May 14, 2012 Ryan Berenz

Bill Clinton joins David Feherty for an interview on GOLF CHANNEL’s Feherty on Monday, May 14, at 10pm ET. Former president Bill Clinton joins David Feherty on Monday, May 14, at 10pm ET for an interview on GOLF CHANNEL’s Feherty. “I absolutely love the man,” Feherty told us in an interview earlier this year. “I’ve met him before. I would call myself very liberal in social terms and only conservative in a couple of areas: homeland defense and the military, that’s about it. I’m really looking forward to that. He’s just such a likable person. And I think a lot […]

2012 PLAYERS Championship TV schedule

May 10, 2012 Ryan Berenz

It’s golf’s unofficial fifth major, featuring one of the sport’s most recognizable holes, and it gets going today at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla., with THE PLAYERS Championship. That hole, of course, is the notorious No. 17 island green (pictured above), which has ruined more than a few players’ games over the years. K.J. Choi managed to negotiate it successfully last year in a playoff with David Toms, winning by a single stroke after Toms blew a 3 1/2-foot par putt. Rory McIlroy, Luke Donald, Lee Westwood, Hunter Mahan, Steve Stricker, Tiger Woods and Rickie Fowler are among […]

McIlroy looks to challenge Woods, Mickelson at Masters

April 4, 2012 Tom Comi

Pop Quiz: How many golfers not named Tiger Woods or Phil Mickelson have won the Masters since 2000? Answer: If you said five, I award you a ceremonious golf clap. With that in mind, it stands to reason that any talk about who the favorites are to don the prestigious green jacket early Sunday evening has to start with Woods (four titles) and Mickelson (three). It also explains why VegasInsider.com has pegged them as 4:1 and 8:1 favorites, respectively, this week. But before we start handing out premature trophies for a tournament that doesn’t get underway until tomorrow (click here […]

“Feherty” returns for Season 2 on GOLF CHANNEL

February 20, 2012 Ryan Berenz

If getting fired was David Feherty’s goal, then his show on GOLF CHANNEL is a colossal failure. “I’ve been in TV now nearly 16 years, and people say, ‘What are your ambitions?’ And I say, ‘I just try to go out every day and try to get fired,’” Feherty tells me. “So far, no one takes me seriously enough to actually get fired, you know?” Not only is his show returning for another season, but it’s getting bigger, too. Season 2 of Feherty will expand to 18 hourlong episodes and moves to Mondays beginning Feb. 27 at 10pm ET. Last […]

Pro golfers, celebrities come together for AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am

February 9, 2012 Tom Comi

If you are a fan of celebrities and golf, then the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am was tailor-made — no pun intended — for you. Kicking off today from Pebble Beach, Calif., the event will treat Golf Channel and CBS viewers to some great links and star sightings over the next four days. Bill Murray and D.A. Points will be back to defend their title of a year ago when they shot 35 under-par. And while things are all business in terms of wanting to win the event, it’s Murray’s antics and jokes — and the appearances by the non-golf […]
