The Tiger and the GOAT

The greatest Masters Sunday. The greatest sporting comeback. The Greatest Of All Time. As Tiger Woods made the turn on Sunday at Augusta, a fifth Green Jacket and fifteenth Major felt simultaneously inevitable and impossible.

It will go down not only in golf history, but ...

We’ve all seen the same stats flying around the golf world in the last week or two. Some interesting, some not so much. However, the one that caught my eye is a first-timer stat: The first time that the World Top 10 enter The Masters without a title to their name. This may seem like a negative at...

History & Tradition

As golf grows increasingly modern with every passing second, The Masters serves as a perfect reminder of what makes golf so incredibly unique as a sport: Tradition. The Green Jacket is perhaps the greatest time capsule in golf.

This is a tournament laden with history. C...

Won't Somebody Think of the Children?!

Golf is active, but doesn’t exclude less-sporty children. Golf is challenging, but fun for all abilities. Golf engages the mind, but also the body.

When you return to a golf course where, twelve months earlier, you were downright humiliated in the final, who is the last man you want to come up against in your first match-play round?

Field of Dreams

The world’s best always gather at TPC Sawgrass. They did it every March for 33 years, then in May for 11 years and now they’ve gathered in March once more. Tiger Woods is back. That’s the headline. There’s no point in pretending it’s not. Having withdrawn from the Arnold Palmer I...

The PGA Tour well and truly got into its 2019 swing at Bay Hill, yet there was a real European Tour feel about the Arnold Palmer Invitational. Race to Dubai Champion Francesco Molinari (-12) topped the pile, ahead of 5-time European Tour winner Matthew Fitzpatrick (-10) in second, Tommy Fleetwood...
