"Will Somebody Do Something?"



Fanhouse.com Mick Elliot wonders if this is the most boring Tour season in memory (since maybe POY Wayne Levy's in 1990)?

The PGA Tour season is steaming hard toward the home stretch and there's something noticeably missing. Namely, a player of the year.

With the majors down to only next month's PGA Championship, the 2010 season is looking very much like an interesting story with no ending.

Phil Mickelson won the Masters and has done little else.

Relatively unknown Graeme McDowell won the U.S. Open and Louis Oosthuizen was an even bigger surprise in the British, but what else have they done?

Ernie Els, Jim Furyk, Justin Rose and Steve Stricker are the season's only multiple winners, all with two titles -- but none of them majors.

Tiger Woods may be Player of the Year, but he hasn't done diddly on a golf course.

So what happens if they give an award and nobody deserves it?


The most consistent is Lee Westwood who has two top-3 finishes in majors (16th at the U.S. Open) and only won when Robert Garrigus coughed up a 3-shot lead on the final hole. The PGA Championship is still ahead along with the FedEx playoffs, so hopefully someone pulls away from the sleeping pack. Otherwise, the winner is N/A (non-applicable).
