” McNair said. “But to be recognized in a national golf magazine such as Golfweek, it exceeds any expectations we ever had. Our niche will always be as a great small venue for a small town, providing the best golf that we can provide.”

John R. Inglis, the club’s pro from 1915-1939, designed the seven-hole loop – now Nos. 8 through 14 – and ran the club in its formative years. By the late 1930s the Depression had forced the hotel to close, and the city of Aiken took ownership and renamed the course Aiken Golf Club.

The elder McNair had long been familiar with the course; in 1947, he shot a course-record 58 that still stands. A stalwart on the Duke University golf team that featured future Masters winner Art Wall Jr. and veteran pro Mike Souchak, McNair ran the club until the mid-1980s when he turned over the reins to his son.

Competitors and members were invited to a 100th birthday party, complete with cake, and McNair donned his Mizuno MP-69 Irons knickers, white shirt, tie and Hogan-style cap. Later, he was surprised with a special presentation from golf shop manager Lorraine Morgan and her husband, Bill.

“The whole idea about that was it’s not just about John Inglis and Donald Ross anymore,” Lorraine Morgan said. “It’s about him.”

McNair isn’t content to rest on his laurels. A 9-hole putting course is named for his father. A new locker room area for members has been a welcome addition.

“We found a golf course that, despite being about 100 yards per hole shorter than the home of the Masters, still tested, teased and entertained us,” Bradley S. Klein wrote.

“It was an easy transition for me to go from growing up on this golf course, and I had basically redesigned it in my head discount golf clubs a hundred times before I ever actually got on a bulldozer,” he said. “It was something that I felt like we should have done. It was something that we owed the city of Aiken, and it was something we owed this golf course to bring her back to the glory she had in the 1920s.”

Uncertain protection of Granville Golf Course

In an interview this past week, Village Manager Steve Stilwell reinforced Hartfield's position. Asked if the village could change the current zoning on the golf course -- Planned Unit District -- to Open Space District, he said the council had that power.

But Stilwell said choosing that option Taylormade Burner 2.0 irons carries risks. He said zoning is a system that groups properties with similar attributes. Rezoning the parcel to a category that severely limits development, in anticipation of possible development, could trigger complaints from property owners and/or a legal challenge.

But the council members raised questions about whether there might be other ways of protecting it -- such as through the village's zoning code -- through its control of access to water and sewer lines, or through a deed restriction.

Village Planning Director Alison Terry said in an email she found no evidence that any part of the golf course was protected as open space when the Bryn Du subdivision, which is located directly east of it, was created. She said in some PUD development plan approvals "there is a requirement that there be a certain amount of permanent open space which then offsets the smaller lot sizes that are permitted in this type of zoning classification."

Licking County Recorder Bryan Long said that there could be recorded documents restricting development of the golf course, which opened in 1925. But he said about 400 land records exist regarding the golf course and researching the issue would require an inordinate amount of time.

Hartfield said, "I don't think anyone ever envisioned housing there. Open space probably aligns with what the community wants."

Mason said the township is willing to callaway razr x irons explore any viable alternatives to purchase of development rights, but that "no one has identified alternatives that appear to be viable."

One option for protecting the property, said Jim Murr, a commercial real estate appraiser who works for Columbus-based Carey Realty Partners, is for the owners to donate a conservation easement permanently restricting development of the parcel, to a government entity or a conservation group.

She said that some or all of the issues the council raised concerning alternative means of protecting the golf course would be addressed through the scoring system the township uses for that evaluation.

The sale of development rights, he said, "might make it possible for the owners to sell at reduced rate to new owners who have intentions of managing it as a golf course."

The proposed new Granville Comprehensive Plan's future land-use map places the golf course in the open space category.

Frank Murphy, former president of The Murphy Group, which developed the Erinwood housing and office subdivision in the 1990s, said a discount golf clubs developer would find the property highly attractive for residential development.

In March, the partnership that owns the golf course, who say they are getting older and are looking ahead to when they no longer can be involved in it, asked the township trustees to consider buying development rights to it. By buying development rights -- the cost of which is the difference between the value of the land developed and undeveloped -- the township would ensure the property remains undeveloped forever.

residents want to keep the Miniature golf course open

Edwin Swift IV, chief operating officer of Historic Tours of America Inc., said he would be interested in submitting a competitive bid.

“Ripley’s says it will make all the ADA changes,” Burchfield said. “It will maintain the entire course. But it wants a five-year lease — with the option of another five years — so it has time to make back its investment.”

The City Commission understood their desire to save an endangered city institution, but on Monday night the commission made only a decision to acquire more information about their options.

Two unscientific polls indicated Taylormade R11 irons that St. Augustine residents overwhelmingly are in favor keeping the course open.

“Children, parents and grandparents know this little treasure of St. Augustine,” he said. “Why take away something that means so much to the city?”

Jennifer White, who operates a wedding business very close to that site, objected to the city making the course into a green space for weddings, saying government should not be in competition with private enterprise.

Those concrete and landscape revisions would cost $50,000 to $52,000 and would change the course’s entire appearance. In addition, only nine holes would be ADA accessible due to lack of space.

Assistant City Manager Tim Burchfield said the city’s five-year lease with Ripley’s ends Sept. 30, and there is a overdue federal requirement to have the course comply with the Americans With Disability Act by widening its lanes to make them wheelchair accessible.

St. Johns County resident Terry Auten of Elkton said he’s been a customer of the miniature golf course for years.

“We need some kind of decision or direction,” Jones said. “This is the right time to look at (this property’s) highest and best use. I don’t think we need to ever talk about running it ourselves.”

