The 2007 PGA tour thread

Since there's so little PGA talk on this board, I figured we could have one thread for PGA Tour info for 2007.

The FedEx Cup is new to the PGA this year. I have yet to read about and understand the details about the FedEx Cup, but there is info in the link.

Here is the schedule for January per the PGA Tour website.

His dad died, he took some time off, stumbled on his return in his first tournament, then kicked everyone's ass the rest of the year.

I don't think having a kid will affect him too much.

BTW, he won't be playing in the MBC.

Here's the field for the MBC:

Stephen Ames......J.J. Henry.........Corey Pavin
Stuart Appleby....Tim Herron.........Carl Pettersson
Eric Axley........J.B. Holmes........John Rollins
Aaron Baddeley....Trevor Immelman....Rory Sabbatini

Looks like no 4th consecutive win for Appleby and Singh will try to hang on to make up for his playoff loss last year.

Probably my favorite course of all I have played...

Woods wins his (personal record) seventh in a row at the Buick Invitational.

A few rookies were gunning for first but fell apart down the stretch.
