Tigers Woods is once again dominating the field in yet another PGA event. At the WGC American Express Championship in Chandler’s Cross England Tiger Woods shot a 63 first round and followed that up with a 64 second round.

Tiger Woods sits at 15 under par, 5 ahead of the next closest guys, David Howell, Stewart Cink, and Jim Furyk. This is it, the best golfers in the world come together, and Tiger is spanking them around.

Also of note is Vijay Singh who is 21 shots off the lead and Ernie Els, who lives not far from Chandler’s Cross, is eight behind the storming Woods.

Following a short stint across the pond trying to bring a Ryder Cup victory to the Americans Tiger Woods has resumed his dominance over the rest of the field.

This years WGC includs a stellar field with Jim furyk, Sergio Garcia coming off a great Ryder Cup performance, Luke Donald, Vijay Singh who started the tournament with a 2 over after 1 round, and a host of other great players who are all chasing the steam rolling Tiger Woods.

Here’s a great little clip I found on Youtube.com. Swing vision, the real steady and slowed down sing analysis that CBS integrates into it’s broadcast of most PGA tour events has a great little clip of Tiger Woods driving the ball off the tee. Enjoy!

Team Europe handed the US Team most convincing defeat Sunday as they hand the US team an 18 1/2 – 9 1/2 victory. That victory matched the blow out dealt to the US team in 2004 where the Europeans were victorious in convincing fashion.

The victory came with a few quirks though. Tiger Woods, who played magnificent;y during his matches was on the seventh green, just beyond the water when his caddie, Steve Williams decided to wash his 9 iron in the pond just shy of where the two were standing. Steve slipped and in went his 9 iron. The amusing thing was Williams looked back at Woods in a way that seemed as though Wiliams was just brushing off what happened. You just dropped the number one players 9 iron in the water!

Woods appeared to shrug it off and laugh a bit, which was all they could do. A diver later retrieved the club and returned it to it’s rightful owner on number 15.

Also interesting on the final day was the fact that the European team could have won in record fashion, breaking their 2004 mark. However in what would become a deciding gentlemenly gesture, Paul McGinley gave American J.J. Henry a 25 foot putt on the 18th hole which allowed the Americans an extra half point.

Although there was still players out on the course, the European team had the cup won and McGinley thought it the right thing to do. He probably will be getting some crap for that but that doesn’t erase the fact that those guys spanked the Americans.

Tiger Woods’ wife was attacked yesterday by a Dublin magazine called the Dubliner. His wife, Elin Woods, and pretty much every other American golfers wife was attacked by the magazine saying they “cannot keep their clothes on in public,”.

About Mrs. Woods the paper claims she can be seen “in a variety of sweaty poses on porn sites across the web.”

These false claims have enraged Tiger Woods as well as the rest of the US Ryder Cup team. With Tiger Woods playing some of the best golf in the world right now, you have to wonder if making him mad is the best idea right now.

You can read more about what was said in the article and what Tiger Woods said at ESPN.com – COLUMNIST – Wojciechowski: Woods’ anger will lead to U.S. victory

Tiger Woods was down by three strokes to Vijay Singh coming into the final round of the Deutsche Bank Championship. Vijay, who had just shot a course record, tour record, in the rain the day before. Vijay who is on any given day fully capable of challenging Tiger Woods in a golf match.

But the day belonged to Tiger, Tiger woods would shoot an 8 under 63 to top Vijay by three strokes in the tournament and leave the rest of the field where he’s been leaving them over the past few weeks, in the dust and just scraping for the leaderboard and a share of the money.

Tiger Woods showed us that Sunday’s round was just a fluke, he came out blazing and never looked back, playing the first 7 hole sin 6 under par. He was smashing second shots on par 5’s within 10 feet, like the 3 wood he dropped just 10 feet from the hole while he was 266 yards out. Most people cower in the corner while standing over a shot like that.

Tiger Woods is on a role, we can’t wait to see how he fairs in the next tournament and will be sure to keep you up to date.
