Two of this year’s breakout stars on the PGA Tour have been former University of North Carolina teammates Ben Griffin and Ryan Gerard. It turns out, their friendship helped directly lead to the latter’s maiden victory.
Ahead of the final round of this year’s Open Championship, Rory McIlroy said Scottie Scheffler is “inevitable”. After the round, Xander Schauffele summed up the world No.1’s dominance even better.
Scottie Scheffler is the World No. 1 golfer, a fact that has only been backed up this week at the British Open. But according to one of his best friends on the PGA Tour, Scheffler also might be the best a trash talking on the golf course. Three-time major champ Jordan Spieth spent a good Read more…
With Scottie Scheffler holding a four-shot lead through 54 holes, the final round of the 2025 British Open seems like a foregone conclusion. Even for those competing against the World No. 1. But at least one golf fan is confident that there will be a final-round comeback. By Haotong Li. RELATED: Daniel Berger drives green Read more…
Turns out, the bank was open on Sunday at Royal Portrush. At least, for Daniel Berger. Just ahead of the leaders teeing off in the final round of the British Open, the four-time PGA Tour winner had one of the most unusual highlights of his career. Playing Royal Portrush’s par-4 17th, Berger smashed a driver Read more…
British Open Saturday was a WILD ride that included Justin Rose’s pair of shanks (!), Rory McIlroy hitting a pair of golf balls at the same time (!!) and even a happy (!!!) Tyrrell Hatton. And then there was one of the craziest club throws you’ll ever see. RELATED: Rory McIlroy involved in bizarre moment Read more…
If you played enough golf like Rory McIlroy, you’d think you’ve seen everything that can happen on a golf course. If you’ve watched as much golf as his fans have through the years, you’d think the same. Wrong.
We’ve done plenty of posts through the years about Tyrrell Hatton losing his cool on the golf course. Or, specifically, at the golf course. Well, this is NOT one of those posts. That’s because Hatton was arguably the happiest golf fans have ever seen him during Saturday’s third round of the British Open. And all Read more…
Through two days of the British Open, some of the world’s best players have climbed the leaderboard at Royal Portrush, setting up an exciting weekend in Northern Ireland. But as is the case at any major, there are plenty of other big names who won’t be there. RELATED: Surprise Day 1 leader starts Day 2 Read more…
Shane Lowry unleashing F-bomb rants during golf tournaments is certainly nothing new. He did it at this year’s PGA Championship. He did it at last year’s Open Championship. He, well, you get the point. But what happened on Friday was still a bit shocking from the Irishman.
Rasmus Hojgaard shot up the leaderboard on Friday at Royal Portrush as announcers joked that it’s hard to tell him and twin brother Nicolai, also moving up the leaderboard, apart. But it wasn’t hard to see that Rasmus looked a lot different than he did earlier in the week. And that’s why you need golf Read more…
Jacob Skov Olesen was one of the best stories of Day 1 of the British Open and certainly the most surprising name atop the leaderboard at Royal Portrush. Sadly for the 26-year-old Dane, his name didn’t stay up there long on Day 2. Olesen teed off Friday morning feeling confident enough to hit driver on Read more…
Golf fans will never (ever) be able to hit a golf ball like Rory McIlroy, but they can at least try to practice chipping like the five-time major champ this week. Well, the way he practiced long (long) before he was ever even a one-time major champ. RELATED: Major winner’s wife gives him specially-marked golf Read more…
If you told golf fans five years ago that Phil Mickelson would still be contending at an Open Championship at 55, some would have believed it. Fewer would have thought he’d ever be asked about a YouTube golfer during his post-round presser. But that’s exactly what happened on Thursday when Mickelson gathered with reporters at Read more…
Bryson DeChambeau is the longest hitter in the field at this week’s Open Championship, but he managed to hit the shortest shot on Day 1 at Royal Portrush.
Thursday’s opening round of the British Open had a bit of an Old-Timer’s Day feel with Phil Mickelson and Lee Westwood sharing the early lead at various points. And then there was the man who hit the first shot at Royal Portrush. That would be Padraig Harrington, who had the honor of striking the opening Read more…
Phil Mickelson got off to a great—and exciting—start to the 2025 British Open on Thursday morning at Royal Portrush. In other words, it was vintage Phil Mickelson. The six-time major champ had the early lead after making the turn in two under on Day 1. But it was a par in particular that had fans Read more…
From a heroic bunker shot to bladed chips to an impressive walk down memory lane to throwing golf balls, we’ve seen everything from Johnson Wagner over the past 16 months. At least, we thought we had. The Golf Channel analyst was back playing his role as chief recreator on Wednesday at the British Open, explaining Read more…
You can’t win (or lose) a golf tournament during a practice round, but you certainly can win over fans. And that’s exactly what Bryson DeChambeau did on Tuesday at Royal Portrush. The two-time U.S. Open champ would love to add a British Open title to his major collection this week. But even if he isn’t Read more…
Fans at Royal Portrush already got a sneak peak of the full Jordan Spieth Experience during a practice round. The three-time major champ hit a wild shot that found a crazy lie on a dune atop a bunker. But Spieth attempted to play it as it lies. And, well, it didn’t go too well. RELATED: Read more…
