Adam Scott defends his title this week but the Australian has not got off to the greatest of starts after completing his first round in a one over par 73. He currently lies 7 shots off the pace held by trio Andrew Coltart, Miguel Angel Jimenez and Henrik Stenson (a week too flipping late for [...]
Your 15th Club – Bob Rotella – Think like Tiger, Hole ‘em like Harrington
Posted on 21 January 2009.
We all want to be like Tiger Woods. How cool would it be to be a winner like he is, to be able to hit shot after shot consistently like he does, to be able to hole putts under the most intense pressure like he does? It would be pretty damn awesome in my opinion! [...]

Abu Dhabi Update
Posted on 15 January 2009.

Henrik Stenson has made a terrible start but will hopefully find form over the next few days and make it into the places. He has drifted from 8/1 however to 80/1. Of the other mentions. [...]
