Adam Scott is among 14 finalists for the World Golf Hall of Fame’s Class of 2027, alongside Justin Rose, Inbee Park and Jim Nantz, with induction set for St Andrews on 20 July 2027.
Shinnecock Hills has produced some of the US Open’s greatest moments — and most controversial collapses. Ahead of 2026, questions remain about whether the iconic Long Island course can be set up fairly without tipping into chaos again.
Nothing about this course has been predictable except its unpredictability, and the morning’s rogue wave giving way to afternoon carnage has set the stage for a heady brew of final-round chaos.
What changed? Was it inevitable that his irons would click into gear, and that the narrative of him making some drastic, disastrous change to tank the sunset of Rose’s career was overblown?
Just as Rory McIlroy answered every doubt in last year’s Masters win, Rose could have come to the sweetest peace with a victory on Sunday. Instead, he walked away with more kudos for his skill and grit, but the nagging feeling that he still couldn’t do enough to seize a green jacket.
It’s yet another example of the pros being Just Like Us™. No matter how naturally gifted they are, no matter how many millions they’ve won, they’re still tinkering and searching.
Even after Rose’s blowout seven-shot win yesterday at the Farmers Insurance Open, there’s an argument to be made that we’re not appreciating enough just what he’s doing.
Justin Rose steamrolled the field at the Farmers Insurance Open to win by seven shots, top a Tiger Woods record and do something that hasn’t happened since 1955.
As Rose fashioned a historic victory in which he set the tournament’s 36, 54 and 72-hole scoring records, he said he never brought up the past with caddie Mark Fulcher – until the end.
