Golf Digest Honors: Recapping the best golf ‘accomplishments’ of 2025

Welcome again to Golf Digest Honors, our annual tradition where pros, amateurs and weekend golfers are judged as equals. All year long we fawn over prize money and polished skill, but once a season we strive to recognize even more. Who among us produced feats that flashed the ethereal magic of this universal game? As Read more…

Our favorite Golf Digest portraits of 2025

We’ve said this for a few years now: The secret to good storytelling is more than simply smart and insightful words on a page or screen. It also calls for images that capture the essence of the subject, whether the demeanor of an individual, the mood of a moment or richness of place or thing. Read more…

Lewis Chitengwa and the career that might have been

It was December 1992, and the first chapters in the legend of Tiger Woods were being written. Already he had won countless AJGA titles, claimed two of an unprecedented three straight U.S. Junior Amateurs and, as a high school junior, played in his first U.S. Amateur where, in the second round of stroke-play qualifying, he Read more…

Paying tribute to those golf lost in 2025

In 1997, Judy Bell became the first female president of the USGA in its then 102-year history. The standout amateur turned golf trailblazer was asked the morning after her election how it felt to be a woman leading one of the most influential associations in sports, to which she responded, “I don’t know yet how Read more…

Our favorite golf memories from 2025

Like most of you, the game isn’t just a sport for us Read more…

Giving thanks for ‘bad’ golf

It is Thanksgiving and I’m visiting family in Cincinnati, which means the worst golf hole in America is down the street. Fernbank Golf Course’s opener stretches 254 yards, a modest dogleg with a bunker stationed near the green. In isolation, it qualifies as the proverbial gentle handshake welcoming you to the round. But it’s not Read more…

How real is the possibility of a 20-event PGA Tour season? Let’s lay it out

As if there hasn’t been enough upheaval in professional golf, news emerged last week about the possibility of a future 20-odd tournament schedule for the PGA Tour – a model that could cut the current number of events the tour holds roughly in half. You have questions, we have… well, we have a lot of questions, too, but also some answers. We do our best to explain what exactly is going on.

The Shot of His Life

There are shots worth millions of dollars, shots that build legacies and shots that spark careers. But away from the tours, far from the big money and the cameras, there are shots that carry a different kind of pressure. Those are the shots that nobody will ever know about, but that define entire lives. And Read more…

This player is close to pulling off golf’s version of the Triple Crown

The idea of a “triple crown” isn’t really something associated with golf. We have tournament titles, scoring leaders, major champions and grand slam winners. But what if it did exist golf? In other sports, the designation is typically used to highlight a player’s all-around game, mostly within a single season. In baseball, winning the hitters’ Read more…
