Since becoming Malbon’s first PGA Tour ambassador in 2024, Jason Day has transformed from a mild-mannered Nike bot to a high-fashion fit god before our every eyes.
When Shooter McGavin famously asked “how am I supposed to chip with that going on, Doug?” he was referring to “two big fat naked bikers in the woods off 17 having sex.” In the years since the iconic ‘Happy Gilmore’ villain posed that question, however, it has taken on life of its own, applying to Read more…
At LIV Virginia, 54-year-old Phil Mickelson turned back the clock. Lefty has struggled since his switch to LIV Golf, looking well past his prime both on the upstart tour and in his subsequent major appearances, but during the final round at Robert Trent Jones Golf Club on Sunday, Mickelson proved there’s still magic in his Read more…
The last time Alistair Docherty graced the digital pages of Golf Digest, the news wasn’t so great. At the Korn Ferry Tour Championship back in October, Docherty needed a runner-up finish to climb into the top 30 and earn his PGA Tour card. Docherty lived up to his end of the bargain, firing a final-round Read more…
For the past 18 months, Johnson Wagner has served as Golf Channel’s de-facto crash-test dummy.

“Golf’s Longest Day” is here. Across the US and Canada, Final Qualifying for the 2025 US Open is underway, with pros, Joes, amateurs and terminally bored former athletes all vying for a spot in the field at Oakmont.
Short par 4s are soooo 2024. 2025 is all about the long par 3. From the 223-yard (203 metres) 17th at Quail Hollow to the 290-yard 8th at Oakmont, the site of next month’s US Open, it seems like par 3s everywhere are experiencing a sudden growth spurt. The masochists among us are gleefully pulling Read more…
Bryson DeChambeau has a need for speed. On an ordinary weekend, that’s ball speed, but on Sunday, the two-time major champion experienced a different kind of acceleration when he enjoyed a 180-mph joyride in a two-seat Indy car at the Indianapolis 500. Buckle up, folks. RELATED: This Charlie Woods scorecard from an AJGA event at Read more…
Golf clubs are specifically designed to transmit high amounts of force to a concentrated target area. That, of course, makes them uniquely effective at launching golf balls long distances with great accuracy. When wielded incorrectly, however, they can be extremely destructive. Iranian-born golf instructor Mohammad Mohseni Goudarzi learned that the hard way last year when Read more…
It’s been a rough month for Joel Dahmen. After bricking a three-foot par putt on the 71st hole to choke away a certain victory at the Corales Puntacana Championship in April, Dahmen has missed three straight cuts.
Motor City Golf Club is the worst-kept secret in (simulator) golf. Earlier this month, reports surfaced that TGL—the upstart simulator golf league from Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy—had filed a trademark for the franchise moniker.
On Saturday, a fan at Quail Hollow was in the wrong place at the wrong time when Jon Rahm lost his approach shot on par-4 11th hole left, striking the man square in the head. Thankfully the fan was alright, or at least appeared to be, which is more than former SportsCenter anchor Sage Steele Read more…
Golf is not a contact sport, but that doesn’t mean injuries don’t occur. Backs tweak, wrists get sore, blisters burst and sometimes, on rare occasions, innocent bystanders get golf ball dimples permanently tattooed on their foreheads. That’s what happened on Saturday afternoon at Quail Hollow, when Jon Rahm lost his approach on the par-4 11th Read more…
It’s not been a great PGA Championship for LIV Golf’s aging crop of big-money major winners. Dustin Johnson missed the cut with a 78-76 that had the armchair warriors screaming “washed!” Phil Mickelson joined him after taking four hacks to get out of a greenside bunker on Friday, finishing his tournament at nine-over par. Then Read more…
Fans pay good money for major championship tickets. In the case of this week’s 2025 PGA Championship at Quail Hollow, upwards of $300. That may sound like an arm and a leg, but it doesn’t compare to actually losing an arm and a leg, as one fan nearly learned on Friday. It all began on Read more…
Tyler Collet’s game is trending at just the right time. Last month, the assistant pro at John’s Island Club won the 2025 PGA Professional Championship by a record 10 strokes, punching his ticket to this week’s PGA Championship. On Thursday at Quail Hollow, Collet proved he isn’t in Charlotte simply for the BBQ when he Read more…
The hands-down, number-one best thing about being a kid is that you genuinely don’t know any better. There’s a simple innocence (and sometimes brutal honesty) in being young and carefree, and many adults long for those days as they grow older and more aware of the barriers, guardrails and, of course, gallery ropes that society Read more…
Scottie Scheffler is a pretty mild-mannered fella, so it came as a shock to the sports world when we woke up on the morning of May 17th, 2024, to find a mugshot of the World No. 1 plastered across the Internet. As fans soon came to learn, Scheffler was arrested trying to enter Valhalla Golf Read more…
