Birthday Gifts for Phil Mickelson, the man who has it all!

For Phil Mickelson's 39th birthday last year, wife Amy presented him with a dinosaur head, possibly a "Tarbosaurus bataar."

What do you give the "man who has everything" as Mickelson called himself?

Before you say "rocking chair", I've come up with gifts that Phil might appreciate for his 40th birthday.

1. One year of assorted Krispy Kreme donuts. Mickelson's favorite!

2. A winning assortment of "goodies" from Callaway. Mickelson has been testing new Callaway equipment and now needs the right driver, swing adjustments and confidence boosters to secure the U.S. Open trophy.

3. Five Guys now Six Guys? Mickelson won the bid to franchise Five Guys Burgers in Orange County, CA. Perhaps a winning shake to go with "the best burgers I've ever tasted"?

5. First tee time with Paddy Harrington and Y.E. Yang at the 2010 U.S. Open? Nah!

A "pairing" with Tiger Woods would be a better gift with Mickelson thrashing Woods and coming out of the shadow of the world's number one golfer.

6. Okay, so we really can't give the gift of The Grand-Slam of Golf to Phil but it would be a great birthday wish. Phil is on his way with this year's Masters win. A little bit of confidence goes a long way.

Probably, the most important birthday wish I could offer to Phil Mickelson is for Amy and mom to make a full recovery. You just can't put a price on good health!

Lady Classic Golf Glove gives all-over tan and shows off a great manicure

Golfers can usually see that I am left-handed because I suffer from "ghost-hand", that dreaded affliction which comes from one gloved paw and the other one open to the effects of the sun.

Up until recently I grabbed golf gloves off the shelves, searching for a small, right-handed leftover that other lefties missed and that I could scavenge.

No more searching is needed as I have found the Lady Classic Golf Glove.

With a variety of colors and styles available and a unique UV Filter Fabric which offers SPF10 sun protection, the Lady Classic Solar Glove gives women the option of obtaining a great tan on the "ghost-hand" while looking tres-chic on the golf course.

Take a Lady Classic on vacation as well, remembering that the sun is not your friend.

The Lady Classic Golf Glove also comes in a soft-flex, ring finger and half-glove for showing off that glowing new manicure.

Grab a new T-Glove (which secures a tee to the glove) for your husband for when he asks, "What did you get for me?"

Web-Series offers a 'Behind the Greens' look into the 2010 PGA Championship

Did you ever wonder how a golf tournament is created? Most people rarely realize the dedication and hard work necessary to transform a course such as Whistling Straits into the venue needed for the PGA Championship.

In the new web-series "Behind the Greens", fans can share in the excitement in the "building" of the 92nd PGA Championship, following the Course Superintendent, Operations Manager and Championship Director as they plan the event.

From the initial "build-out" on June 20th, you will be able to watch as Whistling Straits is transformed into a "small city", adding bleachers, tents, skyboxes and making sure there is "enough power cords to keep the mini-city running."

The web-series officially begins Thursday, June 3rd, but you can watch this cool trailer of Behind the Greens right now!
