Each week on GolfChannel.com, well examine which players stocks and trends are rising and falling in the world of golf.RISING$10 million exhibitions (+10%): Its funny, those scoffing at the reported Tiger-Phil duel because 1.) it should have happened a decade earlier, so now its lame, or 2.) it isnt interesting if theyre not putting up their own cash. Even if their relationship is now awkwardly warm and fuzzy, itd still be a blast to watch (and hear) two legends go head to head, just like the old Wonderful World of Golf series. There is no downside to this.Kevin Na (+8%): To most fans hes an irritant, a head case whos seemingly stuck in super-slo-mo, the epitome of whats wrong with professional golf but hes also wildly entertaining, unafraid to show his emotions or his swagger or his vulnerability. Love him or loathe him, the Tour could use a few more interesting guys like Na.Russell Knox (+5%): A short-but-straight knocker and sublime putter in a run of good form that sounds like a winning formula at not just burned-out Carnoustie but also at Le Golf National, the Ryder Cup venue where two weeks ago he tied for second. Hmmm Sei Young Kim (+3%): Doesnt matter how easy the course is 31 under par for a 72-hole tournament is absolutely ridiculous. Considering Kim had previously tied the low 54-hole mark on tour, its safe to say shes the most explosive player on the LPGA.Jon Rahm (+1%): If hes not on your short list of favorites for The Open, youre doing it all wrong. In contention each of the past two weeks, hes trending in the right direction and ready for his major breakout.
FALLINGHenrik Stenson (-1%): With two majors, a WGC, the playoffs and the Ryder Cup upcoming, there couldnt be a worse time for an elbow injury to pop up. Sigh.Bubba (-2%): With a golden opportunity to leapfrog all of the inexperienced contenders at The Greenbrier and create even more separation in the Player of the Year debate Watson instead slumped to a 72 in the final round and plummeted to 13th.John Peterson (-3%): Already dissatisfied with Tour life, Peterson wont have fond memories of the Tours points system, either. He lost his playing privileges by less than a FedExCup point, expediting his retirement. Ouch.Rory (-5%): He said last week perhaps correctly that hed win every week if he could marry his typically excellent ball-striking with the lights-out putting he showed at Bay Hill. The problem is, he cant, not yet anyway, and he remains easily the worst putter of todays greats.Phil (-6%): An admitted lack of focus led to another embarrassing two-shot penalty. Heres hoping he locks in mentally, because with his current skill set, The Open represents his best chance to win a major.

"I had cancer," said Weekley, who went under the knife last July to remove the carcinoma and a cyst that had filled with fluid. The second operation kept him sidelined until late November. The long layoff, though, took its toll on Weekley's game. When he returned to the range, he was only hitting his 9-iron 135 yards.
