New Equipment: Wedge-a-palooza
And expect to see many more wedges hitting pro shop aisles in the coming weeks, leading up to the new groove rules for 2010. The 2010 groove specs are leading to a wedge glut for two reasons:
1. Obviously, companies are creating new wedges that conform to the new rules. All wedges manufactured must conform to the new specs after Jan. 1, 2011, and companies are rolling out those conforming wedges now with the rules set to take effect on Jan. 1, 2010.
2. But: Those new rules will affect only a tiny fraction of golfers in 2010; most recreational golfers won't be required to use post-2010 grooves for handicap rounds until 2024 at the earliest. And so manufacturers are pushing a lot of pre-2010 groove designs into the market now, too. The message to golfers: Get 'em while you can, because we can't make 'em after 2010 even though you can play them until 2024.
Many of the wedges that do conform to the 2010 rules are showing up with innovations, too, designed to minimize the loss of spin those new grooves will cause. Some companies are roughening the face of their wedges. In our latest new equipment gallery, Cleveland and Feel both take that approach. With the TaylorMade wedge featured, golfers can replace the face of the wedge without having to buy a new club. Worried about the grooves becoming worn and less effective? Remove the face and replace it with a fresh one.
View the new equipment gallery
New Equipment: Wedge-a-palooza originally appeared on About.com Golf on Friday, November 20th, 2009 at 12:12:56.
There are 10 new pieces of golf equipment featured in our latest new equipment gallery, and five of them are wedges. TaylorMade, Cleveland, Callaway, Miura and Feel all have new wedges hitting the market. Also included in the roundup are Cleveland irons, Odyssey putters, Rife putters, a women's set from Callaway and a premium Japanese shaft. View the gallery to read about each.
Nickent Golf Out of Business
I liked a lot of Nickent's clubs, particularly the drivers it was making in the 2003-2005 range, along with its fairways and hybrids. The Pipe putter drew some modest attention, too. The company did a lot of growing in that period and up through 2007, including hiring tour players and getting quite of a few of its hybrids into play on the Nationwide, LPGA and Champions tours.
What happened? Yasuda explains:
... But neither its driver, nor the product category as a whole, captured much consumer interest. Then, in the second half of 2008, the economy tanked. The combination proved fatal for Nickent. Nickent Golf Out of Business originally appeared on About.com Golf on Thursday, November 19th, 2009 at 23:13:43.
Nickent Golf is out of business. Golfweek's Gene Yasuda reported today that Nickent laid off the last 22 of its employees this week and is preparing to liquidate.The equipment maker's fortunes turned in early 2008 when it made an ill-fated gamble on the nascent adjustable-driver market. Hoping to make inroads into the driver category, Nickent pushed aggressively to be among the first to unveil a conforming driver that could easily swap shafts for immediate play.
Wie Withdraws from Tour Championship with Ankle Injury
Wie withdrew from the season-ending LPGA Tour Championship in Houston today following an even-par 72 in the first round, citing a sprained ankle. Wie had the ankle heavily wrapped last week during her victory, and while didn't do a lot of obvious limping in Mexico there were times when it was obvious the ankle bothered her.
Today, Wie was 3-under par through 12 holes of the very windy afternoon session before hurting the ankle again on the 13th tee. She limped down the stretch - figuratively, losing three strokes to finish at even; and literally, hobbling quite noticeably most of the remainder of the round.
Wie originally tweaked the ankle during the Solheim Cup, then re-injured it a few weeks later during another event. It wasn't an impediment to Wie last week at the Lorena Ochoa Invitational, but in Houston today she was clearly in pain in the latter part of her first round.
The Dubai Ladies Masters, Dec. 9-12, is the next event on Wie's schedule. Stay tuned to see if she goes through with the LET tournament or shuts it down for the year.
Golfweek's Beth Ann Baldry reported that Wie will have an MRI, and quoted Wie saying, "I want to make sure that I'm being smart with it, so I will return home to have it looked at by my doctors and follow their advice for treatment." Wie Withdraws from Tour Championship with Ankle Injury originally appeared on About.com Golf on Thursday, November 19th, 2009 at 19:48:01.
Michelle Wie's victory in Mexico last week was a major does of good news for the LPGA. And with the LPGA's luck in 2009, that meant some bad news had to be right around the corner.
