Scottie Scheffler did not record a score of five (or more) at TPC Craig Ranch until the twelfth hole on Sunday. That was his only five in 72 holes. Wyndham Clark made 275′ of putts over the weekend, and that completes our recap of the CJ Cup Byron Nelson. Let’s hope for firmer conditions in…
Aaron Rai had a 1.9% chance of winning the PGA Championship when he made the turn on Sunday. Everyone knows I love competitive chaos, and Aronimink achieved it. Congratulations to Rai and his entourage, the PGA of America, and the MVPs of last week, the members of Aronimink Golf Club. Excluding Augusta National, I cannot…
NEWTOWN SQUARE, PA Plenty of narratives (wagering or otherwise) circulated ahead of the 108th PGA Championship at Aronimink Golf Club. Almost all of them were proven false. Rumors of a winning score pushing toward 20 under par were debunked. The driver-heavy approach Rory McIlroy preached after his practice rounds proved to be his undoing. The…
NEWTOWN SQUARE, PA “First, I’ve never seen anything like this. When we were out there, I think it’s just the nature of a lot of different things, but yeah, I’ve never seen a leaderboard like this, this bunched up. Going into tomorrow, it’s quite literally anybody’s tournament. There’s a lot of guys that have a…
NEWTOWN SQUARE, PA “This is the hardest set of pin locations that I’ve seen since I’ve been on TOUR, and that includes U.S. Opens, that includes Oakmont. I did ask, I asked Fooch, who caddies for Justin Rose. He’s been around a long time — and I asked Teddy too — have you seen anything…
NEWTOWN SQUARE, PA Q. Garrick, did you know you were a little bit late at that moment? GARRICK HIGGO: “No, I wouldn’t have been late if I knew I was running late.” On-site all week for the second major championship of the season. Our daily recap notes give you a great perspective from the PGA Championship…
NEWTOWN SQUARE, PA Speaking of stars, they are out in Philadelphia. The 108th PGA Championship is in the city of Brotherly Love and is being contested at Aronimink Golf Club. Designed by Donald Ross in 1928, the course underwent a comprehensive restoration by Gil Hanse in 2016. Hiring Hanse to update the course is a championship move….
CHARLOTTE, NC Welcome to the Truist Championship, a field of 72 players competing for 72-holes at the Quail Hollow Club for $20 million. The Banker’s Open features eight of the top 10 players in the official OWGR. Our next H2H matchup between Scottie and Rory will have to wait until Aronimink. Although one matchup that catches…
DORAL, FL No, this is not a preview of the PGA Championship in Philadelphia. Matt Fitzpatrick just helped Alex Fitzpatrick earn a PGA TOUR card with their team victory in the bayou. The Zurich Classic winners have now combined for five wins in the last six weeks on two tours. I doubt anyone had that…
Congratulations to Hannah Green. Green won her third JM Eagle LA Championship on Sunday in a playoff over Sei Young Kim and Jin Hee Im. Hannah birdied the first playoff hole to take home the title. That’s Green’s third LA Championship win in four years (2023, 2024, 2026)! Quite the accomplishment since two of the…
