For the 1060 AM trivia question on Monday 3/1/10- Jackie Gleason ( " Baby, you are the greatest ") was the celebrity whose name preceeded the Honda- the Inverrary Classic was the name of the event. Now, can you imagine one TW saying the same ?
Trivia question - 2/22/10 written by Sean Stecker,
February 23, 2010
Pomp,
My answer of "William Wright" for first African American major championship winner was an answer I looked up (again, full disclosure ). I didn't catch the original question as i was late getting out of work, so apologies that I screwed it up. I said to myself "Surely the answer Tiger Woods is too easy, this is a trick question". Ah well. Appreciate the offer to accept the answer for the prize, but ultimately it's your call on it. Not sure if you remember me, but I called in mainly to have an excuse to come hang out with you and catch up (played with you in a late practice round before the Open qualifier at Poston Butte and used to work at StoneCreek). Hope all is well, look forward to seeing you again sometime soon!

Last week at the Turning Stone Tournament, one thing stood out, putting will always overcome ball striking. Matt Kuchar the winner and Vaughn Taylor put on a putting display for the ages. They made putt after putt after putt. Congrats to Matt on winning the event, and my point was that Taylor missed his drive in the water on the sixth playoff hole to loose, but Kuchar made all the clutch putts to keep himself in the event when it looked like Vaughn had chances to win if he didn't convert.
Fedex continued written by X Man,

Tiger won the tourney the week before. Phil did nothing thru 3 previous tourneys...Duh? Your case is dead my friend. Keep on keepin' on for Tiger! The greatest golfer ever!

X man, thanks for you response, but as I see it your a Az Cardinal fan, they should be crowned Super Bowl Champs for going to the SuperBowl. In any other sport, who is the champ without winning the final game? Should Roger Federer be the US Open champ for losing in the finals? Congrats to Phil on a great victory under the family stress, I truly think this is his greatest win under the circumstances. But on a last note, the system is flawed if the playoffs are over and you still have more tournaments to play!
Tiger's Fedex win. written by X Man,
September 29, 2009
The format has been the same all along for the Fedex. It's about points and not winning just the last tourney. Hurrah for Tiger.....and glad Phil finally got a win after all the stress he's been under with family matters. I guess setting the clubs down can somtimes help.

The FedEx cup was exciting to watch and I want to Congratulate Phil Mickelson on winning the Tour Championship. It's a very rare site when Phil and Tiger can be in the same tournament and both come out winners. Congrats to Tiger for winning the FedEx Cup for a second time.. Now what kind of playoff system do you have when you don't win the last tournament and become the champ? I don't see that in other sports. Yes the players win alot of money but its flawed and needs so be fixed. Last thing, this is the first year when Tiger has gone into the weekend, or leading after 54 holes and has not won the tournament. You can blame it on your putting Tiger, we all do, but the knee needs more work and rehab

Hi stranger, Long time! I am in dire need of your famous "5 min" lesson. Actually probably a full lesson as have not been able to play this year due to knee surgery. Tomorrow is my first round! Get in touch if in NYC. Stuart also says HI!
Congrats to Tiger on a dominate performance! The facts are the facts, when Tiger drives the ball in the fairway and putts as well as he did this week, he dominates. Tigers best asset, it the fact that he takes pride in proving his critics wrong in a silent watch my actions way. Now lets talk about the choke of all choke jobs on the 18th green, Brandt Snedeker. That was an awfull display and first hand look of imploding under pressure. Professionals at that level don't do that, well guess they do now. Four putting on the last hole to knock yourself out of the Tour Championship is a first and I hope Dr. Rotella can help you. I wish we had a video on mental capasity, but we don't. Come back next week to see the suggested video.
After watching the great coverage of the FedEx Cup coverage last week, you should have seen a couple of things. One, all tour pros hit the ball great, but the difference between making it, and not, is simply PUTTING. Steve Stricker is by far the best putter on the tour and he uses the straight back, straight thru technique in putting. Tiger uses the arc putting method and as you have seen, he is struggling with putting. Check out the video's on the site on both techniques to see which one works best for you. Plus we have video's on long putter putting and face alignment

I used the tip on the setup stance with the driver and it really works! Cut down on hitting behind the ball and kept the driver straighter! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
The Solheim cup was a refreshing change to the golf coverage last week. Congrats to the USA for winning the cup. I want to acknowledge my SJSU Alumni from both sides, Janice Moody from Europe and Julie Inkster from the winning USA. Both teams played very well and the difference in the matches was putting. The USA team made putts from all distances. Long, short, uphill and downhill. I recommend that everyone view the video's on putting for distance control and putter face alignment. With the FedEx cup playoffs here, look for Tiger to dominate since he has had a week to rest that knee. He has played really well this year when it has not been a major and the conditions don't expose his weekness.

Pomp, The hybrid video was great. Well worth watching. The idea that this club departs very little spin makes it more versatile than I though. Craig
Wow, the PGA Championship was amazing. Y E Yang hit the shot of all shots in a major championship. It might be the best shot in the history of golf. To hit a hybrid over a tree with the ball below your feet with a cross wind left to right, to 8 feet with the number one player in the world breathing down your neck is just clutch. I want to congratulate AJ Monticieno for a great cadddying job. I highly recommend that people watch the video on the site on the hybrid to try what Y E just pulled off. Congrats again.
Want to thank Golf Digest for the latest award the gave me. My pic for the PGA is Lee Westwood. Good luck Lee, you have been close, now time to close one out.

Lessons really helped written by DeWitt Lang,
July 31, 2009
Pomp, the recent lessons helped me break 90 for the first time! I think understanding how to stand to the loft and lie of the club improved my irons and the extra backswing rotation improved my driving distance and direction. I shot 88 at Indian Well Celebrity Course in Palm Springs last week in 118 degrees - what a day! Thanks!!! and Happy Birthday - will definitely sign up for the website.
Congratulations to Stewart Cink and Bo van Pelt on winning last week. My pic for the Canadian Open is Steven Ames, Trinidad transplant that lives in Canada now.

Look forward to reading your positive imformation about becoming a better player.. love the short game tips
Thinking of a special for my birthday to give a gift to all my friends and their friends. People who have never played and want to pick up the game will benefit, and advanced players will benefit. Keep your eyes and ears open in the next couple of weeks. I want to increase the membership to over 100,000 people and thinking about giving one free month on the website to the first 1oo,ooo people or 3 months on the website for $5.25. What sounds better? Give me your feedback people. It will start Aug 1.
The scores lately have been very good to see. I'm curious to see how things will change with the new groove rule in 2010. Congrats to Steve Stricker on a good win at the John Deere. Putting is the key to winning tournaments and playing well. Ok, my choice for the British Open is Henrick Stenson, the current Players Champ and my dark horse is Bryce Molder. Good luck this week fellas.
Congrats Tiger on winning the AT&T. Great play and as we can see, you game is back. No back door wins, just good solid play.
