• John Senden Will Win The FedEx Cup, and Tom Delay Will Win Dancing With The Stars, and Here’s How

  Several years ago I wrote a book that no one read. A passage in that book referenced a memory test that went something like this: “Let’s give it a try, okay? Just for fun? Here goes.” With his yellow pad in hand, Doctor Ferguson read each number precisely...

• 10 Things I Hate About The End of Summer Golf

  Now and then it’s time to reconcile… to take note of… to ponder… to stop and smell the new golf glove before you move on to a new season. Generally speaking, I am not sentimental, but I do enjoy the change of the seasons. In a way, I envy those of you...

• Trash Talking At The FedEx Cup

  In U. S. sports trash talking has become a refined, and at times, artful part of professional basketball and football. As a professional wise-ass, I don’t necessarily endorse shooting off one's mouth for the sake of intimidation, but it has its moments...

• Why Does Tiger Woods Feel Like a Loser?

  For the most part, golf is an individual sport. You win or lose by your own means unless you’re playing Jean Van de Velde, but that’s another story, or is it? Tiger Woods has won five times in 2009 and that alone puts him in elite company. He has 70 career...

• Somewhere Between Karl Wallenda and Mark Calcavecchia

  Scatter shooting this week. Tiger dropped from 142nd place to 152nd place in the FedEx point race. And, if he misses the cut this Friday and slips to 175th all the Tiger worshipers will slit their wrists. However, since the FedEx Cup means next to nothing...

• Golf Without Tiger

  Several years ago there was a movie out titled A Day Without Mexicans. The premise was that those of us who are not Mexicans walk around oblivious to some of the hard working people who make our world function smoothly. Certainly, there is some validity...

• The King is Dead. Long Live the King; Is the European Tour Becoming the Tour of Choice?

  It all started 20 years ago when Greg Norman decided that the PGA Tour was not the center of the universe, and now that same idea is sending Tim Finchem back to the medicine cabinet for another roll of Tums. Who cares if it makes perfect sense for the...

• And The FedEx Cup Winner Is…

  The FedEx Cup already had its work cut out for it, and now that the U.S. of A. has pounded the festive whey out of the Euros in the Ryder Cup, it may be impossible to get excited about whatever happens. Let’s face it, Vijay Singh is in the same spot that...

• Good Bye FedEx Cup. Hello Ryder Cup.

  Scatter shooting while wondering what happened to Phil Mickelson at the FedEx Cup? I hate to say I told you so, but I will. As I predicted (along with half the other golf writers in the western world), the final round of the FedEx Cup will not decide...

• Vijay Is Already Counting The Money... Can You Blame Him?

  Well, here we are again, half way through the FedEx Cup and only about four guys even have a remote shot at winning the $10 million, and if Vijay gets a 10,501-point lead over second place next time around, he can’t lose even if he DQs during the final...

• Is It Too Early, or Too Late to Worry About The FedEx Cup?

  Most of the time when you look at the stats of a tournament it is easy to see how the champion won. Not so at the Barclays. Sure, Vijay rolled in a big one on the first playoff hole and Sergio turned into Sergio on the second hole, but other than that...

• The FedEx Cup; Lost Somewhere Between I Forgot and Who Cares

  Between the remarkable PGA Championship just completed, and the always-exciting Ryder Cup set for the middle of September, is the FedEx Cup, the PGA’s attempt to manufacture a playoff system that I expect, when all is said and done, will be neither remarkable...

• Forget Tiger Television Ratings, We Got Dancing With The Pros

  As you and I try to adjust to golf without Tiger Woods, I wonder if PGA Tour Commissioner Tim Finchem is doing the same. In all likelihood he’s staying up nights trying to figure out how to hold on to his Tigerless TV audience. One idea would be to have...

• My Cup Runneth Over

  You might have heard that there are a few championship cups at stake this month. And for my money, it is yet to be determined which one will be the most exciting or the most important. The FedEx Cup. I assume that the PGA Tour considered what would happen... Posted Sep 14 2007, 09:02 AM by Sam 'Bogey' Johnson with | with no comments Filed under: Sam Johnson, FedEx Cup, PGA Tour

• Gentlemen Start Your Engines

  By Sam Johnson I am not a NASCAR guy and frankly I wouldn't know the NEXTEL Cup from any other athletic cup, and as of this moment, I feel exactly the same way about the FedEx Cup. Perhaps it is because I have never experienced the excitement of a... Posted Aug 03 2007, 04:57 PM by Sam 'Bogey' Johnson with | with no comments Filed under: Tees2Greens, Sam Johnson, FedEx Cup
