Here’s a riddle for you: A Toronto native won the Canadian Open, but Canadians are disappointed that a Canadian didn’t win the Canadian Open. How can that be? Well, it’s not that hard to figure out, but it is an unlikely occurrence. Nathan Green is from Toronto, Australia, and his TaylorMade golf clubs took him to his first PGA tour victory.

Stewart Cink took his Nike clubs to Scotland, and is coming home with an extra claret jug for his first major victory. He beat Tom Watson in a 4 hole playoff. Cink birdied the 72nd hole to even get into the playoff, and then played great in the playoff, making 2 birdies.

Of course, most people were rooting for Tom Watson who at the age of 59 was the story of the week. Who would have expected such an old-timer to compete? Watson has already won the British Open 5 times, and even though I was rooting for him, I’m happy for Cink.

I like this offer because it’s very creative. If you buy Cleveland® Golf's CG7™ irons, CG7™ Tour irons, Launcher® irons, HiBORE® Xli irons, CG® Tour irons or HiBORE® Bloom® Xli irons for women before the end of 2009, you can trade them in for a new, updated set of irons anytime between January 2010 and December 2011 (2 years). This means that for the next 4 years, you can have irons that are only at most 2 years old, all for the price of one set of irons.

Here’s what the marketing department at Ping has to say about the Ping G10 driver, “Using finite element analysis (FEA) driven by a Cray Supercomputer, Ping engineers optimized the G10 driver's crown, sole and face structure interaction to ensure maximum energy transfer to the ball. The 460cc driver features a larger profile with a taller face and deeper crown that produces a higher MOI (moment of inertia) for greater forgiveness and increased ball velocity.”
