I came across this oldie but goodie and had to share with everyone. Mickelson makes an impressive shot to say the least and boy has he put on some LB’s over the years. Enjoy!

I ran across this water hazard recovery video clip today and thought I would share it with everyone. Quite impressive to say the least.

The Golf Channel is reporting that Tiger Woods is done playing golf for the rest of this year. Tiger has decided to have season ending knee surgery just days after winning his 3rd U.S. Open. This means no Tiger in the British Open, PGA Championship, Fed Ex Cup and the Ryder Cup. Ouch! The PGA has to be terrified of what this will do to their TV ratings and sponshorships for upcoming tournaments without Tiger in the mix. It will be interesting to hear if this is 100% true and not a bad rumor, but I doubt the Golf Channel would break this news unless they felt it was air tight.

The 108th U.S. Open has kicked off and in the near future the powerful threesome of Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson and Adam Scott will hit the course. A lot of people are predicting Tiger as the favorite, but I think it’s going to be very difficult to win his first tournament back from surgery. I think there is a real chance for Phil Mickelson to win his first U.S. Open due to the experience he has at Torrey Pines. Phil grew up on this course and has seemed very focused this week during interviews. So what do you think? Tiger, Phil, or the field?

Trevor Immelman won the 73rd annual The Masters today in a convincing manner. Immelman from South Africa led the prestigious major wire-to-wire and won by three strokes over Tiger Woods. Congratulations to Immelman and my heart goes out to CBS because I know they wanted Woods to win the event or at least more competitive.

Tiger Woods today in stunning fashion won his fifth straight PGA title and 7th overall. Tiger was down seven strokes coming into play Saturday, but that is a walk in the park for the 800 pound gorilla that is Tiger Woods. Tiger came into Sunday tied and won the Bay Hill Invitiational on the 18th hole by calmly sinking a 25 foot birdie putt. If you aren’t watching the PGA yet this year I highly suggest you begin now because Tiger is making history each and every tournament he plays.

* Big Ben just hit the mother load with an eight year deal worth $102 million. Roethlisberger joins Peytong Manning, Brett Favre, Carson Palmer, Donovan McNabb and the suspended Vick in the $100 million club for signal callers. Many people are questioning whether the Steelers should extend the wealthiest contract in franchise history, but I personally think Ben deserves every dime. Lets just hope there was a provision in the contract for staying away from motorcycles.

* The Houston Rockets won their 15th game in a row matching a franchise record. That is all well and good, but now that Yao is out of the season the Rockets will be lucky to make it to the playoffs. Remember this statement!

* Michael “The Burner” Turner has signed a lucrative deal with the Atlanta Falcons and should be the starting running back in ‘08 for Hotlanta. Turner has been mired behind Tomlinson for years in San Diego and I fully expect a huge season this coming year. Nice work by the Falcons especially after so many dumb moves in recent months. On a side note Warrick Dunn immediately asked for a release due to this acquisition.

* Kobe dropped 52 yesterday in a win over the Dallas Mavericks. The Lakers only lost TWO games in all of February and are a legitimate threat to win it all this year.

* Ernie Els won the Honda Classic yesterday ending a four-year winless drought. Whoopty do! Els is no longer a top player in the game and is not competition for Tiger Woods.

Natalie gave it her all this past weekend in the ADT Championship which is the last tournament of the year in the LPGA. Unfortunately in the end SportsUnderground.com’s favorite golfer lost by two strokes to the number one player in the LPGA Laurena Ochoa. Natalie really improved her game this year and we expect BIG things from her next year.

It’s the final LPGA event of the year so we thought we should give our girl one final shout out for 2007. Natalie is competing this weekend in the ADT Championship at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Fla. The tournament has the largest purse in LPGA history with a million dollar payday. We wish you all the luck Natalie and make you stretch out good.

The title is not a typo so you are reading it correctly. The PGA unveiled today that Justin Timberlake will serve as host of its Las Vegas event in 2008. Justin is the 14th celebrity to host an official tournament joining others like Dean Martin, Andy Williams, Ed McMahon, Frank Sinatra, Jackie Gleason and others. The event will be held Oct. 13-19, 2008 and Timberlake will play in the celebrity pro-am and hold a concert that week. Timberlake should play well in the pro-am event considering he is a 6 handicap. I can assure you there will be more hot a$$ at this PGA event than any other one the entire year!
