Scheffler won the Memorial Tournament and enters this week’s US Open at Pinehurst as the first player since Tom Watson in 1980 to have five wins on the PGA Tour before America’s national championship.
The approach game was quintessential Scheffler, as he ranked first in strokes gained/approach the green, gaining a remarkable 13-plus strokes on the field. He also topped the field in greens in regulation.
In one of the smallest contingents in the history of the Memorial Tournament, just two Australians will tee it up at Jack Nicklaus’ prestigious event at Muirfield Village in Ohio.
The appearance kicks off the usual two-year cadence for the company’s woods launches, and Titleist also indicated that GT fairway woods will be making the rounds at this week’s Memorial Tournament.
Robert MacIntyre’s RBC Canadian Open win with his dad caddieing for him is one of the best feel-good golf stories in recent memory. But a call home with his mother shortly after was just as awesome to watch.
Father’s Day came early for Dougie MacIntyre, who showed up for a one-off caddieing gig in Canada and wound up helping son Robert to his first PGA Tour title.
It’s not often a winner ranks outside the top 25 in both strokes gained/off the tee and approach to the green (29th and 44th, respectively), but MacIntyre came up big around and on the greens.
