		<title>English Only, Please</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The LPGA&#8217;s announcement that members will be required to speak English by the end of 2009 has set off strong reactions, from dismay to satisfaction.

		<title>Golf &#038; Cooking</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The combination of golf and barbecuing can feel a little forced sometimes, especially when it takes the form of quirky gifts. Golf and cooking classes however, seem like the perfect fit, not because golfers are necessarily interested in cooking, but because their significant others might be.

		<title>With Tiger Out, Less People Watch Golf</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The presence of Greg Norman on the leaderboard apparently couldn’t offset the absence of Tiger Woods.
ABC’s final-round coverage of the British Open on Sunday earned a 3.5 overnight rating, a 15 percent drop from last year (4.1). Padraig Harrington won both years, although last year’s numbers were bolstered by his four-hole playoff against Sergio Garcia. [...]]]></description>
