Teeing Off

Golf in the Lower Hudson Valley, from high schools to the pros

But do they have any DNA evidence?

If you’ve been following this Paul Azinger-Nick Faldo saga, in which Azinger described his Ryder Cup captain counterpart in unflattering terms in an interview and then said the words were taken out of context, it gets even better.

Now the Daily Mail of London has produced an audio file of that interview. It’s a bit grainy, but it does counter Azinger’s contention that he was just goofing around.

I like Paul Azinger, always have. When I first started covering golf in the late 90s, he was the tour player I got to know the best. But one of the reasons I’ve liked him is he’s always been brutally honest, which is what may have been his problem here.

Alex MyersAlex Myers
A sports reporter at The Journal News for nearly three years, Alex Myers has covered a bit of everything, but a lot of golf, ranging from the high school level to last year's U.S. Open at Winged Foot. His golf writing goes back to his college days when he attended Wake Forest University. Myers is also an avid player who is constantly trying to improve on his current handicap of 8. Perhaps his biggest thrill came earlier this summer when he conquered the famed 17th hole at the TPC at Sawgrass by hitting a 9-iron onto the island green and walking away with a 2-putt par.
