And just like that, two major championships are in the books, and the third is just three weeks away. The heart of the golf season has a way of flying by.
But let’s not jump too far ahead. This week, the PGA Tour makes its final stop in Texas at Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth, home of the Charles Schwab Challenge, formerly known as the Fort Worth Invitational, formerly known as the Dean & DeLuca Invitational, formerly known as the Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial, formerly known as the MasterCard Colonial, formerly known as … ok, you get the point.
The tournament, better known as just plain old “Colonial,” is one of just five tournaments on the schedule to have invitational status, which makes this one of the smallest fields of the year. But that doesn’t mean it lacks star power, with the likes of Rickie Fowler, Bryson DeChambeau, Jon Rahm, Justin Rose, Francesco Molinari and Jordan Spieth. For the first two rounds Spieth will play alongside Kevin Kisner, who edged him out by a stroke in this event in 2017. Rahm and Rose, each with a victory to their names already this season, are the co-favorites.