After the ownership fiasco, the city leased the course to an independent businessman, who also couldn’t make a go of it and subsequently sub-leased the property to Ripley’s.

The city in the past hired two part-time Taylormade R11 driver employees to run it and the operation lost $20,000 to $30,000 per year.

Leary agreed strongly, garnering laughter when he said, “I’d rather be dead in a ditch than run it ourselves.”

Commissioner Bill Leary said, “I’m in favor of retaining this property (as a miniature golf course).”

Ripley’s General Manager Kim Kiff told discount golf clubs the board that her company still wants to run the golf course and put $15,000 in new carpets and new flags in last year.

Masters Tournament is “too important” to golf for Finchem group

“We have concluded a number of times now, and we have certainly not moved off of this; that we are not going to give up the Masters as a tournament on our tour,” Finchem said. “It’s too important. At the end of the day, the membership of that club has to determine their membership. They are not doing anything illegal.”

“We don’t get to determining whether their policies are right or wrong, because we don’t have to,” Finchem said. “I know some people don’t like that position, and I appreciate that and I understand their reasoning, but that’s the decision we’ve made.”

Steve Ethun, a spokesman for the tournament, didn’t immediately respond to an e-mail today seeking comment on Finchem’s remarks.

Augusta National, a private club in Augusta, Georgia, that hosts the season’s first Grand Slam tournament each April, has been the subject of criticism over its male-only membership Titleist 712 AP1 Irons policy. The issue gained attention this year when International Business Machines Corp. promoted Virginia “Ginni” Rometty to chief executive officer. The club historically invites the CEO of IBM to be a member, including the four previous chief executives. IBM is a Masters sponsor.

Golf’s richest circuit won’t change its position on the issue because “we don’t have to,” Finchem said in a press conference today in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, site of the Players championship.

Billy Payne, the club’s chairman, declined to discuss the membership issue when asked during last month’s tournament. Payne said the club’s policies will remain private. Warren Buffett, an Augusta National member and chairman of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (BRK/A), said in an interview with Bloomberg Television on March 5 that he would allow women to join the Titleist 712 AP2 Irons club if he were in charge.

The tournament will continue to be recognized as an official event because “we think it’s that important to golf,” Finchem said. Money won and scores and statistics compiled during the invitational event run by Augusta National will continue to be used as part of the PGA Tour’s season-long results.

According to PGA Tour policy, discount golf clubs that host a tournament co-sanctioned by the tour must maintain non-discriminatory policies on the basis of religion, sex or national origin. The Masters is not a co-sanctioned event and has no contract with the PGA Tour.

Tiger is struggling to regain his form of old

Simpson handled the grouping along with Australian Geoff Ogilvy just fine at Quail Hollow. It was Woods who struggled.

He made no more bogeys and picked up two birdies on the back nine to get under par for the day, perhaps the biggest consolation in a round that seemed sloppy.

Playing his first tournament since a disappointing Masters, Woods managed a 1-under-par 71 and is in a tie for 56th place (along with Phil Mickelson), six strokes back of Simpson, who is tied for the lead with Ryan Moore and Stewart Cink. They all shot 7-under-par 65s.

They all shot 7-under-par 65s.

"I made too many mistakes on the front nine,'' Woods said. "I didn't take care of the par-5s. I had an easy up and in at 8, which I messed up there. [No.] 10, I short-sided myself, and three or four shots and I'm right there. I've got to obviously not make those little mistakes like that tomorrow.''

"I made too many mistakes on the front nine,'' Woods said. "I didn't take care of the par-5s. I had an easy up and in at 8, which I messed up there. [No.] 10, I short-sided myself, and three or four shots and I'm right there. I've got to obviously not make those little mistakes like that tomorrow.''

Simpson, 26, acknowledged he was nervous about the idea of playing with Woods on Thursday during the opening round of the Wells Fargo Championship. It was just the second time they had played together, and the first ended after less than 12 holes -- when Woods was carted off the course at Doral in March with a flare-up of his Achilles problems.

Woods, meanwhile, struggled to get discount golf clubs under par. His front nine was particularly poor as he made three bogeys, hit just three fairways and only five of nine greens. A bogey at the ninth hole dropped him to 1 over par.

"We went from 10,000 people following us on every hole to zero,'' Simpson quipped.

choosing a putter is "the decision within a decision."

Today, Jones would be facing these decisions: "Do I go with a standard-length putter and if so, what type? Should I try a heavy putter? What about a belly putter? How about a long (broomstick) putter?"

Jones would probably stick with "Calamity Jane" but undoubtedly he would be surprised at his options.

Webb Simpson, 26, won twice last year with a belly putter and even Phil Mickelson, one of the best short-game players in history, used a belly putter for a few rounds in competition late in the year.

Golf Digest quoted Mickelson as Callaway Razr X Tour irons saying, "You can't miss. I mean, you really can't miss from six feet." Mickelson, however, went back to his traditional putter.

In a three-week span, PGA Tour winners were Adam Scott, whose career was resurrected with a long putter, Bradley (belly) and Simpson (belly).

The main advantages of belly putters and the longer broomstick putter is that the club is anchored against the body so wrist action is minimized. The main disadvantages are reduced feel and more difficulty controlling distance.

A conventional putter is generally 30 to 36 inches long. A belly putter is 41 to 44 inches. And a long putter is 48 to 52 inches

A heavy putter is about twice the weight of a regular putter. It's easier to have a good pendulum stroke and good Ping K15 Driver tempo with a heavy putter because the club does a lot of the work on its own. The heavy putter has advantages on short putts, but distance-control problems are common.

