Despite the field getting weaker by the year, and the golf course playing easier and easier due to overseeding, the Cognizant at PGA National still managed to deliver this past Sunday. Nico Echavarria was the winner, but the story was the epic collapse from Shane Lowry, who admitted afterward that he couldn’t feel the clubface Read more…
Billy Horschel sounded off on a key change made to PGA National. Again. At last year’s Cognizant Classic, Jake Knapp opened with a 12-under 59, just the 15th sub-60 round in PGA Tour history.

If you’ve not been following the saga of the golf bettor who has been eating nothing but Wendy’s chili for the past month, well, good for you. You live off the internet, a place where the USA Men’s hockey team are still heroes and where the terms “framemogging” and “jestermaxxing” don’t exist. Stay there. Never Read more…
Recently, I had to fork over the most amount of money that I have ever lost on the golf course. To be clear, it is not an amount that is going to put me out on the street with a beggar’s cup. I did not have to dip in my savings. I’m going to be Read more…
