Wayne Gretzky was watching Nick Taylor win the @RBCCanadianOpen. So was a farmer in Saskatchewan. He almost crashed his tractor when the last putt went in. It took us months, but we found the guy. It led to one of my favorite stories ever. @ntaylorgolf59.

I love the @PGATOURLIVE featured groups this summer that have displayed the TOUR’s young talent. Clanton was with Rory and Ludvig in Canada, then Spieth at the Travelers. Now Thor and Potgieter are alongside one of the top players of the year. A great watch for the diehards.

I find it interesting that 3 of the top 4 on TOUR in ball speed are from Denmark, the same country where Trackman was invented. Obviously, two of those players are twins. Could be nothing more than coincidence. But I wonder if there was any sort of early adoption in instruction.

With his win at the Travelers Championship, Keegan Bradley enters the top 10 in the Official World Golf Ranking for the first time since Aug. 4, 2013. Rory McIlroy is the only other player who was in the top 10 both that week and this week.

The first project in my new role. Loved working with @frank_nobilo, @mark_immelman, @NickDougherty5 and @LukeKerrDineen and so many others to tell the story of Rory’s career and his staying power. Airs on CBS at 2:30 and PGA TOUR YouTube.

A year ago, J.J. Spaun thought his career may be over. Now he’s a U.S. Open champion. “Halfway through the season it was looking like I was going to be done,” he said earlier this year, “like not going to finish (top) 125, and I kind of was thinking about, ‘Hey, I played eight.

The first score that U.S. Open leader Sam Burns ever posted on the PGA TOUR?. 89. He was a high school senior who got into the Valero Texas Open after winning the Junior PGA Championship. Playing a penal TPC San Antonio, he teed off in 45 mph winds. But it showed his

Final round of the 2018 Honda Classic. Sam Burns is a Korn Ferry Tour player competing on a sponsor exemption. Tiger is in the midst of another comeback. They’re paired in one of Sunday’s final groups. Walking off the tee, Burns turns to Tiger and says, “It’s pretty incredible

Talk to those around Sam Burns and they applaud his mental toughness. He’s going to need it today. This ball is one example they cite. Read it closely and it says “First par. 2016 SEC. Hole 8.” And it is signed by Sam. Burns, the 2014 AJGA Player of the Year, got off to a

Jhonattan Vegas’ lead at the PGA Championship is a good opportunity to recall his incredible route to the PGA TOUR, one that involved sacrifice, risk and an indomitable optimism. Jhonattan was 17 when he moved to the United States from Venezuela, arriving with just his clubs, a.

Sepp Straka is one of the most accurate players on TOUR. He’s 2nd in SG: Approach and 14th in Driving Accuracy. And now he’s a top-10 player in the world. You’ll often see him hitting shots with an alignment stick under his right armpit. Watch below to learn why.

Sepp Straka’s path to becoming a top-10 player in the world:. His twin brother drew more interest from college coaches. Sepp had to redshirt at Georgia because of the chipping yips. He made just one cut in his first season on PGA TOUR Americas, spent two years on the Korn Ferry

Max Homa is T10 halfway through the Truist Championship. The most promising sign is his play off the tee. He's 4th in SG: Off-the-Tee, 1st in Driving Accuracy and 9th in Driving Distance this week. He entered the week ranked 120th or worse in all three stats for the season.
