 Mickelson injures wrist, out at Memorial
Mickelson
Phil Mickelson withdrew from the Memorial during the 11th hole of his first round on Thursday with a left wrist injury.
He said he was playing well and had it dialed in before aggravating the injury on the 11th hole. Mickelson says that he still has mobility in the wrist, but he can't put any pressure on it. He is scheduled to see a specialist on Friday and is still hoping to be ready to play in the U.S. Open at Oakmont. But this is devastating news for owners who used him in fantasy leagues this week.

 Westwood grabs lead at Dubai World midpoint
Westwood
Lee Westwood is 9-under-par 66-69=135 through two rounds of the Dubai World Championship and will sleep on a two-stroke lead over 18-hole leader, Robert Allenby (65-72), Rory McIlroy (68-69) and four others.
Despite a T-54 in Hong Kong, where he regretted playing, there are few if any as zeroed in on their games right as Westwood. He finally returned to the winner's circle in Portugal last month, but his overall consistency at a high level makes him a favorite everywhere he tees it up. The winner of the Race to Dubai receives $1.5 million in bonus prize money on top of his paycheck at the Dubai World Championship. Nov. 20 - 11:10 am et
 Allenby sets pace in Dubai World Championship
Allenby
Robert Allenby shot a 7-under-par 65 in the opening round of the Dubai World Championship, good for a one-stroke lead over Lee Westwood, Camilo Villegas and Chris Wood.
Allenby buried eight birdies at the Greg Norman-designed Earth Course at Jumeirah Golf Estates in the United Arab Emirates. Thirty-three of the 58 entrants are under par through 18 holes. Notables not among that lot are Justin Rose (E), Miguel Angel Jimenez (E), Ross Fisher (+1), Luke Donald (+1), Ernie Els (+2) and Graeme McDowell (+4). Paul Casey (rib muscle) and Anthony Kim (fatigue) are the only two eligible not competing. Nov. 19 - 10:14 am et
 European Tour standing pat on member starts
Scott
It was announced today that the European Tour will table the idea of offering incentives to members to compete in select events.
Fourteen months ago, the Euro Tour increased its membership requirement from 11 to 12 starts. That will remain the minimum for the 2010 season, which begins in South Africa in three weeks. The Tour also opened up the conduit of Affiliate Membership for 2009, making it easy for non-Euro members to contend in the Race to Dubai, the final of which begins on Thursday. Adam Scott, for one, admitted that he might forego Euro Tour membership next year if the membership incentives were approved. He is likely reconsidering his decision. Nov. 18 - 6:21 pm et

 Barron's TRO denied by U.S. Magistrate in TN
U.S. Magistrate Judge Tu Pham in Memphis ruled against Doug Barron's bid for a temporary restraining order against the PGA Tour's suspension due to failing a drug test in June.
Barron was awaiting the decision in Texas where he was planning on playing in the second stage of Q School. As a result, the suspension will carry into late 2010, which will prevent him from competing in the first stage of Q School next year. In essence, it's a two-year ban from membership unless he manages to win after sneaking into an event via Monday qualifying or a sponsor exemption in 2011. In hindsight, while this is how he makes his living, Barron will likely regret teeing it up in June while still weaning off the banned substance. According to Alex Miceli at Golfweek.com, Barron was completely off the Propranolol by the end of July. In response to the judge's decision tonight, the PGA Tour issed this brief statement: "We are pleased with the court’s decision and have no further comment at this time." Nov. 16 - 10:25 pm et

 T. Watson to play British Open beyond 2010
Watson
The R&A has revised its qualifying criteria for the British Open to allow all past champions a five-year exemption after finishing inside the top-10 at the event.
This directly influences the eligibility of 2009 British Open runner-up, Tom Watson, who turned 60 in September and was facing his final start in the major at St. Andrews in 2010 because of the age restriction. "We have introduced this exemption as a direct response to seeing two of our great Open Champions, both in their fifties, challenging to win our championship these last two years," explained Peter Dawson, Chief Executive of The R&A, also inferring Greg Norman's T-3 in 2008 at the age of 53.

Casey
Paul Casey has earned invitations to the 2010 Masters and U.S. Open after finishing in 22nd place on the PGA Tour's Money List.
The other players earning invitations to both tournaments because of their top-30 finishes were: Matt Kuchar (24th), Ian Poulter (25th), John Rollins (28th) and Justin Leonard (30th). Rory Sabbatini (18th) and Tim Clark (29th) were already eligible for the Masters but now have an invitation to the U.S. Open after their top-30 finishes. Nov. 15 - 7:50 pm et
 Stephen Ames wins the CMN Classic
Ames
Stephen Ames carded a final round of 8-under-par 64 and won on the second hole of a three-way playoff, with Justin Leonard and George McNeill, at the Children's Miracle Network Classic.
Ames told the Golf Channel after his victory, "I thought last night if I shot a 64 today that I would have a good chance." He shot the round of 64 by going 3-under-par on the front nine and then carding five birdies in his last seven holes to reach 18-under-par for the tournament. He then waited as the final groups finished up and he found himself in a three-way playoff with Justin Leonard and George McNeill. On the first playoff hole, Ames and McNeill were able to par the 18th hole, but Justin Leonard was eliminated when he three-putted for a bogey. The final playoff hole was at the par-3 15th hole, Ames found the green and two-putted for par and he won the championship when McNeill had his 6-foot par-putt go in and out of the hole for a bogey. The championship is the fourth career title for Ames and it is the second time that he has won the Children's Miracle Network Classic. Nov. 15 - 5:07 pm et
 Tiger Woods wins the JBWere Masters
Woods
Tiger Woods carded a final round of 4-under-par 68 and won the JBWere Masters by two strokes over Greg Chalmers.
Woods commented to Fox Sports Australia after his round that, "You had to make some birdies early and I was able to do that." He opened with a birdie at the first hole and then put consecutive birdies on the card starting at the 5th hole. He made the turn with a two-stroke advantage and Woods did get the lead out to three shots after a birdie at the par-5 12th hole, but he gave it back on the next hole after a camera disturbed his swing. Woods added another birdie at the par-3 15th hole and his pursuers could never get closer than two strokes. The championship is the seventh title that Woods has won this year and he has become only the third American in history to win the Australian Masters Gold Jacket. Nov. 15 - 1:26 am et

 Leonard in 4-way tie at the CMN Classic
Leonard
Justin Leonard posted a third round of 1-under-par 71 and shares the lead with George McNeil, Justin Rose and Mathias Gronberg at the Children Miracle Network Classic.
Leonard opened with pair of birdies (2nd, 4th) and by the 5th hole it looked like he might run away with the title after opening up a five-stroke advantage on the field. A poor approach at the 6th hole cost him a stroke, and after pars on the next three holes, his lead had shrunk to two strokes by the turn. On the back nine, Leonard found himself in a tie for the lead after finding the water at the 11th hole and by the par-5 14th hole he was two strokes off the pace after playing partner George McNeill eagled the hole. Leonard did miss short puts at the final two holes, but he regained a share of the lead after McNeill double-bogeyed the final hole. On Sunday, Leonard will be looking for his 13th career PGA Tour title and his first since the 2008 Stanford St. Jude Championship. Nov. 14 - 4:15 pm et
