Perhaps the best way to describe Sungjae Im’s current life is that he spends the vast majority of his time in the United States, even though does not have a home base in the United States. He lives on the road. Literally. That’s right. Despite playing 29 PGA Tour events in the United States in
Month: February 2020
7:21 PM ET LOS ANGELES — The first-nine 31 he shot on Thursday seems a long time ago. Tiger Woods struggled to the finish at Riviera Country Club on Sunday, posting a 6-over-par 77 and producing one of the worst 72-hole performances of his career. Afterward, all he could do was smile, throw in some

This is such a good time in golf. This week’s WGC-Mexico Championship marks the first World Golf Championship of 2020, fresh off the best field of the year at the Genesis Invitational.

Harold Varner III stood on the 10th tee Sunday afternoon at Riviera Country Club in a place he hadn’t been very often in his five years on the PGA Tour: tied for the lead late on Sunday. Most of the attention during the final round of the Genesis Invitational had been on his two other
9:21 PM ET LOS ANGELES — Only moments into his pre-round practice session, hitting balls between Rory McIlroy and Dustin Johnson in his traditional Sunday red, it became clear that Tiger Woods was at Riviera Country Club in body but not spirit.

The world is heating up. That is not a reference to climate change but rather to global golf development. While a chill remains on new construction in the United States, the golf market has been boiling in many far-away regions. As has been the case throughout his career on and off the golf course, Greg
PACIFIC PALISADES, Calif. — This time, it’s official. A decade and a half after Adam Scott “won” a truncated (an unofficial) 36-hole tournament here, the Aussie emerged as the last man standing on a frenetic Sunday at an unseasonably fiery Riviera.

PACIFIC PALISADES, Calif. — A trio of world-class players are knotted atop a remarkably bunched leader board. A cluster of lesser-known challengers lurk behind, well within striking distance. The golf course is as good as you’ll find on the PGA Tour. As if all that wasn’t enough, Sunday’s forecast is perfect. We’re near Hollywood, the
The rarest and perhaps most pitiful category of golfer (some would describe it as insufferable) is the golf course architecture fanatic. No one has ever been able to explain why a small number of irretrievably corrupted souls happen to gravitate toward golf courses and architecture above all other parts of the game, but all I
Back in action, Tiger Woods isn’t just the host of this week’s Genesis Invitational, he’s seeking a record-breaking 83rd victory on the PGA Tour in the tournament.
