Phil Mickelson is such a weiner
A rite of spring, The Masters, is sneaking up on us. It’s less than three weeks away. It’s about the first time anyone seriously pays attention to golf, though the recently concluded Players Championship might have stolen some of that shine. Still, the entire sports world generally casts a stare at ...
Look at Tiger Woods saying good morning… from the golf course!
Tiger Woods is swinging golf clubs again. It’s not at a tournament, or what even looks like a practice round, but a club is technically making contact with a ball.

Hear me out: Snoozy Olympic golf should move to match play
I get it. Golf isn’t for everyone. Just like how some people consider baseball too slow for their viewing pleasure, golf suffers the same fate to an even larger extent. However, golf at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics has had even the most diehard golf fans falling asleep. ...
Old Man Mickelson becomes oldest golfer to win a major
Before the 2021 PGA championship, Vegas gave Phil Mickelson 200-1 odds to win his sixth major. You probably didn’t give him much of a chance, either. Lefty came in 69th place in his last tournament and missed the cut at the one before. He couldn’t crack the top 20 at the 2021 Masters. Hell, he could...

With anti-Asian violence on the rise in America, Hideki Matsuyama displayed class and dignity while making golf history
Looking through the list of Masters winners, there are a lot of American Flags. It wasn’t until 1961, 27 years after the inaugural Masters (then referred to as the Augusta National Invitation Tournament) that a non-American won the tournament for the first time — Gary Player, of South Africa. Player...
Will Zalatoris is around if Mr. Gilmore ever needs a caddie

How November, and Dustin Johnson’s stellar play, gave us a truly unique Masters
In the most unique Masters tournament of our lifetime, Xander Schauffele had 71 yards left into the 15th green during Thursday’s opening round. It was a delicate shot which called for Schauffele to carry the ball at least 70 yards due to the slope of the green that feeds directly into a pond that gu...
