Greetings from Dave
Is there any way back for Tiger?
Woods' game is in a shambles. He shot 82 two weekends ago at the Phoenix Open. This was his worst professional round of his career in which he missed the cut. He then withdrew from the Farmers Insurance Open last weekend after 12 holes due to a back injury. It's hard to see him returning to his dominant position at the top after all these setbacks. What can he do to end the bad performances?

Woodlands Restaurant opens its doors to the public for the first time on Valentines Day and we would like to offer all our members, both Golf and Health Club, a 5% discount if they dine in our restaurant. I’m sure many of you have already seen the menu that Chef has lovingly put together and we have an excellent wine list to compliment any dish on the menu. Just show your levy card to the waiting staff when you ask for your bill and they will apply the member discount. Payment by Levy Card is not available. We look forward to seeing many familiar faces enjoying our new venture.

Carrying a golf bag is madness. It's bad for your health and bad for your golf game. That's the opinion of leading experts, including Ernie Els' fitness coach and a leading Harley Street chiropractor.
Another expert says that carrying a golf bag does 'absolutely nothing' for your golf game and in fact it 'does quite the opposite'. As for pulling a golf trolley it can be harmful to your body.