Wie's Win Doubles Golf Channel Ratings
Was Wie's ability to draw attention, to draw crowds, to draw coverage, disappearing? Had her cachet been squandered? I wondered, too, when on Monday morning my local newspaper didn't even give Wie's victory a separate story; that paper buried it in a briefs package.
Whoops.
Yes, Michelle Wie still has pull. I have firsthand knowledge of this because traffic doubled after Wie's victory last Sunday. And today, the Golf Channel announced that its ratings doubled during the final round of the Lorena Ochoa Invitational.
The Golf Channel's final-round coverage drew a 0.72 rating, which doesn't sound like much but is double "the typical final-round ratings for LPGA Tour events on Golf Channel in 2009," the network said. It's also a 60-percent increase over the final round of the 2008 Lorena Ochoa Invitational.
And it's the second highest-rated LPGA broadcast of 2009, behind only the final day of the Solheim Cup.
Oh, one more thing: Wie's win also doubled the ratings of the PGA Tour's Children's Miracle Network Classic final round on the Golf Channel. The Disney tournament received a 0.36 rating.
If you've ever had trouble understanding why so many people believe Wie is so important to the LPGA's future, well, now you know. Wie's Win Doubles Golf Channel Ratings originally appeared on About.com Golf on Thursday, November 19th, 2009 at 10:21:57.
Michelle Wie still has pull. That was something I was beginning to wonder about during the first round of the Lorena Ochoa Invitational last week: Despite being on the leaderboard through much of the Golf Channel's first-round coverage, Wie didn't get much TV time. That was a major change from a few years ago when, as with Tiger Woods on the PGA Tour, Wie would sometimes dominate coverage whether she was threatening the lead or not.
24 Tourneys on 2010 LPGA Schedule
The post-Bivens LPGA leadership has done a good job salvaging - and "salvage" is the right word - a schedule for 2010 that includes 24 tournaments. Thirty-four were played in 2007, 31 were scheduled for 2009 but only 27 tournaments surived to actually be played this year.
So 24 continues that downward trend. But a couple months back making it to 20 appeared doubtful.
Among returning events, six cut their purses:
Only six tournaments are on the schedule prior to June, while nine are scheduled in September or later. That's backwards - when American football season starts, golf's audience quickly shrinks. But at least the LPGA does have something close to a full schedule in June and July, when the golf audience is the largest in the U.S.
More searching for bright spots: It's possible the LPGA could add another couple events before the 2010 season gets under way. There are tournaments and sponsors the tour is known to have been negotiating with who do not appear on the 2010 schedule; the tour isn't going to just give up now that a schedule announcement has been released. It will keep talking to any interested parties. We can hope, at least, that those talks might lead to another event or two. Another win by Michelle Wie this week - or even one in December at the LET's Dubai Ladies Masters - would be a great help. 24 Tourneys on 2010 LPGA Schedule originally appeared on About.com Golf on Wednesday, November 18th, 2009 at 11:51:51.
The best thing that can be said about the 2010 LPGA Tour schedule, announced Wednesday morning, is that it's not as bad as it could have been. It's not as bad as it appeared it might be a couple months ago, while Carolyn Bivens was still on the job as commissioner.
Searching for silver linings: Five returning events did increase their purses, including the Women's British Open, which goes from $2.2M to $2.5M; and the LPGA Tour Championship, from $1.5M to $2.0M. Overall, with fewer tournaments scheduled (and some payouts not yet determined), there is significantly less money up for grabs in the 2010 schedule compared to 2009.
PGA Tour Q-School Continues This Week
Major-championship winner Shaun Micheel is among those playing, as is double-heart transplant patient Erik Compton. Justin Peters, the winner of the very first Big Break, is still chasing his big break; and former phenom Ty Tryon continues his chase, as well.
There are plenty of players in the second-stage qualifiers who have PGA Tour experience, including some former winners. Below are the six locations of this week's qualifiers, along with some of the most recognizable names at each site. Click on the location to view the full fields for each.
PGA Tour Q-School Continues This Week originally appeared on About.com Golf on Tuesday, November 17th, 2009 at 10:57:46.
Beginning Wednesday (Nov. 18) and continuing through Saturday (Nov. 21), six second-stage qualifiers take place this week on the road to PGA Tour Q-School finals.
Money-List Reckoning on the PGA Tour
Of course, that means a couple other golfers got bumped out of the Top 125.
