The Phoenix Open, RBC Heritage, Wells Fargo Championship and Travelers Championship will now all have $20m (£17.8m) prize purses

I see Charlie and Tiger are sporting matching limps at the PNC

The Big Easy · 17-12-2022 10:29pm

How do they decide the tees? Tour pros - easy enough back tees

Seniors like Paddy and JD?

Former pros like Trevino?

Juniors like Charlie?

Then amateurs?

This is what I read yesterday

Yellow 7,094 yards : PGA Tour pros 54 years old and younger;

Thanks Paulos, good to see Trevino out there anyway

Watching the Sentry Tournament of Champions the past few nights and Morikawa looks so good. His putting looks awesome. He'll be unstoppable if he can keep putting that well.

Mantis Toboggan · 08-01-2023 10:21am

24 under through 3 rounds.. not sure if that says more about Morikawa or the tournament.

CSWS101 · 08-01-2023 11:39am

Cam won it with -34 last year. Should realistically be a par 71. It's a resort course so to be expected for them to go low

Dr. Bre · 09-01-2023 1:09am

Incredible turnaround - Rahm leads Morikawa by one. Think Morikawa had about 6/7 shot lead at one stage.

It's weird when top pros start chunking wedges. Pressure and nerves I guess.

AyeGer · 09-01-2023 1:36am

Feel for Morikawa that's the 2nd time this has happened to him on a final round.

In fairness, that is a proper choke from Morikawa! Played like a God for 63 holes (27 under par, no dropped shots) and then dropped 3 shots in a row on holes that he was 7 under for the first 3 rounds!

Hard to believe that a player of his skill and experience could be so fragile but it just shows that golf is not only a test of skill but an examination of mental fortitude. I suppose that's why Tiger won 15 Majors!

Mushy · 09-01-2023 9:29am

Went in to check if he got a higher score than last year's -34. That's some turnaround, not like its a difficult course for them

Dr. Bre · 06-02-2023 7:16pm

Another PGA Tour win for Rose

Rikand · 06-02-2023 10:18pm

Happy for him. Always seemed like a decent sort of chap

eagle eye · 07-02-2023 12:47am

I'd love to know the length of putts Rose had over the tournament. He holed a lot of long putts.

Trampas · 07-02-2023 8:06am

Wasn’t sure if he win again. I wonder did he regret the club transfer move when he was playing great. Was the money worth it

Dr. Bre · 07-02-2023 11:52am

Phoenix Open should be good this weekend. Rahm and Mcilroy joint favourites

Came to post the same thing, he was very solid all week with all parts of his game, great when you're playing with confidence and can hit an errand drive from a bunker on a par 5 to eagle putt territory

Trampas · 11-02-2023 10:28am

Eldrick on the time sheet next week. Nothing like a statement like that to generate attention that liv with all their money couldn’t pay for

Heighway61 · 12-02-2023 12:31am

The amount of adverts on Sky is ridiculous considering they also charge a top dollar sub. And they have removed the red button functionality from Sky+HD for the golf... this tournament anyway.

fullstop · 12-02-2023 1:28am

This 16th hole thing is beyond cringe now. Commentators marvelling at idiots throwing beer bottles at the players.

It's awesome, it's been on my bucket list for a decade. There's nothing like it anywhere, you wouldn't want it everywhere but it's great to have it somewhere.