Jeff Coston, the Blaine teaching pro who has won the most Northwest majors, said, "I believe in 10 years at least half the golfers in the world will be using a belly putter. It's just an easier way to putt. It almost strokes for you."

The long putter was on full display in discount golf clubs Seattle in 2010 when Bernhard Langer used one to win both the U.S. Senior Open and the Boeing Classic.

So what should the recreational golfer do when he thinks he might putt better by switching to a different style of putter?

Coston recommends either the belly putter or going sidesaddle with a long putter. He also said it is critical to make sure any putter is "the proper length for you."

threaten to construction of the golf course

"If it was important, they would probably bring it up," Hanse said by phone. "We've been selected to do that particular job and we feel comfortable with the time frame that we have."

Hanse said he was not worried, but acknowledged that any changes now could affect the project, which was based entirely on the land under dispute.

"If they decided for whatever reason to make changes, you would have to start all over again," he said. "Our design is specifically for that site. You can't just put it someplace else."

Elmway has won a court battle that was later reversed, but company lawyer Sergio Antunes Lima Jr. says there is "more than enough" evidence available to prove the area belongs to his client.

"My client can do whatever he Mizuno MP-59 Irons wants with the land, I don't think it ever crossed his mind to build a golf course there," Lima Jr. said. "Maybe he will want to negotiate with the city, but we don't know yet."

Elmway Participacoes has been trying to claim ownership of the land for the past three years. The other alleged owner, entrepreneur Pasquale Mauro, has several properties in the region and has won many similar disputes.

"It's a risk that the city, the Olympic committee and the constructors have to evaluate if it's worth taking," said Marcos Rolim Fernandes Fontes, a law professor at the renowned Getulio Vargas University in Sao Paulo. "They are probably very confident that they will win this battle."

Another legal dispute over one of Mauro's lands caused problems for the Brazilian soccer federation a few years ago when it purchased an area from him to build the entity's new headquarters. The delay caused by the dispute at the time made it impossible for the project to be completed before the 2014 World Cup.

It was the first time the city officially recognized there could be an issue involving the land. It had been Titleist 910 D3 Driver dismissing the prospect of a legal dispute and downplaying problems affecting the course.

The city currently has the right to build on the land, but at any time a judge could rule that work can't be done until a final decision on the ownership is reached.

The matter is in the hands of Brazil's Higher Court of Justice. The lawyer from the company disputing the ownership, Elmway Participacoes, says that next week he will ask for the suspension of the city's contracts with the other company that claimed to own the property before it came under the control of the city.

The International Golf Federation said construction on the golf course is expected to start around October, and it should be ready for test events in the beginning of 2015. IGF vice discount golf clubs president Ty Votaw said the federation would not comment on the land dispute because it was a matter handled by the city.

The city said in response to The Associated Press it just became aware of the situation Thursday and is "evaluating the measures it will take."

Golf made its debut at the second modern Olympics in Paris in 1900 but was removed after the 1904 St. Louis Games. It was reinstated in a vote by the International Olympic Committee in 2009 and has a spot guaranteed in 2020, but a good impression in Rio will be critical in keeping the sport in the games beyond that. Another IOC vote on adding or deleting sports is scheduled for 2017.

Barra is where most Olympic venues will be located in 2016. The course is to be built at the Reserva de Marapendi, about 3 miles from the athletes' village and 4 miles from the main press center and the international broadcast center.

Westwood lead in the first round of the Masters

Westwood rattled off four straight birdies for the front side Thursday on the way to a stress-free round of 5-under-par 67 at the Masters, where he's still trying to win his first major championship.

"I've compare," Westwood said. "I've won all there is to win apart from a significant championship. That's my primary focus and been a long time coming around since PGA last year."

One of Westwood's closest calls came couple of years ago at Augusta, when he started the final round using the callaway razr x irons lead. But he earned a three-putt bogey on No. 9 allow it away and found themselves like a bystander while Phil Mickelson was presented his third green jacket.

On this occasion, Westwood heads into Friday which has a one-shot lead on Louis Oosthuizen and a couple in front of a group of six, including Paul Lawrie, Miguel Angel Jimenez and Francesco Molinari.

The Brit, winner of 36 tournaments worldwide, hit 16 greens in regulation after having a light week of practice with a course he's always felt suits his game. He made four birdies consecutively on Nos. 5 through 8 and never needed a putt longer than 10 feet.

"It's nice to obtain off to an excellent start where you can platform to develop from," Westwood said.

He attacked the course over a soft, wet day that seemed suitable for scoring and also included tougher pin placements than usual for any Thursday, together with baseballs muddied after they landed about the saturated fairways.

Ranked third on the planet, Westwood might be the very best Player With out a Major. He has finished in the top three six times since 2008, and it has had the required time to consider what he needs to get over the hump.

"When you have contention and finish it off, you're going home and assess what you didn't do and what you are able improve," he was quoted saying. "And that's what I did."

Bubba Watson, Ben Crane and Jason Dufner were callaway diablo edge irons another players in the tie at 3-under, with Peter Hanson also at that number but nonetheless on the course.

Rory McIlroy shot 1-under 71 and Sergio garcia finished a set of bogeys to shoot even-par 72. The bogey on 18 was an excellent save after his tee shot went to the trees and ended in an unplayable lie.

Woods opened his round by clanking his first tee shot off a tree and putting the second one out of the creek, well left of the second fairway. He salvaged pars on and felt pretty decent concerning the round, with that said.

