With baby No.5 only a month away, Jason Day says he’d love to make September even more special by becoming the first Australian to win the PGA Tour’s season-long FedEx Cup.
The PGA Tour’s regular-season finale is this week at the Wyndham Championship. Depending on your perspective, this year’s edition has more or less drama than past iterations.
Jason Day has joined an historic group of golfers to have finished second in all four major championships after sharing runner-up honours at the 151st Open Championship at Royal Liverpool.
Adam Scott walked into the interview area at Royal Liverpool soaking wet, over par and having missed out on winning the elusive claret jug for another year.
With Brian Harman sitting five strokes clear at the top of the leaderboard early Saturday morning, many UK golf fans were finally forced to learn who the hell Brian Harman is. He’s a lefty. He looks like a former Australian cricket captain.
Royal Liverpool has been defenceless in the early going of Round 3, the byproduct of wet confines and little rain. But the course does have one curveball to throw at the field:
In football terms, the language of the Liverpool galleries, Tommy Fleetwood’s five-shot deficit through 36 holes to Brian Harman at the Open Championship is not unlike his beloved Everton FC being a few goals down at halftime in a home game at Goodison Park. It’s not ideal, but it’s not ever either.
Cameron Smith was welcomed to the first tee at the 151st Open on Thursday morning to raucous applause and warmly announced as “the defending champion.” Less friendly, though, was the golf course at Royal Liverpool as the Australian began his title defence with a one-over-par 72.
It’s fair to wonder how Adam Scott is feeling following the surprise announcement that the PGA Tour and LIV Golf’s backer, the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia, are planning to form a new entity together.
On Saturday evening in Los Angeles, Min Woo Lee’s phone pinged with a text from his friend and childhood idol, Adam Scott. It was an offer to ride on the former Masters champion’s private jet to Connecticut for next week’s Travelers Championship.
A 400-yard drive was the highlight of a second round that Min Woo Lee used to blast his way into US Open contention alongside Cameron Smith at Los Angeles Country Club.
Seven Australians will tee up at the 2023 US Open as Los Angeles Country Club pulls back the curtain on one of America’s most exclusive and lavish golf clubs.
Star Aussie amateur and Stanford University player Karl Vilips has bolstered the Australian contingent at next week’s US Open after making it through gruelling 36-hole final qualifying, earning his major championship debut.
