...professional victory, in 1998, and his second two years later, he recorded nine runner-up finishes. When he finally did break through in a major championship, with a victory in a playoff of the British Open last year at Carnoustie, it was only after recovering from a disastrous double bogey on the final hole of regulation play...
...five players to eagle in the tournament and the only in round three. Mayer’s rounds displayed more consistency. Shooting even par on day one—three birdies and three bogies—Mayer set the bar for the team. A rough start to round two, bogeying five of the first six holes, then double bogeying the 8th was balanced by an uneventful back nine, where Mayer shot par on eight of the final nine holes. Sunday, a problematic day for the entire field, saw Mayer have a consistent front nine before hitting trouble...
...others, treating world leaders with the bruising directness he meted out to his own colleagues. Depicted in the Oscar-winning film The Queen as a boorish bully and in numerous TV and stage satires as the evil genius controlling Blair, Campbell has become, in his own words, "a bogey figure for the media." And now here he is, on his neat patio, dispensing tea and affability. Roses are in bloom and his tiny mother calls cheerily from the kitchen. The family spaniel nestles at Campbell's feet, regarding her master with the sappy devotion critics say Blair lavished on President...
...holes, there are spots where no matter how gently you put your ball down, it will start to roll. And roll--right into a bunker like Big Mouth. And it's endlessly frustrating watching a putt glide toward the hole before making an abrupt left turn, to certain triple bogey.

"You're going to get putts that will make guys look like dumbbells," says NBC analyst Johnny Miller...
Bivens' approach has not been bogey-free. Since her arrival, seven members of her senior staff have resigned or been fired, including three top executives who walked the same day. Her relationship with the press has been rocky at best. To protect the LPGA's content, Bivens distributed press credentials that tried to limit the use of photos by media organizations. Some refused to sign up. One result: the 2006 Fields Open in Hawaii was virtually blacked out by the media. The differences have since been worked out, but Bivens hasn't really budged. She says she's standing firm...
