Posted by JP On December 11th, 2009

Posted by JP On October 11th, 2009

On the final day of the 2009 Presidents Cup, the American team's performance was nothing short of dominant. In the end, the U.S. won with 19.5 to the international team's 14.5 points.

Travel: Kapalua Resort, HI

Posted by JP On September 1st, 2009

Tiger Woods is the 2009 FedEx Cup Champion

On 7:20 PM
The 2009 PGA Tour "Playoffs" of the FedEx Cup are all wrapped up. Not surprisingly, Tiger Woods came out on top.

The FedEx Cup season-ending tournament, the Tour Championship, was captured by Phil Mickelson. After strong performances throughout the year despite the news that both his wife and mother would have to fight breast cancer, Mickelson capped his season with an impressive victory.

After a spectacular Sunday, Mickelson finished at -9, which placed Lefty three strokes ahead of Tiger Woods.

Woods completed his FedEx Cup with a second place finish en route to the title.

Kenny Perry's success over the first three days was mitigated by a Sunday meltdown. His 74 was not enough to hold onto the lead, and he dropped to fourth place.

Tiger will take home a $10,000,000 bonus for his FedEx Cup victory.
