Welp, the Boogey Man is back, and his name is Scottie Scheffler. Fortunately, we got to have a little fun last week, as Stephen Hennessey cashed a huge 60-1 winner with Justin Rose at the Farmers Insurance Open. Fun time is now over. Unless, of course, you believe in the underdog story, which has been Read more…
As Justin Rose polished off his 13th career PGA Tour victory on Sunday at Torrey Pines, I couldn’t help but say out loud “wow, what an all-time great career this guy’s had” to no one in particular. That was followed by an immediate, intrusive thought. “Boy, we really throw around that ‘all-time’ tag liberally.” In Read more…
During a short work trip to Florida a few weeks ago, myself, my boss Sam Weinman and the great Keely Levins were fortunate enough to play seven holes at the newly opened Panther National following a video shoot. In classic Sam Weinman fashion, he did not bring his golf clubs (this is a man who Read more…
Among the many topics covered in Augusta National Chairman Fred Ridley’s pre-Masters press conference last April was the pace of play, or lack thereof, in the Drive, Chip and Putt finals. Ridley was specifically asked about some of the kids using the Aimpoint putting method during the competition, and whether or not it was an Read more…
When he’s not on tour, Marco Penge will be working on his game at Old Palm Golf Club in Florida, where he recently became a member. Apparently, it was the only place that would take him.
As the NFL steps aside for a week, the PGA Tour takes center stage with the Farmers Insurance Open, which always feels like the unofficial start of the season. Big-time venue, big-time field, big-time TV network. Torrey Pines always gets the people going. Speaking of getting going, Ludvig Aberg is going to try and get Read more…
Last Thursday, LIV Golf held its inaugural “Showcase” Awards show on FS1, a celebration of standout performances and defining moments from the 2025 season. The awards were broken into four different categories: Player-voted, Fan-voted, Committee-voted and League-directed. In the Player-voted Awards category, there were five total awards, including MVP and Clutch Player of the Year. Read more…
Jimmy Stanger was off and running on Thursday at the American Express. He made birdie at the par-5 11th, his second hole of the day, which was sandwiched in between a pair of pars. Then, at one under, he arrived to the 13th tee and his week, effectively, ended. First came water ball No. 1 Read more…
There was a time when the most common questions you’d get from a playing partner on the first tee were “what’s the game?” or “how many strokes are you giving me?” Nowadays, you’ll instead often hear something like this: “You good with music?” To be clear, I’m not saying this is a bad thing. In Read more…
A surprisingly star-studded field descends on Palm Springs this week for The American Express, which features a three-course rotation and a 54-hole cut. Scottie Scheffler leads the way as the favorite, while Ben Griffin, Russell Henley, Robert MacIntyre and Ludvig Aberg round out the rest of the top five on the odds board. Historically, longshots Read more…
This week at the American Express tournament in California, Day will embark on his 20th year as a professional golfer. He’s in “the sweet spot of old school and new school”, he says.
Robert MacIntyre couldn’t have asked for a cleaner final round on Sunday at the Sony Open in Hawaii. A seven-under 63 that featured seven birdies and zero bogeys. Enough to vault him into a tie for fourth, and it even briefly gave him the clubhouse lead until Chris Gotterup ran away with the tournament. All Read more…
It’s never too early to start thinking about retirement. Even if you’re a 26-year-old in the very beginning of the prime of your career. Chris Gotterup, who won for the third time in as many years on the PGA Tour Sunday at the Sony Open, is already thinking about it. And for good reason. Here’s Read more…
By his own admission, Jordan Spieth had four months to get ready for Thursday’s opening round of the Sony Open, the first event of the 2026 PGA Tour season. A third of the year to work on his swing, to do any equipment-tinkering. Naturally, Spieth waited until the very last minute to make a rather Read more…
On one hand, no Kapalua last week left a hole in our heart. On the other hand, it saved us some extra coin from a gambling perspective, which we can now use for the Sony Open, the official opening event of the 2026 PGA Tour season. We are so, so back. The 2026 gambling on Read more…
Brooks Koepka’s imminent return to the PGA Tour is the story currently captivating the golf world. But I’m more interested in another, far more important saga playing out over on Golf Twitter, one starring Brandt “The Golden Doodle” Snedeker (not affiliated with the professional golfer in any way, shape, or form). Snedeker, AKA @sneds_brandt, has Read more…
If these last two games have been any indication, Ole Miss is in very good hands with head coach Pete Golding, who took over the job before the College Football Playoff after Lane Kiffin bolted for LSU. Like Kiffin, Golding comes from the Nick Saban coaching tree, just like the guy who beat him Thursday Read more…
