When it comes to the “playing golf” part of playing golf, Scottie Scheffler is quite good
Not going to lie and say I love the Olympic Club's Lake Course, but I respect it. It puts you in a cage match against the slope of the property, and if you're not a stellar player, you're probably going to lose. Looking forward to this year's U.S. Amateur.




Pasatiempo was the first great golf course I played, and it means a lot to me. Good to get back there yesterday and see the results of Jim Urbina's renovation. I think the rebuilt 15th, seventh, fourth, and 10th greens (in order below) turned out really well.

.@garrett_TFE spoke with new co-owner Corey Byron about the revival project and delved into the plans from Gil Hanse and his team ⬇️ thefriedegg.com/articles/capst…
After 13 years of ownership roulette and financial turmoil, the Capstone Club in Brookwood, Alabama—one of Gil Hanse’s earliest original designs—closed down in 2014. Now it is being revived with a new name, Coal Club, and a new business model.

"I have to stand up for myself because I'm not going to let someone throw little jabs at me and just make me into someone I'm not." Collin Morikawa followed up on his exchange with a reporter during his pre-tournament press conference at the Rocket Classic.
Wildly underrated golf course. I'm pounding the table on this one: Olde Salem Greens is a bit rough around the edges, but if you want to see the definition of "good bones," play here.
On the hunt for one of the country's finest nine-hole golf courses? Look no further than Salem, Massachusetts and the skillful Stiles-Van Kleek design at Olde Salem Greens.
I'd bet my car (2019 RAV4 hybrid, decent enough) that this pseudo-intellectual gasbag hasn't spent more than 10 minutes in his entire life trying in good faith to understand what "golf course architecture brands" say about anything