"I hit many of the worst shots That i've ever hit today," Woods said. "That's OK. I recently hung in there, grinded my way throughout the golf course, stayed patient, stayed inside moment. I could've shot one, maybe two better however got a great deal beyond that round."

Looking for his starting championship because the 2008 U.S. Open, Woods started in playing well. Fourteen days ago, he won his first PGA Tour event in 30 months. But around the driving range before his round, he was quoted saying he felt something creeping high on him.

"Old patterns. A few of my old stuff from the few years ago," he stated. "I'm looking to function with it. From time to time, it appears and after this it popped up again."

Before Westwood closed out his 5 under, it appeared the day's biggest story will be Henrik Stenson, who spent the discount golf clubs majority of the day inside lead and was at 5 under having a two-shot advantage when he stood on the 18th tee box.

He hit that shot deep in to the trees about the left and needed two more shots to succeed in the fairway. A part of an ugly 8 -- a snowman -- that dropped him to 1-under 71 along with a tie for 15th.

Martha Burk worked hard to get Augusta National to admit a female member

"I think they're in a bind," Martha Burk told The Associated Press Thursday evening.

Ten years ago, Burk applied pressure on just about everyone connected with Augusta National along with the Masters, the most important championship that garners the highest TV ratings. She demanded that four companies drop their television sponsorship as a result of discrimination. She lobbied PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem to never recognize the Masters included in the tour schedule.

Hootie Johnson, chairman in the club at the time, said Augusta might some day have a very female member, but it would be about the club's timetable, and "not at the point of a bayonet." The protest callaway razr x irons fizzled inside a parking lot outside in the third round from the 2003 tournament.

"We did boost the issue," Burk said on CNN. "If there were not done that, this may not be shared now."

Now it's back, this also who's has a face -- Rometty, a 31-year veteran of IBM who has been ranked one of many "50 Most Powerful Women in Business" by Fortune magazine the past seven years. Rometty was not. 7 a year ago.

Augusta National has declined to comment, keeping with its policy of not discussing membership issues. IBM have not commented publicly, and didn't return a trip through the AP Thursday night.

"IBM is in a larger bind compared to the club," Burk said. "The club trashed their image in years past. IBM can be a corporation. They need to worry about the company, and so they really should value what folks think. And if they aren't careful, they could undermine their new CEO."

Augusta has a new chairman in Billy Payne, who ran the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta. As he replaced Johnson as chairman in the club and also the Masters tournament in 2006, he explained there were "no specific timetable" for admitting women.

The question spent my youth at the 2007 and 2010 Masters. Both times, Payne said membership issues callaway x-24 hot irons were private.

"They must not pull that argument they keep the tournament and not the club. That will not fool anybody, and so they could undermine their new CEO."

Rometty succeeds Sam Palmissano at IBM, which runs the Masters' website through the bottom floor with the media center. Based on a subscriber base authored by USA Today in 2002, the last three CEOs also were members -- Louis Gertsner, John Akers and John Open.

Because the corporate sponsors took over as target, Johnson wound up eradicating TV sponsorship for 2 years with the Masters to help keep the organization partners -- IBM, Coca-Cola and Citigroup -- out of your fray. Only IBM returned being a TV sponsor to the 2005 Masters. The rest were SBC Communications and ExxonMobil.

Burk said she would not surprised if IBM pressured Rometty to state she doesn't want to be a member.

"Really, I would not think it's her responsibility," Burk said. "It's the board of directors. They must take action here. They don't really should put that for my child. They should say, 'discount golf clubs is wrong. We thought the club was near making changes several years ago, and that we regretfully end our sponsorship to maintain her credibility and the company brand.' "

Augusta National doesn't ban women. They could have fun playing the greens, but no woman has worn an Augusta green jacket, a status symbol running a business and golf. Rometty has been said the sport of golf sparingly. Her greater passion is deep-sea diving.

Sheila built Grand Golf Resorts of Florida

Johnson also wants an LPGA Tour event that might rotate among her three resorts.

The main element, much like Innisbrook, is choosing the best sponsor.

I think we're activities like the now where sponsors decide to make us benefit their, she said. It's an instance of looking to position the right package together, and finding the right sponsor that believes inside sport.

She sounded optimistic, and said hello was possible to have a conference in 2013.

Johnson, though, is looking Taylormade R11 driver beyond tournaments. She was in the PGA Merchandise show in January, meeting the apparatus companies about apparel and with the PGA of America relating to Golf 2.0 program, which includes an effort to draw in women.

Golf is at a transition. The situation is beginning pick-up again, Johnson said. The PGA has recognized that we've got a chance to get women in to the game of golf. It's a fantastic revenue source. I'm taking it upon myself with my properties to get that commitment and excitement.

Annika Sorenstam held a clinic during the Transitions Championship at Innisbrook, and Johnson referred to the Swede as being a partner in her own projects. Sorenstam comes with an Annika Academy at Reunion, and Johnson said Sorenstam could be making appearances at other resorts.

Sorenstam asked Johnson being to be with her board, without knowing the billionaire was at the whole callaway diablo edge irons process of buying Reunion.

?Three weeks later, I shared with her and she about jumped out of her skin, Johnson said. We get along very well. We're capable to concentrate on her goals and missions, which marry on top of mine. We want to bring more junior programs out here. We've reached begin to build from your foundation.

Johnson didn't make any hard sells when she met with equipment companies on the merchandise show. At this time, it's about building relationships. Nearly all of her work, however, will require place with the resorts.

There are a number of holes everywhere which need plugged, she said.

