Vijay Grabs FedEx Cup: Runs and Hides

Vijay Singh won the Deutsche Bank Championship in stunning fashion, shooting a final 63 by making putts covering more distance in one round than the total distance he rolled into the hole in the previous three rounds. A 35 foot birdie followed by a 60 foot birdie and a 37 1/2 foot birdie on the back nine left the remainder of the field so far behind they couldn’t catch his dust.

For the second week in a row, Mr. Singh won a playoff event making it unlikely that anything short of miraculous play will prevent him from claiming the FedEx Cup. If he plays like this next week, the Tour Championship will become the After Thought tournament.. According to the PGA Tour 24 players can still win the Cup, assuming Mr. Singh finishes last in the final two events and some of those players win both tournaments.

Mr. Weir began the day leading the tournament, playing in the final group with Camilo Villegas (73). His record in tournaments which he led or was tied for the lead after 54 holes fell to a less than stellar 1-9. Gotta work on that final round with the lead, but hey, at least he’s had ten chances with the lead.

This was a day when the wind blew and the greens firmed up, there was a chip shot hit by Mr. Weir I believe which made an audible "thunk" when it hit the concrete, er, green. Sergio Garcia actually asked his caddie how he was supposed to stop a ball on one of the greens. Mr. Garcia played again with Mr. Singh in the final round ; “He played amazing. It was awesome,” said Mr. Garcia (72). “I don’t think you guys are going to realize how good that was, because you’re aren’t playing and you don’t know how tough the course was playing. When Vijay plays like that, it’s hard to beat him.” Mr. Garcia only got beat by 9 shots over the 18 holes. Oh and he ranks second in the playoff standings with Mr. Weir in third.

As for his putting struggles, Mr. Singh has heard all the psycho-babble, but decided to quit reading all the negative articles and believe he’s as good as anyone with the putter in his hands. “Whatever they can tell me, it works briefly,” he said. “But it has to come from inside me, and that was the biggest thing. I arrived last week at Ridgewood with a great attitude on the putting green and just kind of felt like I belonged on the greens. That was the biggest thing.” I’m a believer, how else to explain 3 victories in 5 weeks? The man played amazingly for the second week in a row. Impressive.

A reminder from your friends at GolfWRX: Father’s Day is June 21. And as we do every year, we’re rounding up the best gifts for dad.

As we say every year, there’s no better golf-related Father’s Day gift than a round of golf with pops. Be it a country club or your favorite muni, take the time to get together to play 18 if you can.

Let’s get to the gifts.

Ghost Golf Qualifier Diamond Polo

We like the new polos that Ghost is offering, as the fabric and fit are so good. These new Qualifier Collection polos breathe well, are lightweight, stretch with your swing, and of course look great. You can wear them on the course, in the office, or just out at a casual event and they will fit right in.

STR8-Strip Grip Tape Remover

If your dad is an equipment aficionado and tinkers with his clubs, this tool works wonders. Removing grip tape has never been easier, just put a little head on the tape and the STR8-Strip peals it right off the shaft without any damage.

Why Golf: Putting Thing

When it comes to practice, it is good to have a purpose. This “Putting Thing” sure does it. We know from personal experience how challenging it can be and how rewarding it is on the practice green.

OluKai Lae‘ahi Men’s Breathable Slip-On Shoes

Riding to and from the course in style and comfort is always a good thing. If you’re in a hurry, it’s a nice feature to slide into your shoes and get to the tee time. For the post-game shoe, at your locker or while putting your clubs away in the car. Nice to slide into a shoe that looks good anywhere. Pair that with meeting the family for dinner, no need to change!

A little wellness goes a long way. Keeping loose is a good way to go when it comes to the weekend game or treatment during the week. If there is a little ache or pain, the Theragun is there to help out. Help loosen up the back for a pre-game warm-up or cool-down.