First, the good news: Nicholas Thompson and Jimmy Walker, who entered the Children's Miracle Network at Nos. 132 and 130, respectively, moved up to Nos. 123 and 125. Thompson (older brother of teen phenom Alexis Thompson) did so by carding a final-round 66 and moving up to a tie for 11th at the Disney.
Walker, a player of great potential whose career has been stymied by injuries, made it a little more interesting. He double-bogied the 17th and hit a wayward approach on the 18th, but got up-and-down for par to close with a 69. That left him tied for 15th and earning just enough money to get that last, fully exempt 125th spot.
Now, the bad news: Robert Garrigus and David Duval, who entered the Children's Miracle Network at Nos. 123 and 125, respectively, dropped to Nos. 127 and 130. Both players missed the cut at Disney.
Here are the players who just missed, finishing 126th through 135th on the money list:
126. Will MacKenzie, $659,686
There are many more familiar names farther down the list: Carl Petterson, Stuart Appleby, Tom Lehman, Tommy Armour III, Rocco Mediate, Corey Pavin, Dean Wilson, Jason Gore to name a few. Many of the players outside the Top 125 will play in the Q-School finals next month. A few, like Lehman, may decide to focus on the Champions Tour. And some may decide that different combinations of status - past-champions status, partial status for finishing between 126 and 150 - combined with possible sponsor exemptions will get them into enough events in 2010 to skip Q-School.

The 2009 PGA Tour season is over after Stephen Ames' playoff victory at the Children's Miracle Network Classic. But Ames wasn't the only winner - a couple golfers did well enough at the Disney to jump inside the Top 125 on the money list, securing their tour cards for 2010.
127. Robert Garrigus, $657,204

Finally: Michelle Wie Is a Winner on the LPGA Tour
At lot of people, myself included, would have said that. But after six years of tantalizing promise - Wie burst on the scene by playing in the final pairing of an LPGA major at age 13 in 2003; after six years of often spectacular golf and sometimes ugly incidents; after six years of multiple near-misses and one season (2007) of total failure; after all the hype and all the fame and after the Solheim Cup glory of earlier this year, Michelle Wie is a winner on the LPGA Tour (view photos from the win).
Finally. And it's about time.
Wie held off a stellar leaderboard on Sunday to win the Lorena Ochoa Invitational in Guadalajara, Mexico, by two strokes. She carded a final-round 69 to finish at 13-under, outduelling runner-up Paula Creamer (70), at 11-under; and Morgan Pressel (67), Jiyai Shin (71) and Cristie Kerr (72), who finished tied for third at 10-under. Read more... Finally: Michelle Wie Is a Winner on the LPGA Tour originally appeared on About.com Golf on Sunday, November 15th, 2009 at 17:43:39.
During the Golf Channel's third-round coverage of the Lorena Ochoa Invitational on Saturday, announcer Charlie Rymer recalled the first time he saw Michelle Wie play golf. It was the 2004 Sony Open - the PGA Tour Sony Open - when Wie was 14 years old. She shot 72-68, finished even par and missed the cut by a stroke. A 14-year-old girl, playing from the tips, under PGA Tour conditions. "If you had told after that that it would be 2009 and Michelle Wie still wouldn't have a win on the LPGA Tour, I'd have said you were crazy," Rymer said.
Woods Finishes Off Australian Masters Victory
The win is the 93rd total for Woods as a professional, counting both his PGA Tour victories (71) and international tournaments. And Woods has now fulfilled a goal to win on every continent - at least every continent on which golf is played. He said on Sunday:
Woods' final tournament of the year will be his own, the Chevron World Challenge Dec. 3-6. For more on the Australian Masters - full scores, news - visit the tournament's official Web site.
Woods Finishes Off Australian Masters Victory originally appeared on About.com Golf on Sunday, November 15th, 2009 at 08:55:02.
The Melbourne bookie who offered, after the second round of the 2009 Australian Masters, to go ahead and pay off everyone who had bet on Tiger Woods to win turns out not to have been jumping the gun. Woods closed out that victory on Sunday. He didn't run away with it, but he did win comfortably."I have never won down here, so now I've won on every continent, which is nice, except for Antarctica."
Some wealthy entrepreneur out there is probably already looking into a snow golf tournament in Antarctica.
