Golf for @TheAthletic. Pomona College @SagehenGolf alum. NYC. Never met a 25-foot par putt I didn’t like.
A course can be one of the world’s best without an exclusionary model — that’s how it was always supposed to be. On Royal Portrush, the contrast of American country club culture and preserving golf’s egalitarian roots, for @TheAthletic: nytimes.com/athletic/64910…
“Omg am I gonna have to pee a lot?” “I can’t believe I’m actually doing this.” “Wait I’m burping. That’s normal.”
It’s happening.
Bennett Scheffler is literally growing up in front of our eyes during 18th green trophy ceremonies, with dozens of world class photographers snapping away. That baby album is going to SLAP
I did it!!!! Thank you to my friends/family/sponsors. I don’t do this for a living but it does fulfill me #blessed
We all are witnessing how great Scottie Scheffler is becoming. But where does this four-year run actually stand? Deep dive on the company Scottie is joining. nytimes.com/athletic/65072…

Here’s @GabbyHerzig on Scottie Scheffler and perfection at Portrush. We’re running out of ways to say how good the man is. This is a mighty try — nytimes.com/athletic/65051…
This was my favorite piece of the week. I was in the UK in ‘23 and ‘24 during the Open and I didn’t realize how much I missed it this year until we wrapped our show today and I walked outside into the searing Florida heat. Open Radio made it feel just a little closer this week🙏
Good morning from Portrush. Do yourself a favor today and listen to something different. My story on the sound and the charm of Open Radio: nytimes.com/athletic/65008…
Scottie Scheffler and Haotong Li may be the friendship we didn't know we needed
