It’s Tiger Woods’ week even though he won’t take a single swing. The 15-time major champ is the host of the Hero World Challenge and was on hand early in the week to sit down and talk with the assembled media, talking about the state of the PGA Tour, his health and his chances of Read more…
Last week, Paige Spiranac finally addressed the cheating allegations that had hounded her in the wake of the Internet Invitational.

Scottie Scheffler will have yet another chance to make a bit of golf history this week, as he can become the first golfer to go back-to-back-to-back at the Hero World Challenge.
