• Rory McIlroy isn’t coming to the PGA Tour after all, despite reports to the contrary. Best part of this story? McIlroy’s agent is named "Chubby Chandler." That sounds like a Dick Tracy villain or a member of the Little Rascals. Awesome! [Local Knowledge]

• Golf can be a pretty hazardous game, so if you’re ever attacked by an alligator, if trees are falling all around you, or you get impaled in the groin by the sharp edge of your broken driver (AAAAAHHHH), Zip Golfer has your tips for survival! [Zip Golfer]

• A good rundown of some fine golf betting games. Know what you’re getting into before you start playing, or you could go from millionaire to dead broke and writing a golf blog. Hypothetically speaking. [From the Rough]

• Many golfers are jumping from the LPGA to the Japan LPGA, since the JLPGA will have more tournaments and thus more opportunity to earn some cash. Mostly Harmless does a fine job of breaking down who’ll be making the attempt to qualify through JLPGA Q-School. [Mostly Harmless]

• Charles Barkley offers up some advice for Anthony Kim and the way that sex can screw up your putting stroke. [Sports Radio Interviews]

• Federal tax credits for high-mileage vehicles? Turns out they could be used to purchase golf carts. Who knew? [Wall Street Journal]

• There’s a golf course in Baltimore that’s looking for your suggestions for a name. I’m thinking "Devil Ball Hills" sounds pretty lovely, but your ideas are welcome. [Waggle Room]
