Brian Harman wasn’t treated kindly by the Royal Liverpool crowds during his Open Championship conquest. Luckily, the reception back home in the United States was more fitting for the Champion Golfer of the Year.
Earlier this week PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan released a wide-ranging memo to membership, outlining the tour’s endeavours towards a deal with Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund as Monahan and tour leadership attempt to regain and rebuild trust with players. On Thursday, one of those players detailed the reception to Monahan’s efforts.
When Jay Monahan let slip a memo assuring PGA Tour players he would be informing the USGA and R&A that the tour would not endorse a golf ball rollback proposal, don’t think for a minute that he was simply updating his constituents.
Sydney native Daniel Gale made history on Monday during the qualifier for the PGA Tour’s 3M Open in Minnesota. By Friday, he was making headlines for a homemade, efficient swing.
Think that’s the rarest of blunders? Think again. The potential for having an extra club in your bag is real, whether you’re a tour pro or an average golfer.
