There are plenty of unknowns in the state of golf right now. It goes beyond “who will win this week?” to “what tour will he be on?” With that being said, there are some beautiful constants. There will be a golfer who wins each PGA Tour event. They will battle against golf courses familiar to Read more…
The PGA Tour starts 2024 at Kapalua once again, though this event looks a little different this year. It’s no longer a tournament of just champions, as the field consists of every player who won an event last year, plus anyone who qualified for the second leg of the PGA Tour playoffs. Rory McIlroy is Read more…
Happy New Year! 2023 produced drama and chaos within the game and, although it would be nice if things calmed down some on the men’s side, there is no guarantee that will be the case. But let’s focus on happier times—and special events on the calendar come 2024. It’s an Olympic year and the Games Read more…
Look, every golfer has big goals – 30 more yards, 10 fewer kilos, tighter lines and better scores. We’re not here to tell you those goals are out of reach. The problem with most New Year’s resolutions, though, is they start you at the foot of a mountain without a clear map to the top. Read more…
Twenty-one of the top 25 players in the Official World Golf Ranking will competing in the no-cut event with an overall prizemoney payout of $US20 million.
Editor’s Note—On Dec. 30, Tiger Woods turns 48. To celebrate his birthday, we resurfaced this article that chronicles the Hall of Famer’s 82 career PGA Tour wins. Of course, the big question for Tiger in 2024 is whether he will be healthy enough not only to compete on a relatively regular basis—he told the media Read more…
Burmese pythons are a real problem in South Florida. We wrote about this back when we used to write about non-golf things. Illegally introduced to the Florida Everglades via the exotic pet trade, the invasive reptile immediately thrived, continuing to expand its territory further and further north while simultaneously growing larger and larger. If that Read more…
It’s funny how the game’s truly great players never stop trying to get even better. Lee Trevino is perhaps the best example there is. The 84 year-old hits balls on the range almost every day. He still tinkers with his technique, and is constantly learning lessons from the past. He shared a couple of those Read more…
Listen, our families and friends mean well. They know we like golf which in their minds makes them think that holiday shopping is simple. Unfortunately, we all know how that turns out. A budget brand of balls that we don’t use, or a gag gift idea, like that toilet golf game. Perhaps some not-actually-useful doodad, Read more…
To the victors, go the spoils. Oh, and the bragging rights. A Ryder Cup victory for Europe at Marco Simone in September will be long remembered without prompting for those involved in the triumph. But just in case anyone on the losing side might be starting to get over the disappointment of a 16½-11½ defeat, Read more…
Betsy Rawls didn’t play golf until she was 17. Despite the late start, the University of Texas graduate with a degree in physics shined, winning eight major championships (including the U.S. Women’s Open four times) and 55 LPGA titles en route to one of the more illustrious and inspiring careers in the sport. The legend Read more…
The PGA Tour vs. LIV/PIF vs. fans vs. pro golf’s future took up much of the oxygen again in 2023, with a resolution to the mess still to come. Thankfully, there were plenty of more pleasant memories to sustain members of our Golf Digest staff this past year. Once more, we asked our writers and Read more…
Of all of the notable templates holes that architects C.B. Macdonald, Seth Raynor and Charles Banks popularized in the 1910s and 20s (what Macdonald called “ideal holes” including the Redan, Biarritz and Cape), the Punchbowl is usually the most whimsical and enjoyable to play. Because of their strange shapes with sunken greens surrounded on three Read more…
It seems a little crazy, but it’s true. Say you just three-putted from six feet. And say, three-putting from six feet makes you a little angry (just a little). And say, you slam your putter against something hard and it bends. Then, here’s the crazy part: The orientation of the face changed just enough that Read more…
