There is a lot of depth on the PGA Tour and world golf stage. Not too long ago Horschel was toiling on the minor tours, finding it difficult to make the jump from outstanding collegiate player to the major leagues of golf. But anyone who watched him play back then knew he was a “can’t miss” prospect who would eventually succeed. He certainly got good at the right time this year for the most lucrative payday a golfer can have in all the world of golf.

Billy Horschel: From golfing rags to riches

Naturally as an American I am pulling for our guys to reverse recent misfortunes in Ryder Cup play, but I don’t see it happening this year. The Euros should prevail riding on the strength of world golf #1 Rory McIlroy. More depth on the home team’s roster.

Ryder Cup week could have ramifications

I thought Badds would possibly go on to take a major or two in the States but I think some swing changes have derailed his journey a bit. Always a gifted putter he is regarded by many as a streaky-type player. Still making a comfortable living plying his craft on the PGA Tour with his home base in Arizona.

Johnny Football could be a bust but I guess the jury is still out. I tend to cut rookies some slack, however, this guy was probably selected to sell tickets. If he doesn’t see action his value is certainly negated. I’m sure the Brown will try to inject him in the offense here and there with trick plays like last week since he is not their starter this season. The jump from college to pros is a big step for some guys.

What a wonderful mare Black Caviar was! I’m sure people the world over will be following all of her babies just like they are doing with recent American superstars Zenyatta and Rachel Alexandra.
