Part of what makes the Ryder Cup so compelling, other than the Europe vs. U.S. aspect, is the format. Match play, team match play in particular, is simply as good as it gets. Not only is it great because it’s something we so rarely get to watch, it’s great because it completely changes each player’s Read more…
In an interview with FOX News, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman says he “doesn’t care” about sportswashing accusations regarding his kingdom’s sports investments, which include LIV Golf and a planned partnership with the PGA Tour.
It’s shocking we’ve made it this long without ever asking Woods his opinion on the matter, but the good people at TaylorMade righted that wrong this week, asking the 15-time major winner what he believes is the greatest golf shot he’s ever hit.
Match play brings out a sentimentality of sportsmanship. Handshakes and hats off at the conclusion of the match and putts generously conceded during it.

The priority ties back to Lewis’s first taste of the Read more…
CASERAS, Spain — She was sitting quietly, as this unassuming soul tends to do, at the back of the Solheim Cup media center focused on the pre-match interviews here at Finca Cortesin. Which is ironic. Because Mickey Walker, Europe’s captain in the first four editions of the biennial encounter with the United States (1990-92-94-96), is Read more…
We spend so much time talking about the Ryder Cup that it’s almost a shock when it actually arrives. Wait, you mean they’re actually going to play this thing? That time has come at last, in one week, the players and captains and media will all be in Italy preparing for the start of the Read more…
The approach of the fall golf season is a great time to take stock of your golf gear to see what may need to be replaced or upgraded. Check the bottom of your golf shoes, are they worn thin? Is traction lacking or is your foot leaning to one side? Sacrificing support and traction when Read more…
The ordeal was a stressful start to the week, with Kang putting out pleas for help on social media and her captain Stacy Lewis working behind the scenes to locate the missing bag.
