In an effort to keep our golf visitors well informed on what is going on around the Internet, Range Balls is our weekly link dump. Every Tuesday during golf season, we will toss out some of the most interesting things we came across. If you have a tip, e-mail us at fanhousegolf@gmail.com. Enjoy the links.-- Darren Rovell tweeted that although Tiger Woods and his agent, Mark Steinberg, don't talk about the billion dollar mark, the FedEx Cup purse has pushed Tiger nearly to the ten figure mark. He thinks he'll be a billionaire by 2010, the first athlete ever to hit that mark. [Twitter]
-- The incredible hole-in-one stories keep a-comin' -- a North Dakota golfer made two in the same round. At this rate, I'm expecting a story by the end of the year about a foursome that made consecutive holes-in-one on every hole on the front nine. [Golf.com]
-- Say what you want to say, but the FedEx Cup is designed for one person and one person only -- Tiger. [Wei Under Par]
-- Ever wanted to know what it's really like covering a golf tournament? Jay Busbee was at the Tour Championship and gives his final notes, including a fun take on the media and how Johnny Miller is not racist. [Devil Ball Golf]
-- You never thought you'd see these two words in the same sentence -- Phil Mickelson and fashionable. [The Golf Girl Diary]

I once played with a friend of mine who had three consecutive eagles, on a par 5, a par 4 and a par 3, thats right the par three was a hole in one. I have never heard of anyone accomplishing this

My crazy story is from a buddy who made an eagle on a par-5 after hitting his drive in a hazard. Don't hear of that happening a lot.
