The 18th Solheim Cup matches are set to take place this week in Andalucía, Spain. Just a little north up the south east coast above Gibraltar, Finca Cortesin will host 24 of the best players Europe and America has to offer. The matches started back in 1990. The American side holds a 10-7 edge in the previous 17. Both teams have winning records at home (US 7-2, Europe 5-3) and losing records away (US 3-5, Europe 2-7). The European team is going for three cup wins in a row!
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…
The 2025 PGA TOUR season starts three weeks from tomorrow! Remove a couple of holidays, weekends, and we are literally 11-12 days away from the trade-winds of Kapalua. While you wait, I present the Grant Thornton Invitational. Formally the QBE Shootout cash grab that started back in 1989, the event has transitioned into a mixed PGA TOUR…

I think what makes Ross unique are the green complexes. False fronts, some slope front to back, bunker placement and THE undulations all characterize his…
We love the Portland Classic. The 2022 Champion Andrea Lee (+4500) was our eleventh winner of the 2022 season. Returning to Columbia Edgewater Country Club brings back good memories and with our success on Sunday, gives us a chance for TWO back-to-back wins (two years in a row and two weeks in a row).
L’ÎLE BIZARD, QUEBEC, CAN Twenty-four of the world’s best players have traveled to Montreal, Quebec, Canada for the fifteenth Presidents Cup. Ironically, it was started in 1994 at the Robert Trent Jones Golf Club in Gainesville, Virginia. Yes, the same course used for the Solheim Cup two weeks ago. Since then there have been 14 matches over…
For the fifteenth time in 13 months, we finished second in a PGA TOUR event. Rory McIlroy’s late charge was the fourth runner-up in the last five events! And with every close call, I become more and more focused on winning. Trust me, I don’t need the USA Hockey team(s) to win a gold medal…
