This week marks the 80th playing of the Charles Schwab Challenge at Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth. And yet again, it’ll feature some of the best golfers in the world taking on the Texas mainstay. Ben Hogan won the first tour event here in 1946. Other victors over the years include Arnold Palmer, Jack Read more…
You drink too much Fireball in college, you throw up and you eventually move on from that nightmarish cinnamon whiskey. That’s what usually happens (at least in this one writer’s experience), and then you’re off the stuff forever. Well, unless you’re this Florida woman with a recent DUI arrest that’s going viral for all the Read more…
After an eight-shot “World No. 1 being the World No. 1” victory last year, Scottie Scheffler returns as the defending champion/leader-in-the-clubhouse for this week’s CJ Cup Byron Nelson. The Texas event is back at TPC Craig Ranch after an offseason renovation led by former pro Lanny Wadkins. And many are hoping the course will have Read more…
There was a lot of talk (which we definitely added to) about Rory McIlroy’s 2026 Masters Champions Dinner menu. It’s an all-timer … it’s way too expensive … it’s too fancy. Instead of trying to one-up the World No. 2 at the upcoming PGA Championship, Scottie Scheffler has gone with the classic of all classics. Read more…
Sure, the sun’s coming out, and the flowers are blooming, but take the summer to spend time with your family and hit the course. You’ll only have one chance to watch the PGA Championship at Aronimink Golf Club (in 2026). World No. 1 and defending PGA champ Scottie Scheffler will be the player to beat Read more…
Rory McIlroy has three more chances at an additional major this season, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t already thinking about next year’s Masters Champions Dinner. For the fourth time in golf history, a Masters winner will choose the menu for the most important dinner in the sport in successive years. And this is something Read more…
After a one-year sojourn at the Philadelphia Cricket Club, the Truist Championship, along with seven of the top-ranked golfers in the world, will head back to Quail Hollow for a final test before next week’s PGA Championship. Rory McIlroy will tee it up for the first time since his second Masters victory, as will defending Read more…
It’s been 10 years since the PGA Tour has held an event at Trump National Doral in Miami, but that’ll change this week with the “inaugual” Cadillac Championship. (We put “inaugural” in air quotes because coincidentally the car company was the sponsor back in 2016 when Doral last hosted a World Golf Championship event). The Read more…
A wild viral video shows a driver taking an SUV onto a Topgolf driving range in North Carolina. No injuries were reported, but the bizarre incident has quickly made headlines.
Peanut butter and jelly, rock and roll, Shane Lowry and Rory McIlroy at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans. Over the past few years, Lowry and McIlroy have become a staple of the PGA Tour’s only team-up event, even winning back in 2024 and showing off their vocal ranges in a little post-victory karaoke. Now, Read more…
Hey, if you’re picking up some stuff from Costco, do you mind getting some paper towels, a new bottle of sunscreen, a few hot dogs and some forged wedges? You may have to wait a little on the wedges, but they’re on the way … and they’re USGA-approved. That’s right! Kirkland Signature has some new Read more…
Matt and Alex Fitzpatrick. Brooks Koepka and Shane Lowry. Ben Griffin and Andrew Novak. It’s time for teams on the PGA Tour with this week’s Zurich Classic of New Orleans, the tour’s lone regular-season pair-up event. It starts with four-ball (best ball) on Thursday, before foursomes (alternate shot) for the second round. Then, one more Read more…
We’ve all been there. One week, you’re playing a top-ranked course. And the next, you have to make do with a local muni. And yet, very few of us are teeing off at Augusta National and then trekking out to Mexico City with our job (and paycheck) in the balance. That’s what Bryson DeChambeau and Read more…
Sure, the golf at the Masters is dissected and broken down on a sub-atomic level, but at this point, it feels like it pales in comparison to the Champions Dinner critiques. Especially when it comes to Rory McIlroy’s recent (and first!) Augusta National meal. ESPN analysts ripped the feast, as did our very own podcasters, Read more…
The first major of the year is in the books, and now it’s time for … a signature event?! Well, alright. Let’s watch the world’s best once more as they trek from Augusta to Hilton Head Island to tee it up at the RBC Heritage. Defending champ Justin Thomas will return after a down-to-the-wire playoff Read more…
Ryanair is the Spirit Airlines of Europe, so you have to take everything its team says with a grain of salt. But, this seemed a little too harsh a viral dagger not to point out, especially right after a come-from-behind runner-up Augusta National finish for Scottie Scheffler. In the most out-of-nowhere social media post of Read more…
Augusta National is always a bastion for fashion. From the very-much-not-approved Malbon bird-watching get-up to the new golf sweater substitute sweeping the nation, the Masters has become a runway of sorts for the rest of the year in golf. Whether other major champions’ parents follow Rory McIlroy’s mother’s fashion-forward lead is yet to be seen. Read more…
It’s been reported that the average amount spent at the Masters merch shop is around $1,000. Which is obviously high but makes sense. Who knows when you’ll be back? Plus, most people aren’t shopping just for themselves, but for friends, relatives and basically anyone else who knows they’re heading to Augusta National. Well, this auction Read more…
It’s been quite the sports weekend for the Gotterup family. Chris Gotterup is eight strokes back of the leaders heading into the final 18 holes of the Masters, and now his sister Anna has flown down to Georgia after winning the Army-Navy lacrosse game. That positive energy may be just what the four-time PGA Tour Read more…
Still riding high after the Seattle Seahawks’ Super Bowl victory, five-time Pro Bowl pass rusher DeMarcus Lawrence is taking in the sights at Augusta National for the first time this week. That’s kind of the thinking man’s “I’m going to Disney World!” Despite growing up in Aiken, S.C., just 30 miles from the home of Read more…
