Tiger Woods’ last-place finish at the Masters won’t deter the 82-time PGA Tour champion from competing in the year’s remaining majors. Just the opposite, in fact. Tiger, who made his record 24th consecutive Masters cut, was encouraged by his overall performance at Augusta National. The 48-year-old relied on course knowledge and his nifty short game […]

Scottie Scheffler, Max Homa, and Bryson DeChambeau emerged […]

Despite only completing 24 holes on the PGA Tour in 2024, Tiger Woods believes he can win this week’s Masters if “everything comes together” for him at Augusta National. 15-time major champions tend to be like that. “If everything comes together, I think I can get one more,” Tiger said at his pre-tournament press conference […]

Throwing a ceremonial first pitch in an MLB game may look easy on the outside, but the case isn’t so for those with zero experience in the sport of baseball. Throughout the years, there have been many first pitches that can be described as visually unappealing. From throws that don’t even reach halfway to some […]

Scottie Scheffler’s second round of the Texas Children’s Houston Open went just fine…until the very last putt. Or, make that three putts. Three cringe-worthy, extremely un-Scheffler-like putts. Scheffler is a dominant World No. 1 for two main reasons: His Tiger Woods-level ball-striking, and his general poise. Outside of the rare outburst (caused by his since-retired-putter), […]
