Marc Dull put the odds at 10 percent, and he was on the wrong end of that estimation in the Round of 16 at the U.S. Amateur Four-Ball on Tuesday morning. Two against one didn’t seem like a fair fight. Dull and his fellow Floridian, Chip Brooke, advanced through 36 holes of stroke play and Read more…
One would think that the PGA Championship winner would take a week off after yet another major victory, but that’s why Scottie Scheffler’s Scottie Scheffler and the rest of us very much are not.

Michael Block was, understandably, mocked six ways to Sunday last week after his comments about wishing there was a “huge crowd on every hole” at Quail Hollow hit the internet. We didn’t think Blockie quotes could get any more bold than “if I had Rory’s distance …”, but the most famous club pro in golf Read more…

Scottie Scheffler and his longtime coach, the legendary Randy Smith, unveiled a new move at the PGA Championship this week. At least it was new to my eye, because I haven’t seen the player-coach do this before at a tournament. You can see it right here. Smith grabs hold of Scheffler’s hips and helps twist Read more…
Xander Schauffele was absolutely cooking on Sunday at Quail Hollow. Then, he arrived at the Green Mile, where “cook-offs” become “cool-offs.” Schauffele, sitting at five under on the day and three under for the championship, blocked his drive into the right fairway bunker at the par-4 16th, which already inflicted some pain on the defending Read more…
