The Masters Par 3 Contest is something of an anomaly in pro golf. Holes-in-one are a dime a dozen, the etiquette is atrocious and guys go out of their way NOT to win. In an environment like that, it takes a lot to earn the attention of the masses, but don’t that tell that to Read more…
The annual Masters Champions Dinner is one of the most sacred evenings in golf. Each Tuesday before the Masters, the tournament’s living champions gather to honor not only each other, but those that came before them with a meal curated by the previous year’s winner. There are tall tales, there are laughs, there is wine Read more…
The Masters and rules go together like pimento cheese and white bread. No running, no phones, no cash. Heck, there’s even a rule for where swing coaches stand while working with their player on the driving range… oh, and don’t under any circumstances call it the “driving range”. That’s according to Golf Channel’s Brandel Chamblee, Read more…
This time last year, Bennett Scheffler was the talk of the Masters … even though he hadn’t been born yet.

If the Masters started tomorrow, World No. 51 Ben Griffin would be the first man out. That’s a tough place to be, but it’s not for lack of trying.

Many speculated that Tosti was passively aggressively protesting Min Woo Lee’s slow play by marching to the beat of his own drum, a theory that the Argentinian shot down with a bazooka in tirade on X. Tosti deleted his reply about an hour later, but screenshots live forever.
No golfer wants to fly all the way to India just to miss the cut. That’s a lot of time zones to traverse—and a lot of culture differences to adjust to—just to go home empty handed. Unfortunately, that was the reality facing many DP World Tour pros who found themselves on the bubble at Hero Read more…
Who were the biggest winners and most likeable losers over the course of the campaign? What worked, what didn’t and how can the league continue to reinvent not only itself, but pro golf?
