Trevino jabs back at Goydos
Lee Trevino had a message for Paul Goydos, who in defending the current era of players opined that "there are 10 Lee Trevinos" on tour today. "Tell him you were at my house," Trevino said with a smile, "and you tell him to send me the list of the 10 guys out there who have won six majors and 29 tournaments. Give him my address."

Harrington to tinker at Titleist
Padraig Harrington will complete his season's work in the Tiger Woods-promoted Chevron championship in California in a fortnight's time which is a non-US Tour event but one which carries world ranking points. While Harrington will be doing his best to win that out-of-season money fest, the visit to the west coast has a secondary mission. Harirngton will be bringing his coach Bob Torrance with him on the trip, which will also incorporate visits to the Titleist Performance Institute where the player will be put through a series of tests aimed at developing his game for next season's assault on the majors.

Westwood heeds caddie's harsh advice
Lee Westwood turned bully boy yesterday to plunder the biggest prize in Euro Tour history with what he insisted was the most stunning golf of his career. The 36-year-old Englishman boosted his bank balance after scooping a Dubai World Championship and Order of Merit double. Westwood said: "My caddie, Billy Foster, had enough beers at the beach party this week to tell me what he really thought of me. He told me I had to start bullying them out on the course. So I felt like I bullied everyone today." The bagman's advice was duly heeded when Westwood ripped out a breathtaking course record eight-under 64.

Allenby critical of American players
A reporter asked Robert Allenby why more American players don't play international events. You can almost hear the angel and devil arguing across his shoulders. "You know what, I've got to word this right so I don't get into trouble, because I'm good at getting myself into trouble," Allenby said. Did he word it right? Sure, if he meant to say that American players are spoiled and that PGA Tour courses are dull. Common enough opinions, but not usually heard from a Tour pro. Here's his answer: "You know, Americans play for so much money, and when you've got a purse where $1 million, a million plus, is first prize, not to say that they are spoiled, but it's a little bit that way. It's like, well, why would I want to travel, when I can make a million bucks instead of going to Europe and only making $500,000 or $600,000?"
