<\/p>\n\ud83c\udfcc\ud83c\udffd\u00a0Tiger Woods was arrested and charged with DUI near his home in Jupiter, Florida. He refused to take a urine test and he was found with two pills of hydrocodone, an opioid painkiller he has taken for years. It\u2019s his second DUI charge, the first coming in 2017, which he wound up pleading guilty to reckless driving. What punishment does he deserve?<\/p>\n

\ud83c\udfcc\ud83c\udffd\u00a0Woods was given permission to leave the country for a drug treatment program, presumably out of sight of prying eyes. Is this simply to try to stay out of jail or is he really serious about getting help this time?<\/p>\n
\ud83c\udfcc\ud83c\udffd\u00a0Given the present circumstances, Woods turned down an offer from the PGA of America to captain the U.S. team in the 2027 Ryder Cup. Obvious move? If not him, then who?<\/p>\n
\ud83c\udfcc\ud83c\udffd\u00a0Gary Woodland\u2019s emotional victory Texas Children\u2019s Houston Open was his fifth PGA Tour title and his first since brain surgery in 2023 and his recent admission that he suffers from PTSD as a result of the surgery. Is there a better story in golf this year?<\/p>\n
\ud83c\udfcc\ud83c\udffd\u00a0Masters: Ludvig Aberg or Tommy Fleetwood? Rory McIlroy or Scottie Scheffler? Xander Schauffele or Robert McIntyre?<\/p>\n
\ud83c\udfcc\ud83c\udffd\u00a0Phil Mickelson announced he won\u2019t compete in the Masters because of a family health issue that has also taken him away from LIV Golf. It\u2019s the first time since 1994 that both Woods and Mickelson haven\u2019t played in the Masters. Has the game passed them by?<\/p>\n
\ud83c\udfcc\ud83c\udffd\u00a0Asterisk Talley, now a 17-year-old high schooler, led after two rounds of the Augusta National Women\u2019s Amateur after being runner-up a year ago. Besides having the current best first name in golf, is she the next big thing?<\/p>\n
\ud83c\udfcc\ud83c\udffd\u00a0Have you ever seen a Tour player since Seve Ballesteros hit shots as far offline than Jordan Spieth does? When will the media \u2014 especially television \u2014 stop making excuses for him?<\/p>\n
\ud83c\udfcc\ud83c\udffd\u00a0Season 4 of \u201cFull Swing\u201d debuts on Netflix April 17 with four episodes. Will you watch? Have you even seen the other three seasons?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\ud83c\udfcc\ud83c\udffd\u00a0Tiger Woods was arrested and charged with DUI near his home in Jupiter, Florida.
