Do you think the new era in golf is coming


Do you think the new era in golf is coming

Tigers Woods’ struggles and the emergence of young players on the PGA Tour might signal a new era in golf.Green’s always been the color in play at the Masters: the lovely Augusta National course, of course, the hats crowning the caddie uniforms and the winner’s jacket, worn at the only place outside of the 1970s such a garment can cause envy.And green might also describe the verdant nature of this year’s winner. The flow of this year’s PGA Tour says look for someone beginning to flower into possible greatness.Anthony Kim? Martin Laird? One Japanese Golfer Donate For Disaster Sufferers  of the Molinari brothers, Edoardo or Francesco? Forget the old Tiger and Phil vs. the field Augusta wager. Now, under 30 vs. eligible to apply for midlife crisis seems a fairer bet going into the Masters. “I guess by age we are younger, but I don’t read too much into it,” Kim, 25, said last week.The PGA Tour, for which Tiger Woods’ popularity has brought monetary benefits, realizes it’s getting late in the day for those who dominated the 2000s. PGATour.com devotes one section to establishment vs. new breed. Going into this week’s Shell Houston Open, the old guard led 6-5.The establishment’s holding its ground by that measure only because the site editors choose only one representative from each group for each event, i.e. Fred Couples, 51, vs. Gary Woodland, 26, this week. Look at this year’s winners and see the whippersnappers around for the end of the event long after their elders have gone home.
