Sergio Garcia wins The Players championship -- the biggest victory of his career -- and afterward thanks injured Tiger Woods for not competing: He forgot to thank Phil Mickelson for not competing, either.

After having arthroscopic knee surgery April 15, Woods said he hopes to make his comeback to the PGA Tour in two weeks at the Memorial in Dublin, Ohio: It will be the most anticipated return in Ohio since the Browns.

Michelle Wie does not seek, and does not receive, a sponsors exemption into the Ginn Tribute, the tournament from which she withdrew after 16 holes last year, citing a suspicious wrist injury: Look at the bright side, at least she doesn't have to worry about shooting more than 88 again.

A speedboat sent off course by waves from another vessel crashes into a sand bunker at the exclusive Loch Lomond Golf Club in Scotland: Shame on the skipper -- he forgot to yell 'Fore.'

Colt Knost, the U.S. Amateur and U.S. Public Links champion who decide to forgo automatic invitations to the Masters, U.S. Open and British Open to turn professional, wins the Fort Smith Classic on the Nationwide Tour, his first professional victory: Apparently, the purity of amateur golf has a price, and it's $99,000.
