No more real golf Let's all just scratch Valderrama off our scorecards, shall we? As the recent WGC American Express Championship proved, it's not a great golf course. The 17th hole, where balls keep rolling off the green into the lake, is a travesty. That green really does belong on a miniature-golf course... |

Scouting the 2003 U.S. Open The 2003 U.S. Open isn't going to resemble the '02 Open in any way, shape or form. Olympic Fields Country Club's North Course, site of next year's Open, is nothing like Bethpage's brutal Black Course. |

Having a grand old time in Scotland One of the quaint things about the British Open is that so many of the Americans who attend it -- including players, caddies, writers, coaches and agents -- manage to sneak in a few rounds of golf while they're there. |

The Poor Man's Pebble Beach I was at the Pacific Grove municipal course on Monday, which is nothing like teeing it up at Pebble Beach. Luckily, the price is about $300 lighter, and America's most fun muni (par-70, 5,732 yards from the back tees) is known as the Poor Man's Pebble Beach... |

Fond memories of the Beach I already know the course well enough, having strolled it a couple of times a week for the past 10 years. You see, when I have trouble falling asleep I simply close my eyes and play Pebble Beach in my mind. I find this is so relaxing that I rarely make it to the back nine.... |