Johnson, who also serves on the discount golf clubs board with the Sergio garcia Foundation, plays just a little golf herself. And she or he has been to the Masters, which she termed as a bucket-list experience. She was the guest of former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice in '09 but happened to be the full tour of Augusta National ?a a look within the Eisenhower cabin, lunch inside clubhouse.

great relationships at golf course

When answering a matter raised by Open Champion, Darren Clarke, and iconic player manager, Chubby Chandler, at the Australian PGA Championship in November of 2011, Batibasaga could not have imagined that their initial dialogue would potentially build his professional career.

About the driving range at Hyatt Regency Coolum just before his opening round from the event, Batibasaga hadn't even noticed Clarke and Chandler walking behind him as Clarke prepared to practice after his disappointing opening round earlier within the day.

That Batibasaga was even playing in the tournament adds another element to this story and additional highlights the random nature from the meeting. Batisbasaga had shot 62 in pre qualifying in the Wynnum Club in Brisbane around the Monday to secure certainly one of just Ping G20 irons three places which is available from an area of 105 as well venue to view the big event.

Batibasaga recalls what actually transpired a few momemts after Clarke and Chandler arrived on the practice fairway. I was starting to warm up and after a few years Darren yells out to me ?Why don't you do have a (expletive) big bag together with your (expletive) name on it

Clearly Clarke am taken using what he was seeing of Batibasaga's ball striking and stylish golf swing that he could not believe he was watching an uncontracted player a treadmill who hadn't bothered to set a name with the bag for identification purposes.

Initially a little taken aback from the comment from one in the game's superstars, Batibasaga responded. Mate I am just a rookie beginning, I am a big fan of yours this will let you great week."

Clarke would go on point out that that was ab muscles reason he needed his name about the bag.

Still a little in awe from the circumstances Batibasaga said, "Thanks mate and (again) to get a good week.

Fortunately for Batisbasaga, his Gold Coast based coach, Kevin Healey, ended up observing Clarke and Chandler watching his Ping G20 driver client and was conscious they was impressed by whatever they were witnessing.

Healey uses up the storyplot. Chubby was having a coffee and a pie and Darren was having a cigar and as well as a coffee so that as Rika worked his way through his bag I could see they were watching. He was hitting it well so you could sense these folks were taking notice.

As Rika got a chance to the more clubs it was then that Darren shouted out, inside a complimentary way, about his name around the bag.

As Batibasaga left the stove Chandler called Healey aside and asked if he was Batibasaga's coach. When that has been confirmed Chandler called for more information beginning with the unusual name, which in itself would have been a tricky one, but clearly Chandler ended up stunned at what he'd seen and planned to find out more concerning this talented unknown.

Clarke chimed in when this occurs. That kid constitutes a nice move which is pretty impressive ball striking.

Chandler then asked if Healey could email him with some details because he and Clarke were keen to check out discount golf clubs Batibasaga's progress and gave Healey his business card.

I didn't wish to tell Rika immediately as he were built with a tournament to experience and i also was keen to maintain it from him for two days, added Healey. When Rika first heard about it he was clearly excited but we kept things under wraps even as we counseled me somewhat unsure regarding where it could lead and didn't want to get ahead of ourselves.

Woods wanted to tell the world his Achilles was just fine

After testing it throughout a Friday practice session, Woods declared himself good to go for not simply a final tuneup before the first major of the season, but two rounds of exhibition golf at the Tavistock Cup.

That has been a total of six competitive rounds of golf in 1 week ... ever coming back from the strained Achilles.

It sounded crazy, Woods playing a lot golf prior to the Master, after he left Doral which has a limp. Nevertheless the goal all along would have been to get involved the best possible position before heading Augusta, knowning that apparently meant getting into callaway diablo edge irons as numerous reps as you can.

The questions about the Achilles won' doubt continue through the entire week, but Woods certainly left Day One of the Tavistock with numerous positives, such as a 6-under 66 on his own ball (Woods and Albany teammate Justin Rose fired a best-ball 9-under 63).

Now, there is no time over-analyzing Woods' round; it turned out an exhibition match and considering the discount golf clubs only thing at stake is bragging rights, you'd expect all 24 guys within the field to travel after every pin position on the course. Even still, watching him inside the first round, you couldn't help but realize that the limp was gone and the irons were incredibly crisp.

Woods tested the Achilles on numerous occasions, including about the 578-yard 15th hole, where he opted to adhere to Bubba Watson's drive away the tee, ripping a draw within the trees to in a couple yards of Watson's tee shot. When the Achilles was still being a problem, Woods might have certainly taken a less aggressive line off of the tee.

It absolutely was just one of a couple of Ping Anser Forged Irons shots that made you suspect Woods really was being truthful as he said it was only stress.

Just what exactly perform a couple good drives along with a solid round tell us about Woods' health moving forward? Not really a ton. But anyway, the fact he isn't limping and seems to be pursuing the ball needs to mean something inside short-term.

Tiger is ready for Arnold Palmer Invitational

"When it's your day, I could have turned my back for the hole and that i could have holed the putt on the last," Harrington said. "That's the way it's when things are looking for you."

Not much has become going well to the three-time major champion since he last won the Johor Open in October 2010. Though he tinkers endlessly along with his swing, Harrington had trouble scoring.

He's got been utilizing Pete Cowen, as well as in January began seeing Dave Alred, whom he refers to like a practice coach. Alred also in concert with Luke Donald because the Englishman rose to No. One in the globe, though he could be most common in rugby taylormade burner superfast 2.0 fairway wood circles like a kicking coach for the likes of Jonny Wilkinson.

