Inspiration among things to be thankful for in 2009
It's the week where we pause for a moment and count our blessings; a week where we begin to take stock of the year and give thanks.

Archive: 2009 season in review, videos, photos, more
The 2009 PGA TOUR season has come to an end. What a year it was. Tiger Woods wins six tournaments and the FedExCup. Phil Mickelson ends an emotional rollercoaster season on a high note. Steve Stricker emerges as a true force on TOUR. The U.S. comes up big at The Presidents Cup and Henrik Stenson comes up big on Sunday at THE PLAYERS Championship. Oh, and did we mention the heart-tugging storylines at the majors?

Friends, TOUR pros raise money for recovering Green
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. -- They wore smiles and green socks on their right leg. They exchanged shots -- verbal and with 7-irons -- and there were a lot more crooked drives to go with the straight talk.

Pick of the prime-time golf on Spain's Costa Brava
The Costa Brava translates into English as "The Wild Coast", an appropriate name for one of Spain's most spectacular shorelines, extending some 80 miles from Blanes (located about 30 miles northeast of Barcelona) following the Mediterranean Sea to the French border. There's an inspiring beauty to this coast that only intensifies, the further north you travel and it changes from rugged rocks and cliffs to isolated sandy bays and coves, then back to impressive rock formations again. Small wonder this has been a summer sunshine retreat for sun-starved, Northern Europeans since they first discovered this paradise a century ago.

Barcelona and the Costa Brava: A winning combo
Thoughts of a golf trip across the Atlantic might suggest 7 days of isolation in the rural hinterlands, away from the civilized world, with nothing but sheep, a few ruined castles, cold rain and a biting wind gusting in from the gray colored sea. For those who enjoy life's finer pleasures, the idea of staying in a succession of cramped Bed & Breakfast accommodations for a week, living on non-descript pub food and warm beer, has no appeal whatsoever, no matter how good the golf courses might be.

For these guys, turkey day means a round of golf
I love Thanksgiving. As a kid my father, brother and I would sneak out and play an early 18 before heading back to the house to attack the bird and watch football. Golf and family, not necessarily in that order, were what Thanksgiving was all about when I was a kid. Some years later, though, Thanksgiving took on a different meaning and it has never been the same since.
