Fresh off a winning season on the PGA Tour in the United States, rising Australian golfer Karl Vilips will compete in this year’s men’s Australian Open at The Royal Melbourne Golf Club in December.

The 30-year-old played plenty of good golf and made plenty of money during 2025, but there were no great weeks. For the first time since turning pro in 2016, Rahm failed to hoist an individual trophy.
Marco Penge is heading to the US in 2026, which includes a stop at Augusta National, after the Englishman outlasted Dan Brown in a playoff to capture the Open de Espana.
Collin Morikawa called for “absolute chaos” in an effort to rally American fans ahead of the Ryder Cup, and he was asked in Japan about those comments.

By now, golf fans are well aware of the verbal abuse showered on Rory McIlroy during the Ryder Cup. And even some beer that got showered near the five-time major champ and his wife. Disgusting stuff.
