...Times editorial board undoubtedly would argue that it singled out Woods not because he is partly black but because he is the game's No. 1 player, and the second editorial did call upon Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus to protest as well. But asking Woods to lead the charge still struck me as implying that only a Magic Negro could be expected to wave his putter like a magic wand and singlehandedly settle the bitter quarrel between two entrenched camps. The people drafting Woods seem to feel that he has a special obligation to spearhead the assault on discrimination...

Lawns are lush, and the golf course has fairways greener than fresh limes. But according to the widely used Palmer monthly drought index, the region around Durango is suffering the worst drought in the U.S. In June the Missionary Ridge fire, northeast of town, burned 70,000 acres. Only 2.86 in. of rain have fallen all year. And Durango, which since 1877 has had first rights to the water that flows down the Florida River...
