He’s got nothing left to prove on the competitive field, his play in TGL has been a joke, and legacy-wise there’s little upside for him in joining the Champions Tour. Commissioner Woods, your destiny awaits you.
The PGA Tour announced a seismic shift in its leadership structure Tuesday, naming NFL veteran Brian Rolapp as chief executive officer of both the tour and PGA Tour Enterprises. You have questions, we have (some) answers. Here is what you need to know about the tour’s leadership transition:
Harry Vardon made $US200 after winning the 1900 US Open. And just this week, a golf ball he played to win at Chicago Golf Club was sold for $US194,259 ($A298,000). Yes, there’s inflation and 125 years to account for, but that’s quite the monetary leap for a Spalding “Vardon” Flyer.
Motor City Golf Club is the worst-kept secret in (simulator) golf. Earlier this month, reports surfaced that TGL—the upstart simulator golf league from Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy—had filed a trademark for the franchise moniker.
Golf fans got the first Tiger Woods update since the 15-time major champ announced earlier this month that he’d undergone surgery to repair a ruptured left Achilles. It just didn’t come from Tiger Woods.
The avid golfer shared the video that was dubbed with Gary Koch’s famed “Better than most!” call from Woods’ iconic make on TPC Sawgrass’ 17th hole during the third round of the 2001 Players Championship.
On Wednesday morning (AEDT), Tiger Woods posted on his social media accounts that he ruptured the achilles tendon in his left leg while training, and earlier that morning underwent “minimally invasive” surgery to repair the tendon.
