Everyone is on the Tiger Woods' Bandwagon to Win Masters: Fan Reaction (Yahoo! Contributor Network)
Mar 30th 2012, 04:20

Tiger's last trip to Whistling Straits was all smiles in 2004 t win the US Open.

Tiger Woods has always done well in the Arnold Palmer Invitational but his win this year set off an avalanche of high expectations for his return to The Masters at Augusta National this Easter weekend. Once Woods broke through and won his first PGA tournament since 2009, everyone...

Colin Montgomerie thinks Rory McIlroy should spend some time on Augusta's 10th hole (Devil Ball Golf)
Mar 30th 2012, 01:30

No matter what Rory McIlroy does for the rest of his career, he'll always remember the 10th hole at Augusta National. You know the hole ... it ultimately ended up costing him a Green Jacket, and a chance at two majors, when he hooked his tee shot into the trees and carded a triple-bogey on the 430-yard downhill par-4 last year. McIlroy never recovered from the implosion and the rest, as they say, is history. But the great thing about playing August National each year is you always have the chance to exact a bit of revenge on a particular hole. Even if McIlroy doesn't end up winning the Masters, you can be sure that if he makes it through the 10th unscathed over four straight days, he'll consider it a mini victory -- even if he doesn't admit it. And what's the best way to make sure he's ready for the 10th? How about launching as many balls as possible off the tee during practice rounds. At least that's what Colin Montgomerie suggested. Apparently unaware of the fact that he's choked away his fair share of majors, Monty made it clear that if Rory wants to move past last year's collapse, he needs to bring a bucket of balls out to the hole and work things out. "I hope that he hits as many shots off that tee in practice as possible and gets it out of the way," Montgomerie told the Daily Telegraph . "That's the shot everybody will be focusing on come Thursday, and let's hope he gets rid of that. It was just a poor shot at the wrong time. He's a much more mature player than he was a year ago." There's only one problem. Augusta National enforces a strict one ball rule during practice rounds --  even if players choose to ignore it . Ah well, I guess he won't be able to turn the hole into his personal driving range.

New CEO at IBM revives Augusta membership debate (AP)
Mar 30th 2012, 00:10

The appointment of a new chief executive at IBM has revived the debate over Augusta National's all-male membership just one week before the Masters. IBM hired Virginia Rometty as its CEO this year, which could mean a break in recent tradition for either side. The last four CEOs of IBM have been members of Augusta, but the club has never had a female member since it was founded in 1933.

Not all that daring of choices, of course. But then, it's Tiger we're talking here. Via @nikegolf and @darrenrovell .

Naked mini-golf! London putt-putters bare all for charity (Devil Ball Golf)
Mar 29th 2012, 14:31

In Augusta, the azaleas bloom and the pines rustle as gentle piano music guides you down the world's most pristine fairways. In London, a bunch of guys are getting naked and playing golf for charity . More than 30 golfers joined forces at the "Adventure Island" mini-golf course in Southend to raise £3,000 for The Prostate Cancer Charity. (Thankfully, out of public view. That's public with an "L.") Event officials sent the details of the day to the Guinness Book of World Records in an attempt to establish a new world record ... and, apparently, to horrify the Guinness recordkeepers as well. Fair warning: nightmare fuel quotes from event organizer Tracy Jones: "With them having to bend down to retrieve the balls from the holes, it made for some interesting sights." and "It was certainly quite chilly down there this morning and there were quite a lot of goose bumps." AAAAAAGGGHHH. I will now go wash my eyeballs with acid.
