...awards, voted on by industry pros, were handed out with the skew towards the mainstream that the Eisner's are known for. A complete list of winners can be found here. However, there were two highlights of the presentations. The "Talent Deserving of Wider Recognition" award went, most appropriately, to Jason Shiga.

Sörenstam, who last year won 13 titles, made her fairway debut on Thursday with a one-over-par 71. But despite best wishes from pros, fans and even U.S. President George W. Bush, Sörenstam's 74 on the second day of play wasn't enough for her to make the cut. She ended up tied for 96th place out of 111 players after the two rounds. "I'm glad...
