8 tournaments this year. 7 top-10 finishes.

First year on the tour, basically right out of high school (age wise) with no college experience. Top 10 in world ranking already etc. etc. She is having an incredible season so far.

Yeah the Canadian media is really dropping the ball on promoting her dominance.

I imagine we'll see a lot more coverage of her leading into the Olympics, but she should be a much bigger story in this country already.

Big day tomorrow for Canadian Golf:

Brooke Henderson is currently T-4th on the LPGA event. She's well back of the leader but is poised to have another top 10. Absolutely amazing.

Brad Fritsch on the Web.com tour is in 1st place going into Sunday. He won last week and has a 2 shot lead with a chance to go back to back. Looks like he got a haircut.

Nick Taylor is T-6th on the Pga Tour

Hopefully we see a great day for Canadian golf tomorrow.

Didnt know where else to put this so i will post it here.

A remarkable article from ESPN on Tiger Woods and how everything unravelled throughout his life after the death of his father. Well written and extremely insightful as to how the most dominant athlete of a generation has all the flaws and vulnerabilities of anyone else regardless of finances or fame.

It's long and in depth at times. How his obsession with the military actually interfered with his career for years along with his inaility to be faithful to his wife...and many other nuggets of interest for both his fans and detractors alike.

Good for Graham, hope he wins this weekend

[Flabbibulin]

Im gonna watch the Raptors game during Matsuyama's backswing.

I think CP should show DeLaet more love. Not sure how though.

Once he shaves, I'll start caring about him.

[killer_carlson]

The beard makes him stand out from the other members on tour. I can see why he's doing it. Unconventional for sure, but he's creating attention for himself.

[CofR]

Ya, I like the beard... Helps him market himself

Looks like that is exactly how he is using it.

Calgary's Roger Sloan with an article on PGATour.com and the Web.com section of the site. He's currently the front page article there.

Spittle T-6 heading into Saturday at Seniors. Ames at T31 but can jump up leaderboard if he improves his scrambling a bit. Ball striking seems good

Brooke back in form and t-10 heading into saturday

Hearn and Hadwin both top 10 on the pgatour event.

[killer_carlson]

Hearn top 25
Hadwin top 50
Taylor top 45 as well

Spittle finishes T-12 at Senior PGA. Good for him.
Ames struggles on sunday with a +5 and drops way back.

And, ho hum, another average day for Brooke. Finishes 6 shots back of the winner. a T-3. Another top 5. Becoming routine....

Seriously though, how can you not be anything but amazed by Brooke Henderson? She will win soon and I think when she does, she'll win a bunch. And I think she'll be winning by enormous margins.

[DoubleK]

Hadwin needs to start finishing ahead of Hearn if he hopes to make the Olympics.

[dash_pinched]

I hope Graham can get his short game figured out in short order.

Tiger officially out of the US Open. At this point I can't see him playing at all this year, no way his game will be anywhere close to good enough coming off the injury.

Brooke Henderson shot 67 today to lead the the first round of the LPGAs second major this year. Also, her lowest 1st round score of the year and only 5th time she was in the 60s in 15 first rounds this year.