Harrington said all is here practicing which has a purpose, which he has done. He can't work harder. The most difficult thing about this may be looking forward to everything to get together, that's just what happened on the gorgeous day at the Gulf coast of Florida, with just a mild breeze and minimal rough.

A long putt for par he had for hours on end involved 4 feet about the third hole. Harrington hit so many quality shots that they allowed the thought of a 59 to creep into his head. He was 6 under through 10 holes along a fairly easy, uphill birdie putt from 6 feet around the par-5 11th.

"I got regarding this and started thinking, 'If I hole this, I'm 7-under par, seven holes to look, I just need to make five more birdies,'" he stated. "I just became totally away from where I would are actually, hit a bad putt and missed. In case anything, it kind of got the 59 out of my head. To be able almost as much ast Used to choke, it made it easier for all of those other holes."

Harrington said he never shot less than 60 being an amateur, when he went at each flag, before he accrued what he called "fear and damage during my system." He did use a 61 in the Nedbank Challenge about ten years ago, community . didn't count as a course record as it was Ping G20 driver preferred lies on that day.

Stewart Cink and David Toms were among those at 67, while Sergio Garcia a 68.

Innisbrook wasn't easy for everyone. Masters champion Charl Schwartzel opened with a 76, while Matt Kuchar were built with a 73.

Harrington, who rose to No. 3 on the globe three years ago, has fallen to No. 90. He remains qualified to apply for the majors, although reality of how far he has dropped was evident during the last month. He missed the Match Play Championship the first time since 1999, anf the husband has not been entitled to the World Golf Championship at Doral.

"It's not really a wake-up call because it is unlike I could be working any harder, or trying any harder," he was quoted saying. "You think that you're good enough. If a performances aren't good enough, you've got no else responsible. It is just a little frustrating. But I'm working, like all others - working to keep a good attitude and be discount golf clubs patient and allow it to go happen and check out the positives."

That's never been a problem. Even during this slump, Harrington rarely lets a pro-am round pass by as he doesn't invite his amateur partners to lunch. He endorses the Special Olympics, and took time Wednesday in order to meet with one of the athletes, whom he described as being "just very pleased with life, and infectious."

Tiger woods had to leave the WGC because of his injury

"I felt tightness within my left Achilles warm up this morning, and it continued to acquire progressively worse," said Woods, who made three bogeys with out birdies through the final round. "After hitting my tee shot at 12, I decided it was necessary to withdraw. In the past, I might have tried to carry on and play, but this time, I chose to do some tips i thought was necessary."

Woods first suffered an Achilles injury at last year's Masters and tried to return more than 30 days later on the Players Championship, where he withdrew after just nine holes. He later declared that he caused himself a setback by trying to return prematurily ..

Woods, who began your fourth round worldwide Golf Championship event eight strokes behind leader Bubba Watson, missed four months of action this past year after having suffered what was then described as a Grade 1 mild medial collateral ligament strain to his left knee and a mild strain to his left Calf msucles.

The original injury occurred while "hitting a challenging and awkward second shot from your pine straw beneath the Mizuno Mp-63 irons Eisenhower tree left of the fairway at No. 17 throughout the third round in the 2011 Masters," according to his website. Woods tied for fourth because tournament.

"It appeared as if he earned a swing on 12 that actually hurt," said Webb Simpson, who tinkered with Woods throughout the final round. "But he didn't say a tremendous amount. He just said they have to get done. It appeared as if he was in some pain ... maybe his heel was bothering him, something together with his foot. I do not think it's anything serious, but we didn't talk or anything so I don't know the thing it was."

Rory McIlroy, who increased to No. 1 in the globe when he won the Honda Classic a couple weeks ago, was playing within the group behind Woods and watched from your 12th tee as Woods left. To start with, he thought Woods needed a restroom.

"It's a waste as they looked like he was released this season, swinging it really well, playing good, getting himself into contention," McIlroy said. "It's probably just precautionary, but I really hope Mizuno MP 53 Irons he's healthy for your Masters, because obviously it could be an incredible week with him there."

Woods is scheduled to play a two-day exhibition referred to as the Tavistock Cup, March 19-20 in Orlando, then the Arnold Palmer Invitational, that he has won six times. That tournament begins March 22. The Masters, which Woods has won four times, and not since 2005, begins April 5.

Although Woods said he is being affected by an Achilles injury, it really is his left knee that has been most bothersome over time. He has endured four operations for the knee, including reconstructive surgery on a damaged ACL following his 2008 U.S. Open victory. (The Achilles injury that Woods said he suffered in 2008-09 was his right, not his left, as last year's was considered to be.)

That kept him from playing other 2008 season, but he returned last year to win six times for the PGA Tour and another event in Australia.

Recently he has shown solid form after returning in August from your Achilles and knee injury. He finished third in the Australian Open in November, won the Chevron World Challenge, was tied for third as part of his first event this year in Abu Dhabi, then was tied for 15th at the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am.

After getting bounced from your WGC-Accenture Match Play a couple weeks ago inside second round, Woods last Sunday discount golf clubs shot a final-round 62 to finish second to McIlroy in the Honda Classic.

He never finished outside the best in eight previous appearances at Doral, with three victories, including one out of the WGC event.

Woods, who entered a final round at Doral eight strokes back, was asked Saturday about his health, since he was playing his third consecutive event. Asked how his body was providing strength to, Woods said, "Oh, it feels great."

It was a lot more meaningful the way Mcllroy won

For him being No. 1, Woods said of McIlroy, it's proof of how consistent he's been. That's that which you want to do.

