The lone team event on the PGA Tour, the Zurich Classic of New Orleans, is back this week, which is nice because it’s been a while since anyone besides Scottie Scheffler got to win a tournament. And given that Scheffler is taking the week off ahead of the arrival of his first child, this week Read more…
Although conventional thinking among golfers is to carry a 3-wood because you want to hit your fairway woods as far as possible, the fact is you’re likely doing yourself a disservice.
Presidents Cup captain’s assistant Geoff Ogilvy has declared Min Woo Lee a “captain’s dream” as the International team looks to find ways to counter the might of an American team led by rampant world No.1 Scottie Scheffler.
It took a K-9 team, two drone units and a golf cart bridge collision, but a 35-year-old Wisconsinite is now in custody following a chaotic Fond du Lac police chase. Police initially arrived on the scene at East Merrill Avenue after they received reports that a local was “destroying property and possibly assaulted someone inside Read more…
A few weeks ago a reader of my Golf IQ newsletter (which you can sign up for via Golf Digest+ right here), asked an interesting question. He was worried, in short, that one of his arms was so weak that it was slowing down his golf swing. As a right-handed golfer who does everything else Read more…
These aren’t your grandpa’s Washington Commanders. For starters, your grandpa didn’t call them the “Commanders.” Not only that, but the American capital’s once-proud football franchise is under new ownership and in prime position to select the star quarterback that has eluded them for decades come Thursday’s NFL Draft.

Among my sleeveless souvenirs are a couple with logos so powerful they stop more conversations than they start. Like the salt in my hair, looking in the mirror at these Read more…
I learned to play golf in Hyderabad, India, at a club that had blasted boulders and discharged peacocks to create its home. Other than the threat of snakes (scary) and mongooses (adorable but distracting), the course was much like the fairways I’d eventually walk in the States, down to the male-centric golf shop and strict Read more…
As a millennial, the hoodie was a pivotal piece of my wardrobe during those awkward teenage years. My high school didn’t have uniforms, but you would think it did by the number of gray and navy hoodies walking through the doors each morning. Certainly, hoodies were not considered a “nice” item of clothing—let alone an Read more…
Imagine if you fell in love with someone first and only later learned that person was rich. This is what it’s like to wear a ball cap now that I’ve lost most of my hair. You see a transactional relationship meant to disguise my diminished hairline. I see the latest chapter in a lifelong affair. Read more…
Oscar Wilde once said, “Beauty is the only thing that time cannot harm.” He was, of course, referencing the hideous shirt John Daly wore en route to winning the 1994 BellSouth Classic. The Ugly Golf Shirt is as much a staple of the game as Tiger Woods’ knack for the dramatic, a hot dog at Read more…
