A few weeks ago, Conor wrote a post outlining Sergio Garcia’s battle with the IRS, along with a brief mention of Retief Goosen’s similar woes. Difference is, the IRS claims Sergio owes $1.72 million, while the petition filed against the Goose is a tad more modest, amounting to $164,698 in back taxes and $32,940 in […]

The USGA released the first and second round groupings and tee times on Friday afternoon for next week’s U.S. Open at Chambers Bay, and I have to say that they’re not as “fun” (or funny) as they traditionally have been (unless I’m completely missing something). Perhaps it’s because they got into some trouble for the […]