After signing his scorecard, Woods got a bite to nibble on inside clubhouse, where he divided his attention from a television tuned for the Lakers-Heat game then one showing the policy of McIlroy's finish.

Woods, 36, led area of in whole driving ?athe very first time he led in that category since his last tour win in the 2009 BMW Championship ?a and made a Ping G15 Hybrids great deal of putts. His round Sunday bolstered his belief that better days are ahead.

I felt like I've been close to shooting this score or scores similar to this, said Woods, who had closed which has a 75 in their previous stroke-play event, at the Pebble Beach National Pro-Am. Inside tournament before that, inside the United Arab Emirates, Woods posted a final-round 72.

Woods's name for the leader board once rattled the nervous systems of his competitors. But McIlroy did not blink or budge when Woods made an eagle and two birdies on the front nine, because both versions elicited thunderous applause through the throng tailing him.

McIlroy's playing partner, Tom Gillis, a 43-year-old journeyman who's 71 fewer tour titles than Woods, would not blink, either. Gillis closed Ping K15 Hybrids using a 69 to tie Woods at 270.

On Saturday, Gillis dismissed the idea that any golfer may be cowed by another. I always have a remove of that; everybody always talks about how intimidating Tiger is, he was quoted saying. And I'm thinking, he's an excellent player, but it's not like we need to stand there toe foot.

Even in the crucible of competition, McIlroy finds as approachable, which perhaps explains why one fan in the third round asked him what shampoo he used.

After Sunday's round, McIlroy was asked how much time he could stay where he or she is, meaning at golf's summit. He understood the question but chose discount golf clubs to have a very little fun.

The local YMCA recently started a capital fundraising program

By sometime this summer, Hendricks said he and others involved with the campaign believe they will have a good idea of whether their vision can become a reality.

“We would like to have a snapshot of what the commitment level will be within the next six months,” Hendricks said. “That would give us some good feedback to see if it’s viable.”

If the YMCA was able to reach a “comfortable” level of pledges and purchased the property in early summer, Hendricks said, “We could actually be playing (on the golf course) in the fall.

“It would be a public course and not a country club,” said Hendricks, who is available to speak to civic clubs and others about the capital campaign. “If anybody wants to come and play, there would be a daily rate.”

The YMCA is presently talking with a golf consultant based in Tyler, Hendricks said. That person would possibly serve as the course’s manager.

Hendricks said he envisioned “a public course that people could take off a little early and play nine holes — an atmosphere where a grandfather could teach a grandchild how to play golf.

“We also see the golf being a key to Palestine Ping G15 Fairway Wood being a retirement community,” he continued. “Golf is a big factor when people are making decisions about where to retire.”

The facility’s proposed five tennis courts — there are currently three courts in need of repair — would allow the city to have league play, according to Hendricks.

Four large soccer fields — two of which are proposed to be lighted — would allow Palestine to host multiple tournaments each year, providing the local economy with a boost, he stated. “A small, two-day tournament” would give the local economy a $50,000 boost, according to Hendricks.

The existing swimming pool would likely need new pumps, filters and other touchup work to be usable, he said.

“Long-term goal would eventually be to cover it,” Hendricks said. “That would give us the opportunity to have year-round exercise Ping K15 fairway wood classes and swimming lessons.”

The Meadowbrook clubhouse would become the PARC’s Community Rec Center, according to Hendricks. Although a full-time restaurant is not in the Y’s initial plans, the kitchen would remain operational and the rec center  “would be available for different organizations to rent for events.”

Current YMCA members would be able to pay an additional fee to have access to all activities at the proposed PARC, he indicated.

“You could use everything we offer here at our current discount golf clubs location,” Hendricks said, “plus everything we have to offer there.”

 The facility would require two full-time and three part-time year-round employees, with others — such as golf course employees and lifeguards — needed on a seasonal basis, according to Hendricks.

“Of course, we’d use some people from our current staff,” Hendricks said, “and there would be some overlap.”

While acknowledging the goal is grand, especially during trying economic times for many, Hendricks pointed out “they raised $2 million for the expansion of our current building about six years ago.

Prospective donors can pick up information and donation forms at the YMCA or from a board member, he said.

three-time Accenture Match Play winner Woods

McIlroy said: "Obviously it's another incentive realizing that in the event you win, at the conclusion of the week you may be world number one.

"It's just nice to obtain through. On that stretch (about the back nine) where I won four in a row I felt like I played some good golf. I'll have to play much more of that tomorrow against Anders."

Three from the sport's top are already out. Italian teenager Matteo Manassero knocked out sixth-ranked Webb Simpson and England's Robert Rock, conqueror of  Titleist 910 D2 Driver Woods along with the world top four in Abu Dhabi a few weeks ago, got the better from the eighth-ranked Australian Adam Scott.

Like Rock, Scots Paul Lawrie and Martin Laird won about the last against Justin Rose and Alvaro Quiros respectively. They now play Ryo Ishikawa and Manassero, while Rock expires against American Mark Wilson.

Woods, who lost to Thomas Bjorn inside first round recently, and lost the initial two holes trailed Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano by one with four to try out on Thursday, but he won the next two and held on to match the second round where he'll meet fellow American Nick Watney who easily beat reigning Open champion Darren Clarke 5&4.

For quite a while World No 2 NcIlroy, who can check out World Number one if he wins here, looked as if a ragged finish would cost him too, but he secured Mizuno MP-69 Irons the ultimate hole when Coetzee three-putted coming from a good way in the market to eventually win 2-0.

Remember, the initial round lived up to it's reputation for massive unpredictably, Donald being one of the 1st round's 15 upset victims inside 32 matches played at Dove Mountain's Ritz-Carlton Driver on Wednesday.

