Even on video replay, it’s tough to tell if Sahith Theegala touched the sand in a bunker Saturday at East Lake, but he’s apparently pretty certain he did. After hitting his tee shot on the 4th hole of the third round at the Tour Championship Saturday, Theegala called over a PGA Tour rules official to tell him he believed he touched the sand while playing his approach from a fairway bunker a hole earlier.

There may not be a hotter club in high-level championship golf right now than the mini driver. As players hit it farther and farther, some would rather have a club after their driver that fits in a particular distance window for tighter and shorter holes that their driver simply can’t find.

Think back seven months, to late January. Seven months to the day, actually. January 30th, 2024 — the day Tyrrell Hatton officially joined LIV Golf. It was a poorly kept secret at that point, but the details around his departure were still a bit confusing. Hatton had played in Hawaii, then raced over to Dubai. That’s PGA Tour into the the DP World Tour. How had he decided that LIV was what came next? The truth is, he wasn’t completely sure of everything. And he knew he was going to have to explain himself to a specific group of people: the Ryder Cup group chat.

Jay Monahan is by most accounts a decent guy. But even decent guys sometimes have to trade in deception. Like, for example, during the second act of your twice-a-year media availability assessing the state of your employer’s business, when a reporter has just asked you a particularly thorny question. Ethics and morality say you should try to answer the question honestly, but about a zillion years of public relations research shows it’s best not to answer at all.

Ever since golf was first played, the objective for players on the greens has not changed: Knock the ball in the hole dead center. For some golfers, that means using a putter where the shaft is dead center as well. Recently, Lydia Ko won the AIG Women’s Open at St....

Providers of Denver’s traditionally homeless have been finding unhoused migrants in their lines, too, in search of everything from diapers to shampoo. An organization that for decades has provided services to Denver’s unhoused, Haven of Hope, may land a $6 million contract to administer the Denver Asylum Seekers Program for the migrants.

It all started on the 8th hole with an observation and a question: “It’s got to be significant, surely?” Matt Fitzpatrick said to a PGA Tour rules official as they both took a closer look at his Titleist TSi driver. A crack was now present on the face Fitzpatrick deemed significant enough to alter the club’s performance negatively. The rules official disagreed.

Angry Aurorans and Denverites on social media poked fun at the news media Friday as more information came out about Venezuelan gangs on the Front Range. Aurora Mayor Mike Coffman posted on Facebook that the city will use court orders to shut down additional apartment complexes that have been infiltrated by the gangs. It seemed to contradict comments made by Gov. Jared Polis, who said the gang problem was a figment of Aurora council member Danielle Jurinsky’s imagination.

Van Gogh never got to enjoy his own historic success as an artist (even though we've been able to imagine what that moment might have looked like). But it turns out that those of us who have appreciated his work have been missing out on some critical details for more than 100 years.I'm not easily impressed, OK?I know Van Gogh was a genius. If the point of this were "Van Gogh was a mad genius," I would not be sharing this with you.

In 125 years, millions of people have looked at this painting. No one really saw it until recently.
