Tiger Woods’ possible return is amazing, but will the PGA accommodate his injuries?
The private flight tracking, the Medalist rumors, the never-ending hope — this morning, the last year of Tiger Woods news came to a head when he touched down at Augusta National, home of the Masters, for a practice round that almost no one saw coming.

Phil Mickelson is such a weiner
A rite of spring, The Masters, is sneaking up on us. It’s less than three weeks away.

Still, the entire sports world generally casts a stare at ...

Hear me out: Snoozy Olympic golf should move to match play

Like clockwork, Koepka takes shot at DeChambeau over caddie change
Bryson DeChambeau and Brooks Koepka have formed the best, dumbest rivalry in golf since Happy Gilmore and Shooter McGavin, and honestly I’m fully here for all of it. After DeChambeau announced that he and his caddie would be taking a Ross and Rachel-esque break, Koepka made sure to take the opportun...

Brooks Koepka dominates when the stakes are highest
Brooks Koepka is really good at golf, and he’s really good at golf on the biggest stages. Since the 2017 Masters, he has played in 14 major championships.

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...

How can you not root for ‘old man’ Phil Mickelson?

Santa Claus arrives at PGA Championship dressed to the nines
Red shirt and a pair of olive shorts. No, not the color, like, olives on the shorts. That’s what John Daly wore during a round at Kiawah Island Golf Resort — the site of this week’s PGA Championship.

The PGA Championship: Why it Matters and What to Watch For
Of the four majors of professional golf, the PGA Championship is too often the least anticipated major for most golf fans. Traditionally it was held in August, the final major of the season after the Masters, the U.S. Open and the British Open- tough acts to follow. Last year the tournament was move...

Major Golf Events Are Being Cancelled Everywhere, But States As Hard Hit As N.Y. Still Think It's Safe For Courses To Remain Open
Like every other sport realizing its proper place in a society in crisis, the PGA and professional golf around the globe is undergoing major shifts in its schedule.

You’re Not Sticking To Sports When You Stick To Sports
We live in an age of mass cowardice, and so it’s unsurprising that the PGA—that famed bastion of sporting tolerance—would not only charge ahead with staging a major tournament at a Trump-owned golf course, but also that they would limply try to have it both ways by consigning the President’s flagran...