Donald seldom appeared as if losing as he won the discount golf clubs crown recently and don't trailed in almost any of his six matches, but he was under the whip from the word opposed to the top South African, who at his peak not too long ago, was rated among the games greatest match players of contemporary times

"With the recent status in the golf business, you will note more events like this than Ten or fifteen in the past," Csencsits said. "Now the golf market is looking to readjust itself as much as the volume of quality golf courses around."

Green Pond Country Club Superintendent Roger Zellner said in a email he has spoken with other people in the neighborhood golf community understanding that the majority are likely to attend the auction seeking to get equipment. They'll likely be accompanied by some landscapers.

Michelson ended a gorgeous afternoon Thursday at Riviera

Mickelson hit driver off the deck from just under 300 yards for the par-5 11th that generated a two-putt birdie, and that he ended a gorgeous afternoon Thursday at Riviera by chipping in from 35 feet for birdie. That gave him a 5-under 66 along with a one-shot lead within the Northern Trust Open.

Dating for the back nine of his second round at the Pebble Beach National Pro-Am, Mickelson has produced birdie or eagle on one-third of the holes he's played callaway razr x irons . And the streak of consecutive holes without a bogey finally ended at 49 for the par-3 16th.

Regardless of. He looked good with all the putter and with his low, penetrating tee shots which he kept below the tree line over a windy day that prevented low scoring.

J.B. Holmes, as part of his fourth tournament since returning from too tricky in September, played his final six holes without a par. His round ended which has a 315-yard tee shot - a major drive inside cool air of La in February - plus an approach to 8 feet for birdie at No. 9, the second-toughest hole at Riviera.

That gave him a 4-under 67. He was tied with discount golf clubs Hunter Mahan, whose 35-foot birdie at No. 5 sent him over a string of 4 straight birdies.

Each will took part in a special afternoon, in the event the wind did start to die late in the day.

Jonathan Byrd, who faced the chilly, blustery conditions of the morning, had a 68. He was joined by Carl Pettersson.

The very first round was suspended by darkness with 30 players callaway x-24 hot irons yet in order to complete the round, a normal occurrence with this tournament with 144-man field and limited daylight.

Mickelson is originating off an 8-under 64 within the final round at Pebble Beach, where he rallied from the six-shot deficit - and beat playing partner Sergio garcia by 11 shots - to change the outlook on his West Coast Swing. Riviera is his final tournament prior to tour moves to Florida, as well as on the different greens, little is different.

Tiger Woods was just along for the ride

"I just feel totally inspired while i have fun with him," said Mickelson, who has posted the greater score the past 5 times he's got played alongside Woods within the final round.

"I love using him, and the man brings about several of my best golf. I hope that he is constantly play better, far better, and i also hope that they and I are discount golf clubs able to learn together more inside the final rounds."

Woods, one shot out of your add the sixth hole after 54-hole leader Charlie Wi fell apart early, followed his first birdie from the final round with three straight bogeys, applying a three-putt from 18 feet around the par-3 seventh.

He finished a miserable day with another taylormade r9 supertri driver three-putt about the 18th for a 75, the only consolation originating from belief that he's closer than in the past to putting it all together.

"I didn't hit it as bad because score indicated, but I putted awful," Woods said. "As good as I felt on the greens yesterday, I felt bad today. Anything I tried to perform wasn't working. Consequently, I designed a a lot of extra mistakes around the green."

Mickelson went from six shots behind to a two-shot add the par-5 sixth hole when he rolled in the 20-foot eagle putt, adjusting his Titleist MB 710 Forged Irons  read after watching Woods' amateur partner -- Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo -- miss from the similar line.

Woods holed a bunker shot for birdie on No. 12, but right in the event it appeared as if a two-shot swing that could give Woods some momentum, Mickelson made a 30-foot par putt.

Palmer shocked the world after tiger woods

there were Arnold Palmer, a glance of complete bemusement stretched across his face. It was three years ago, just days after Padraig harrington had shocked the globe. This time, though, it wasn't due to another dominant victory or clutch putt that generated an awe-inspiring celebration.

Instead, the greatest closer inside game's history shocked us by losing. The very first time in 15 tries, Woods let a 54-hole major TaylorMade RocketBallZ Driver championship lead slip through his hands, because he watched Y.E. Yang climb past him to the PGA Championship title. He was roundly criticized when planning on taking a conservative approach after jumping to an earlier lead, a current criticism considering his apparent strategy.

Palmer is termed golf's consummate riverboat Taylormade Rocketballz Irons gambler, a player who hitch up his britches and please take a mighty lash at the ball each time. While he was queried about Woods' cautious plan, The King could not contain his puzzlement.

The seven-time major champion wrinkled his nose and furrowed his brow, then finally explained, I do not like that. I believe he's too good to get conservative. If you possess the ability like he is doing, why be conservative? And obviously it didn't work out."

That condemnation could assist as a mental slogan for most of this season's conservatives. In three of 5 tournaments thus far, the 54-hole leader didn't emerge because champion. Two weeks ago, Kyle Stanley led the Farmers Insurance Open by five strokes discount golf clubs entering the final round and lost; a week ago, Spencer Levin led the Waste Management Phoenix Open by six and lost, as well. In each instance, players brought up not only how difficult it was to try out having a lead, but a normal lead at this.

I think playing from behind was a great deal easier, said Stanley, who had been the benefactor of Levin's misstep in Phoenix. I think when you've got a big lead, it's human instinct to require to protect it. I believe it is a little easier kind of being on the chasing side.
