Click here to listen. To look at the golf swings of both Tiger Woods and Charles Barkley, one would have to admit that they are complete opposites from start to finish. Even with a gimp and a grimace at the 2008 U.S. Open, Woods’ fluidity was still beautiful to watch. Barkley’s movements, on the other hand, have been the fodder for everyone from amateurs on YouTube to Tiger Woods himself, who jokingly attempted to copy the infamous swing which has been compared to “a tornado on acid". Charles Barkley has finally had enough ribbing and will allow himself to be guided ...

Click here to listen. Michelle Wie’s high hopes were dashed once again as she struggled against the wake of the tide which Angela Stanford created as she plowed through on the back nine at the SBS Open.

You might even consider her “M.W. version 2.0″, but don’t expect any surprises as she still remains the same golfer but in a shiny new package. Although her parents have allowed her a bit of wiggle room by allowing Wie to live on campus they still maintain ultimate control, living close by and even following her around in a cart three times a week during practice sessions. She alleges that she’s “to the point ...

Mickelson feels good about his ridiculous score. The trick to hitting a mud ball and celebrity quotes.

Phil not only missed the cut but appeared to be in self-denial as well. “It doesn’t feel as far off as the score indicates,” Mickelson said. “I know the score is ridiculous. But it doesn’t feel bad.” One interpretation of the above statement may be that, although Phil struck the ball well, it did not go where it was intended, which caused him to search through the cacti on more than one occasion.
