AUGUSTA, Ga. – Perfection isn’t so much a pursuit at Augusta National Golf Club as it is a practice. So there remains the possibility that, come Thursday morning, the azaleas, long since the victims of an early spring, will somehow bloom fresh. The trees felled by a violent storm Tuesday night will somehow re-root themselves.

Rohrer said he would apologize to the Masters family. Eventually, Rohrer called Masters’s father, mother, sister and ex-wife and offered each his apologies. He also arranged to have Masters’s truck towed back to Fredericksburg, where Masters’s ex-wife and stepdaughter, the executors of his estate, live.

The chief then declined to share any information with them about the shooting, Barrie Masters said. Read full article > >

Four days after he limped around TPC Sawgrass and pulled out of The Players Championship with left leg injuries , Tiger Woods announced Monday evening that he is “likely” to play in next month’s U.S. Open at Congressional Country Club in Bethesda, though he described the situation as “week-to-week” and offered no definitive timetable for a return. Woods said it is unlikely he’ll play any competitive golf before the June 16-19 Open, leaving him with just nine holes in tournament play since the Masters — a period of 66 days — a significant layoff for a player who insists some of his recent struggles are due to the fact that he has played so infrequently.
