For the second time in a week, Adam Hadwin is going viral on Golf Twitter. Just five days after being tackled by a security guard while trying to celebrate Nick Taylor’s win at the Canadian Open, the PGA Tour pro had another embarrassing moment. At least this one didn’t look as painful. During the second Read more…
After a week of crazy (potential) merger news, Golf Twitter is back to focusing on actual golf this week. And its eye is squarely on Los Angeles. It just wandered, momentarily, to a different LA course on Wednesday.
In an interview with NBC Sports’ John Wood, Rickie revealed he plans to purposely miss the 15th green short if/when the USGA puts the pin up front to make it about a 73-metre shot.
That’s a nice, quick job by the USGA. Although we’re pretty sure Hadwin won’t wear the construction vest and hard hat – in part because someone at LACC would probably have him removed from the grounds.
PGA Tour pros, by and large, were very, very mad on Wednesday morning (AEST) when they were blindsided by news of the merger with LIV Golf, the very entity they’d been told was their sworn enemy for the past couple years.
“Swing your swing.” It’s a phrase you hear in golf a lot, although, probably in part to make bad golfers feel less bad about their bad swings. It’s also apparently a motto by which Brett Silvernail lives his life.
A painful – and flukish – sternum injury caused Brandt Snedeker to make an extreme “quality-of-life decision” late last year. And now that his pain has subsided, he’s hoping his quality of golf comes back as well.
Geno Bonnalie, whose boss, Joel Dahmen, finished T-69, had an opportunity to play the 2023 PGA Championship venue the morning after the final round and he took advantage of it. He also used the opportunity to set up an over/under bet for his score.
Faxon argued the golfers are playing for their countries and not their tour. And Chamblee still wasn’t having it. Have a look as this debate leads to an all-time awkward moment between the two.
Phil Mickelson made a messy double bogey on Oak Hill’s sixth hole during Friday’s second round of the 2023 PGA Championship. If it weren’t for a PGA rules official, however, it would have been even worse.
The NCAA canceled the third round of the 2023 Division III Women’s Golf Championship on Thursday after one of the pin placements was deemed “unplayable.” And when you watch a collection of videos that went viral on Golf Twitter, you’ll understand why.
This is the time of the year where the PGA (Professional Golfers’ Association) of America vs PGA Tour confusion reaches its peak. Confusion reigns about what golf’s other main bodies do, too.
Calvin Johnson shocked the world when he retired from the NFL in 2015 at the peak of his powers. The Detroit Lions wide receiver was 30 years old and coming off a sixth straight Pro Bowl selection, but had grown frustrated with losses—and injuries—piling up.
K.H. Lee isn’t the only golfer going for a three-peat this week. Howard University’s Greg Odom Jr. is in position to make it three in a row at the PGA Works Collegiate Championship. But regardless if he pulls off a come-from-behind victory on Wednesday, he’s already a big winner on Golf Twitter this week.
Bella Simoes is nine years of age and has a long way to go to actually qualify for the US Women’s Open, but the Brazilian kicked off the qualifying process on Tuesday morning.
After failing to make it to the weekend at last week’s Wells Fargo Championship, though, it looks like Adam Hadwin really put himself through the ringer.
