Glad we have a golf coach on our staff. He knows what's up.

So it's like there big championship tournament then. What's that skins game that used to be advertised during Oklahoma and Colorado games back in the 90's? It was made out to be some big deal, but there were always only 4 guys in it. Was that some sort of championship tournament deal?

I'm serious. I know so little about golf, and not really interested either. i'm just trying not to be insulting of those who do.

I have no idea what this skins game you talk of is. Basically, any golf during football season is this new FedEx Cup thing to gain interest or the Fall Series (Silly Season).

There are 4 majors each year. The Masters, US Open, The (British) Open Championship, and the PGA Championship. They are always right around the same time each year: April, June, July, August, respectively.

The Masters has a special place in many people's heart because: it is the only one at the same venue every year, it is the first big tournament after 8-9 months and is when golf season starts up in most of the country, and Augusta National is a sight to be seen, even on TV. Many people, myself included, plan to watch every minute of it on TV. I was really worried when I saw the Spring Game scheduled for April 6.

The Masters will not effect any true Buckeye fan that wants to watch tOSU spring game. The Masters for many golf fanatics is the favorite tournament. For me it is probably 3rd on the list behind the Open and the US Open.

The coarse at Augusta favors long ball hitters like Tiger Woods and The Golden Bear. There is a reason why they have won 4 and 6 respectively.

Skins games are basically high stakes hole to hole golf. If a team or player doesn't win a hole the money rolls over to the next hole. In the real world at a local club or whatever it is a way for guys to gamble on their golf game.
