Train lead singer Pat Monahan has much to be proud of in his career. His band has won multiple Grammys, had 14 songs on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart and sold more than 10 million albums and 30 million tracks worldwide. And yet, he might be most proud of the fact he’s played in seven AT&T Read more…
To start this all off, I just want to say that I’ve yet to attend a Masters, and I’d really love to at some point, so this is purely a retelling of a Kenny Mayne story from a podcast. Not a flourish to be seen here. And Augusta National, I’ll hopefully see you down the Read more…
The average swing thought could send your run-of-the-mill golfer into therapy. Every so often, there’s a positive, maybe even helpful idea. But for the most part, it’s cursing out oneself, coming up with bizarre strategies or cursing out other people. One can only imagine the Alice-in-Wonderland-esque rabbit hole that Jordan Spieth frequently falls into. The Read more…
There have been 62s shot before at Pebble Beach and plenty more recorded in PGA Tour history, but none have ever looked like the one Ryo Hisatsune fired on Thursday. The 22-year-old Japanese star went super low to take the lead at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am on Day 1 despite not hitting his golf Read more…
It’s Signature Season, and that means it’s time for the return of Golfpocalypse, your weekly guide to the most intriguing storylines on the PGA Tour and major calendar, and also whatever random golf content is on my mind.

On Monday evening, former U.S. Amateur runner-up Neal Shipley made the first ever hole-in-one in TGL history. This combines two of my least favorite things our great sport has to offer: hitting balls into a screen and hole-in-one debates. Here’s my old school, no B.S., potentially very unpopular take on this matter – if you Read more…
Travis Kelce is one of the greatest tight ends in NFL history, he’s been a Super Bowl hero, and it’s just a matter of time before he’s inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. But the biggest ovation of his sports career may have come on Wednesday on a golf course. The Kansas City Read more…
Most NFL fans know Brandon Aubrey as the Dallas Cowboys kicker who makes 60-yarders look like extra points with his powerful right leg. But it turns out he has plenty of pop with a driver in his hands as well. Football and golf fans found that out earlier this week during the Pro Bowl Games, Read more…
Picture this: you’ve flagged an approach shot. Or maybe stuffed one on a par 3. A crisp, quality 7-iron that Roy McAvoy would dream of. You arrive at the green to see you have three, four, maybe five feet left for birdie. Next stop: the PGA Tour. Then, you hear those fateful words from a Read more…
For the better part of a season and half on TGL, Kevin Kisner has played the role of comedic relief. In Jupiter Links’ first-ever match, Kiz skulled a bunker shot that would have decapitated a bystander had it not struck the flagstick first, leaving teammate/boss Tiger Woods doubled over in tears of laughter. Since then, Read more…
As Justin Rose polished off his 13th career PGA Tour victory on Sunday at Torrey Pines, I couldn’t help but say out loud “wow, what an all-time great career this guy’s had” to no one in particular. That was followed by an immediate, intrusive thought. “Boy, we really throw around that ‘all-time’ tag liberally.” In Read more…
It’s a big weekend in our weird little corner of the sports world. Brooks Koepka is back on the PGA Tour, the PGA Tour is back on ESPN and Patrick Reed officially begins his European arc. But if you need to find us, we’ll be over here watching a bunch Average Joes thin it through Read more…
