    Merrill Lynch Named Title Partner of Greg Norman’s PGA Tour Event Multi-year agreement presents the “Merrill Lynch Shootout” November 8-12. Fred Couples and Annika Sörenstam to compete as part of 24-player field. NAPLES, Fla., (April 17, 2006) – Greg Norman and Merrill Lynch are pleased to announce a multi-year agreement for the title sponsorship of Southwest Florida's PGA Tour stop, introducing the event as the “Merrill Lynch Shootout.” The newly named Merrill Lynch Shootout, which will be played for its 18th year November 8-12 at Tiburón Golf Club in Naples, Florida, raises funds and awareness for CureSearch National Childhood Cancer Foundation. The Merrill Lynch Shootout is also pleased to announce that Fred Couples and Annika Sörenstam have committed to the elite, 24-person field. Sörenstam will become the first woman to compete in the Merrill Lynch Shootout. In three starts this season, she has already recorded one victory, bringing her career win total to 67. Sörenstam, a member of the LPGA Tour and World Golf Hall of Fame, won half the events she entered last year including two major championships. This will mark Couples’ 10th appearance in the Merrill Lynch Shootout. The three- time champion claimed his first title alongside Raymond Floyd in 1990. His successive triumphs came in 1994 with Brad Faxon and 1999 with David Duval. Just two weeks ago Couples put on a superb ball-striking display en route to a five- way tie for third at The Masters. “The Merrill Lynch Shootout provides us with the perfect opportunity to partner with Greg Norman who represents the very best in golf, sportsmanship and charitable services,” said Bob McCann, Vice Chairman and President of Global Private Client at Merrill Lynch.

  • 2009 Mercedes-Benz Championship (The 1St of 37 Events in the PGA TOUR Regular Season)
    2009 Mercedes-Benz Championship (The 1st of 37 events in the PGA TOUR Regular Season) Kapalua, Maui, HI Jan. 8-11, 2009 Purse: $5,600,000 ($1,120,000 to the winner) The Plantation Course Par/Yards: 36-37—73/7,411 Second-Round Notes – Friday, January 9, 2009 Weather: Sunny and breezy, with temperatures reaching 83. Winds ENE 10-20 mph. In his third consecutive appearance at Kapalua (T13 – 2006, T19 – 2007), Australia’s Geoff Ogilvy maintained a one-shot lead after Friday’s second-round. Ogilvy followed his opening-round 6-under 67 with a 5-under 68 to maintain his lead heading into the weekend. At the halfway point in the 2009 Mercedes-Benz Championship, Geoff Ogilvy leads D.J. Trahan by one stroke. Geoff Ogilvy previously held the 36-hole lead at the 2008 World Golf Championships-CA Championship, where he ended up winning. The odds of a 36-hole leader hanging on to win at the Mercedes-Benz Championship since moving to the Plantation Course in 1999 are fifty-fifty. In the past 10 years, here is a look at those who have managed to win after holding the 36-hole lead: 1999 – David Duval 2000 – Tiger Woods 2003 – Ernie Els 2006 – Stuart Appleby 2007 – Vijay Singh The low round through 36 holes of the 2009 Mercedes-Benz Championship belongs to D.J. Trahan, who fired a 7-under 66 Friday. Trahan trails Geoff Ogilvy by one stroke. Playing in his second Mercedes-Benz Championship (32-2007), D.J. Trahan’s 7-under 66 in round two was his lowest score in a PGA TOUR event since shooting a 7-under 63 in round two of the 2008 BMW Championship.

  • Clutch Strokes: Performance Under Pressure in Golf
    COLLEGE OF THE HOLY CROSS Clutch Strokes: Performance Under Pressure in Golf Jeffrey Paadre This paper examines 10 years worth of PGA Tour Tournament data in order to examine whether or not clutch performance exists during the final round of a tournament. After controlling scores for differences in course difficulty, the paper finds no evidence of tangible clutch performance. The authors find that the perception of clutch performance is more likely attributable to talent differential between golfers. Assuming a normal distribution of golfer talent, it is possible that Tiger Woods can outshoot his opponents on the final day of a tournament as well as lose his lead to his competitors. Motivation and Literature In professional sports, heroes can be created through the concept of clutch performance. The perception of clutch performance occurs when an athlete raises his or her performance to an extraordinary level during the most important moments of a sporting event. Athletes such as David Ortiz and Adam Vinatieri have been immortalized as legends due to their consistent ability to help their teams win baseball and football games during important games where the outcome was hanging in the balance. Conversely Bill Buckner and Scott Norwood are amongst the unfortunate athletes burdened with reputations as choke artists based on their inability to perform well when their teams needed a high performance the most. One of the challenges that accompanies examining performance under pressure lies within trying to define which performances constitute clutch performance. For example, in 2005 John Henry, the owner of the Boston Red Sox, presented David Ortiz with a plaque inscribed “David Ortiz: The Greatest Clutch Hitter in the History of the Boston Red Sox”.
