Rory McIlroy burst onto the golf scene more than a decade ago. He captured four major championships in the first few years of his professional career, building the narrative that he was to be the next ‘Tiger Woods.’ That was obviously an unfair label to put on the Northern Irishman, especially at such a young […]

Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy have taken over the golf world in recent years. But there is no denying that Tiger Woods still moves the needle more than any player in PGA Tour history. Sadly, Woods has gone through a lot in recent months. His mother, Kultida, passed away before the Woods-hosted Genesis Invitational. That […]

While most of the world’s best golfers were at Harbour Town Golf Links watching Justin Thomas snap a near three-year drought at the RBC Heritage, the PGA Tour simultaneously held an opposite field event.

Early in […]

A few days after Rory McIlroy finally captured the Green Jacket at the Masters, the PGA Tour is in South Carolina for the RBC Heritage. One might think the week after playing the season’s first major would lead to most golf stars taking the week off. But that is not the case this week as […]

Rory McIlroy is arguably the greatest golfer of his generation. However, after taking the golf world by storm during his first few years in the professional ranks on the PGA Tour, he ran into a bit of a slump, suffering frustrating failure after frustrating failure in major events.

The year 2024 was a banner year for Nick Dunlap. He won twice on the PGA Tour, which helped him earn the PGA Tour Rookie of the Year title.

A lot has been made of the division within professional golf. The emergence of LIV Golf in 2022 split the sport, with several top PGA Tour stars jumping ship.

The PGA Tour is in San Antonio for the Valero Texas Open this week.

The year’s first major is less than two weeks away, and several PGA Tour top-ranked players are looking to fine-tune their game this week. Unfortunately, the Houston Open saw play halted on Friday afternoon as brewing thunderstorms neared. The PGA Tour […]

Unlike team sports, golf provides more unique, insightful moments for an athlete. It is an individual sport where one’s mental state is challenged just as much as one’s physical gifts. Gary Woodland is the perfect example of this. Woodland underwent brain surgery in September of 2023 to remove a benign tumor. He had experienced seizures, […]

The golf world was fired up earlier this year when Tiger Woods was slated to play in the tournament he hosts the Genesis Invitational.

Patton Kizzire has had a miserable start to his 2025 PGA Tour season. Kizzire has made seven starts thus far and reached the weekend just once at the first event of the season, The Sentry.

On Wednesday, Scottie Scheffler held his official Masters champion’s press conference with media from around the globe.

The PLAYERS Championship is the PGA Tour’s crown jewel event and Sunday delivered the drama at TPC Sawgrass.

The two players […]

There were 144 entrants into this week’s Players Championship, the flagship event of the PGA Tour season. Normally, TPC Sawgrass is one of the most difficult courses players encounter on Tour, but that has not been the case this year. Several players have carded rounds in the mid-60s. But no one has ever accomplished what […]

Through almost two full rounds at The PLAYERS Championship, TPC Sawgrass has been far more receptive to good scores than normal. Several players have carded rounds in the mid-60s, with Min Woo Lee and Akshay Bhatia in the clubhouse, leading at 11-under. That is one end of the spectrum. Wyndham Clark, the 2023 U.S. Open […]

Xander Schauffele is still searching to find the same level of play that saw him capture two major championships in 2024. Much of that has to do with his rib injury that cost him nearly two months.
