Phil Mickelson defected to LIV Golf in 2022. He was one of the first big names to move on from the PGA Tour. Others followed suit and have in the years to come, but Mickelson was one of their biggest gets. He’s also been one of their top players in terms of speaking up on behalf of the tour. That alone has been good for LIV, but Mickelson’s play hasn’t always been. That said, he just did something in Hong Kong that he’s never done before. It was a fantastic outing for the golfer long known by golf fans as…

After this weekend’s Arnold Palmer Invitational, perhaps the biggest non-Major tournament in golf is up next: the Players Championship.

The best golfers in the world should all converge on TPC Sawgrass, but only one can emerge victorious. Who will it be? The odds believe a certain champion from…

Tiger Woods still has yet to make his PGA Tour debut this year. He last played a full tournament in December at the PNC Championship. The last solo outing he had at a tournament was the Open Championship in July. Woods was nearly in the field for the Genesis Invitational, but he backed out after his mother’s passing.

Even if he doesn’t, one golf insider believes Woods’ game is in good enough shape to…

Scottie Scheffler doesn’t lose very often, even when he’s faced with some of the best golfers in the world. He won at a near-historic level last year, including the Olympics and the Masters.

Rory McIlroy has been heavily involved with the PGA Tour’s announced merger with PIF for a long time. Even before that, he was at the forefront of the divide in professional golf. He was long an avid supporter of the PGA Tour, someone who went to bat for it and never shied away from talking down on LIV. He once went viral for saying he wished it would go away. He even said that in the wake of the merger, reiterating that it would still be better if it dissolved. Eventually, he softened on the tour, got more involved with…

If you take a look at the Arnold Palmer Invitational leaderboard right now, you’ll see a surprising few numbers. Comparing last week’s Cognizant Classic (even just the opening round) with this week’s opener at Bay Hill paints a very different picture of golf. Last week, someone almost tied the scoring record and ended up recording the 15th sub-60 score in PGA Tour history. The entire field was playing very well at PGA National. This week at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, no one’s come close to that level of play. Early Arnold Palmer Invitational leaderboard paints ugly picture The Cognizant Classic…

One young fan sat in the stands to watch Tiger Woods at TGL on Tuesday night: his son, Charlie. It was the final outing of the season for Woods, whose team was eliminated before taking the course that evening. While the playoffs are yet to occur, Woods’ season is done, and so is the first-ever regular season. TGL was largely designed to revolutionize golf and give it a new format, but it was also designed to help push the game to new audiences, specifically younger ones. In the first year, the legendary golfer thinks they did just that. Tiger Woods…
