Good news – we hit another winner last week. Even better news? We broke the dreaded Golf Digest Expert Panel Headline Curse, as we called our shot with the Fitzpatrick bros. Bad news? There is no bad news. Special shoutout to Ryan Noonan, who was the only member of the panel to select the red-hot Read more…
This week, we had Heisman Trophy winner and Super Bowl champion Reggie Bush on The Loop podcast to promote Bush’s United Athletes Tour, a first-of-its-kind golf league that will pit professional athletes of past and present against each other on the golf course. Bush, as you’ll hear in our interview, is a total golf sicko, Read more…
The Zurich Classic might be an off week for the casuals, but, as that famous soccer (or futbol?) meme states, “We will be there no matter what.” Sure, the field is not exactly strong and the odds at the top of the board are hardly juicy, but the volatile team format certainly widens the pool Read more…
Ahhh, the “bachelor party weekend,” a phrase that causes the brain of the nearest boomer in ear shot to short-circuit. “BACK IN MY DAY, BACHELOR PARTIES WE’RE ONE NIGHT. AND WE DID IT AT DA BAR DOWN DA STREET. YOU STUPID MILLENIALS AND YA WEEKENDS.” Honestly, as I’ve gotten older (33 now, yikes), I’ve started Read more…
Based off the one-handed finish, it was clear Matt Fitzpatrick did not strike his approach shot on the first and only playoff hole at Harbour Town exactly how he wanted to. But that didn’t matter, because the “mis-hit” still resulted in one of the more legendary shots into the iconic 18th, and the Englishman was Read more…
Masters Sunday is golf’s Super Bowl. Unfortunately, CBS treated it like a Thursday Night Football Game between the Jags and the Titans, particularly in the day’s biggest moments. There was, of course, the total debacle that occurred on the final hole, where McIlroy’s second shot came to rest in a tricky lie in the greenside Read more…
After his third-round 65, Scheffler was oddly testy with the media outside of Augusta National’s clubhouse. His interview with CBS’ Amanda Balionis wasn’t quite as spicy, though he still had some things he wanted to get off his chest.
AUGUSTA, Ga. — We were told all week that, because of the weather forecast, this would be one of the toughest Masters tournaments in years. That was very much the case … for one round. Then, the powers that be at Augusta National turned the faucet on. For what reason, we do not know. Best Read more…
AUGUSTA, Ga. — Brian Harman currently sits 11 back of Rory McIlroy at the Masters, good enough for T-31. He’s made a strong comeback to get there, but he’s completely out of the tournament. Yet, somehow, he’s still living rent-free in all of Europe’s head. Harman, who opened the week with a 79 on the Read more…
AUGUSTA, Ga. — Following a brutal opening four-over 76, Bryson DeChambeau’s chances of winning the Masters were all but dashed. But the two-time U.S. Open winner still fought to make the cut on Friday, and after 17 holes it looked like he had secured two more rounds at Augusta National, Then, catastrophe struck. DeChambeau took Read more…
AUGUSTA, Ga. — If this were a random PGA Tour event, there’s a good chance Haotong Li never makes it to the golf course this morning. But this is the Masters at Augusta National, where players will power through just about any injury, illness or other miscellaneous off-the-course issue in order to play four rounds. Read more…
Despite shooting a four-over 76 that included a triple-bogey 7 on the 11th hole Thursday, Bryson DeChambeau did stop and speak to the media after the round. He wasn’t exactly a chatterbox, though.
AUGUSTA, Ga. — There are ride-or-die caddies, and then there is Michael Greller, who has caddied for Jordan Spieth since he turned professional in 2013. And the former middle school math teacher has the gray hair to prove it. Greller took his latest ride on the Spieth-coaster Thursday at the Masters, where the 2015 winner Read more…
Another Masters has arrived, and the 2026 edition feels as wide open as ever. The last few years here have felt like Scottie Scheffler’s tournament to lose, but between his shoddy iron play and the fact he has not played in nearly one month, it feels like an opportunity for another big name to emerge. Read more…
AUGUSTA, Ga. — Thanks to his clutch play at the Ryder Cup last September and at the Players Championship last month, Cameron Young has become a fast fan favorite among American golf fans. This week at Augusta National, he’s among the favorites to win, and the patrons are taking notice. Young, who is a fairly Read more…
First, I’d like to express sincere gratitude to those of you who have read one, two or perhaps several of these stupid golf problems columns. If you’ve read all of them, you deserve some sort of prize. I’m sure there’s something I can find in my house to send your way. My email is at Read more…
The Valero Texas Open, the final appetizer before the main course that is the Masters, is missing some big names this week, the latest being Collin Morikawa, who withdrew on Tuesday. This tournament is as wide open as it could be, as evidenced by each member of our expert panel being on a different golfer Read more…
