At most golf courses, cath paths are part of the experience. Golfers often like to play golf while riding around the course in a cart, and most golf courses accommodate golf carts with paths specifically for them. However, cart paths on the golf course are often in play for golfers....

Golf Talk Today: First Round Of John Deere Classic is exciting, historic birdie-fest

There was a time in golf when speed, and distance, was treated as a highly flammable concept among tour professionals. It was to be used carefully, and cautiously. The goal was to find just as much as you needed, and never more. Too much meant uncontrollable spin, which would send the ball away wildly. A fiery inferno you'd struggle to tame. It was only when Tiger Woods arrived that things began to change.

Bristol, Va. – The Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Bristol has announced a revised timeline for the grand opening of its permanent casino resort. Initially set to begin a phased opening in July, the new target for a fully operational grand opening is now slated for late fall 2024. This change aligns with recent legislation granting casino operators six months to finalize temporary facility projects.

There's no mistaking a PXG ad on television. Something about the combination of hard-rock background music, stark black-and-white graphics and the enthusiastic, gravelly voiceover makes it instantly recognizable. "Nobody makes golf clubs the way we do. Period," it booms. Bob Parsons, the owner of that voice, is correct on two...

It’s official. Golf is a combat sport now. No matter which course you play or what app you scroll, you’ll find golfers of all shapes, sizes and ages locked in physical warfare over the slightest indiscretions. Ungiven gimmes, errant tee shots into neighboring yards, pace of play. You name it, golfers have thrown down over it, including these knuck-chucking Canucks who were seen beating the maple syrup out of each other during a morning tee time at Riverway Golf Course last weekend. Let’s get ready to rumble.

Hitting the ball farther is every golfer’s dream. There are tons of ways to go about adding yardage to the clubs in your bag, but let’s simplify it. This week, Golfweek’s fitness guru and long driver Averee Dovsek demonstrates how to use your feet and arms to generate more speed at different points in the golf swing. Using the ground in the golf swing is commonly talked about by teaching professionals, and we help explain what that truly means when you do so.

Ask pros what their favorite lie is for hitting iron shots, and they’ll say, “The tighter, the better.” Ask a typical amateur, and they’ll likely describe that cushy quarter-inch-high cut of grass just off the fairway. Why? Many amateurs “cast” the clubhead down into the ball. It’s a term that comes from its resemblance to the action required to cast a fishing line into the water. The surest way to hit crappy irons is to start the downswing with this casting motion of the hands and arms. To compress the ball and squeeze it off the turf, you need your lower body to lead the way.

There's nothing like the feeling of a compressed iron shot. This do-anywhere drill helps you learn how

It was an impressive effort – as it often is with Bernhard Langer – but it wasn’t enough to make the cut at the BMW International Open. In shooting 1-over 73 Friday in Munich, Germany, Langer finished two below the cut line, drawing to a conclusion his final DP World Tour appearance.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

Within hours of the sighting on Wednesday, Frank van Manen caught word that there was a grizzly sow with five cubs in tow spotted in Yellowstone National Park. Five cubs following mom is so unlikely that van Manen, who leads the Interagency Grizzly Bear Study Team, pondered an explanation.

A study published in the science journal NeuroQuantology concluded that if you foam roll for less than 30 seconds on any particular muscle group, you're pretty much wasting your time. In fact, the good stuff really doesn't kick in until you're rolling a spot for 90 seconds (three sets of 30 seconds). File that nugget away the next time you're thinking of improving your mobility.

Feeling sore? Here's everything you need to know about foam rolling

So yes, it would be something of a stretch to proclaim this a mystery of the totally bewildering variety. It hardly compares with the legend of Bigfoot, the existence or otherwise of the Loch Ness Monster or the fate of the crew on the Marie Celeste. But what is for sure is that the recent and by now lengthy European dominance of the biennial Ryder Cup matches continues to perplex, if not stun, professional golfing circles. And yes, given the overwhelming events of last September in Italy, the wave of Old World victories sees no sign of ending anytime soon. What started as a puzzlement became a real trend and is now viewed as almost an inevitability. Not since 1993 has America won the trophy on foreign soil.
