Rob CarrTiger Woods won't be in action again this weekend, but for a second consecutive Sunday golf fans can get their Tiger fix by tuning into CBS. A week after the network re-aired Woods' 2019 Masters win with added commentary from the 15-time major champ, a new special called “Tiger Tales” will debut. Eat your heart out, Tiger King.

The one-hour program presented by Genesis will feature a series of “light-hearted stories hope to shed a new light on the player who has dominated PGA TOUR telecasts for the past two decades,” according to PGATour.com. These animated stories will come from fellow tour pros—and if they're all as good as the one told by Justin Thomas, viewers are in for a treat. (International viewers can watch on GOLFTV beginning Monday, April 20.)
Here's JT talking about the first time he played “home run derby” with Woods and his son, Charlie. In Tiger's living room. That's right,..

Marion Hollins is the latest inductee for the World Golf Hall of Fame

The coronavirus pandemic has hit a giant pause button on fans being able to watch golf on TV, and in some cases, even kept people off courses. But while we hunker down and hope for a speedy return to normalcy, we can also use this time as an opportunity to learn more about the game we love. Here’s our latest installment of “Did you know?”
Andrew Magee was a three-time All-American at Oklahoma and a four-time winner on the PGA Tour, but he'll forever be known for the one-time thing he did nearly two decades ago. That's because Magee's hole-in-one at the 2001 Phoenix Open remains the lone ace on a par 4 in PGA Tour history. And boy, was it a doozy.
DID YOU KNOW: There have been five holes-in-one on par 5s
As Magee tells it, he was a little ticked after making bogey on the easy par-5 15th at TPC Scottsdale, but he bounced back by draining a long birdie on the famed par-3 16th—you know, the one with all the drunk fans. Stepping to the tee on No. 17, he was still a bit steame..

European Tour golf tournaments canceled, postponed

Ethan MillerThe unprecedented, historic levels of unemployment continue to rise, as the news came out Thursday that 22 million Americans have now filed for unemployment in the past four weeks. Our thoughts are all with all those struggling right now.
You might not have considered professional gamblers among those who are struggling, but when you think about it, it makes sense. Sports have been paused for more than a month now, so those who make a living by making wagers in a Nevada sportsbook are unable to do so. Though normally professional gamblers would not be among those eligible for unemployment, all Nevada casinos are closed, and now pro gamblers are pushing to also be able to file, according to MarketWatch.

Two days after Russell Wilson and Ciara successfully pulled off a baby gender reveal (Congrats, it's a boy! You had a 50-50 chance!), a much less famous couple went viral for theirs. And not for a good reason.
These (sometimes) fun, but (extremely) unnecessary and dangerous celebrations have caused wildfires, plane crashes, and even deaths in recent years. It's gotten to the point where we praise couples like Russell and Ciara or the Garcias in golf for having one without a serious injury.

We can't say the same for the following mystery couple, who went with the ol exploding-ball-off-a-tee trick. And with the husband holding a bat, and his wife standing about two feet away, what could go wrong?!

Raised cups have become the norm at golf courses around the country—golf courses still open, that is—during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. But one Georgia track has created an ingenious way to keep their holes as is and keep down coronavirus spread at the same time.

Very cool. Looks like someone was paying attention in shop class.
Of course, some golfers are liking the raised cups—like longtime PGA Tour caddie Heath Holt, who banged his way to a “59” recently. And the USGA has even relaxed its rules to allow scores shot on courses taking coronavirus measures to still count for handicap purposes.
But even with the USGA's leniency, the raised cups have put a damper on holes-in-one, preventing many (not by me, obviously) from happening. And you can't count one that ricochets off the cup from..
