When Scottie Scheffler wins, he cries. In other words, he's done a LOT of crying this year. It's gotten to a point where it doesn't even feel special when he gets choked up anymore. Save some tears for the rest of us, Scot!. Then again, Olympic tears—gold medal tears—hit very,...

SAINT-QUENTIN-EN-YVELINES, France — The Albatros course at Le Golf National plays as a par-71 every day of the year, with a brutish closing par 4 where players dodge water and bunkers off the tee and fly their long- to mid-iron approach shots to a green surrounded almost entirely by water. It is the closing to a rousing finish of three water-filled disaster holes sandwiched around a long uphill par four that routinely plays over par. Every day. Men, women, juniors or seniors, World Amateur Team Championships. Every day.

The European Ryder Cup team announced a major revision to its automatic qualification system for the 2025 match at Bethpage Black. The team, which is run by the DP World Tour, had previously used a two-list format for automatic qualifiers, picking from a European Points standing (a nod to performances on the DP World Tour) and World Points standing (bringing in play at the majors and PGA Tour events). The Euros have abandoned that format, instead opting for just one standing that will award six automatic spots, one which will favor global and American play over the Old World circuit.

For the first 11 holes of his final round, Victor Perez wasn't making all that much noise. Two birdies, no bogeys, 10 under for the tournament. Quite a few shots back. At the time, the possibility of medaling was likely not even on his mind. Then things got real, real...

It’s not often we’re left speechless by a golf story. First of all, it’s our job as writers and journalists to find something to say. Second, after many years in this business, if we haven't seen it all, we've at least seen most of it. Nothing could possibly surprise us, right?

The Portland Classic was a lifeline opportunity for players buried on the LPGA's priority list. The 53-year-old tournament made it four straight weeks with an event, starting across the Atlantic with the Amundi Evian Championship in early July. With top players either heading to the Olympics or taking a week off, 11-year LPGA veteran Moriya Jutanugarn capitalized by playing the first 71 holes bogey-free, finishing at 22 under for her third career victory.

It was a back nine that Jon Rahm will rue for the rest of his career — and Brandel Chamblee was not interested in sugarcoating it.

The Spaniard had a four-stroke lead entering the back nine on Sunday at Le Golf National with a gold medal in sight at the Paris Olympics.

Rahm proceeded to shoot a 39 to not only miss out on gold, but fall off the medal stand altogether.



“I’m going to put that down as one of the biggest collapses, chokes of the year,” Chamblee said in the NBC studio after the event. “Right up there with Rory Mcilroy...

The Wyndham Championship is renowned for euphoria and heartbreak. In the last event of the PGA Tour regular season, some of the best golfers in the world will be hoping to sneak into the FedEx Cup Playoffs, with some greats (like Justin Thomas last year) inevitably missing out. That said, if anyone’s purely happy to be there, it’s George Kneiser, the 26-year-old who is set to make his PGA Tour debut after sharing low honors at Monday's open qualifying.

Do you know the name Margaret Abbott? Do you know she's the first woman to win an individual gold medal in the Olympics, and the first-ever woman to a gold medal in golf? It happened in 1900, in Paris, but if you didn't know that bit of trivia, forgive yourself—Margaret Abbott didn't know it either, right up until the day she died. As far as the Chicago-based socialite knew, she had simply won a nine-hole golf tournament while studying in Paris against a handful of other women, and then moved on with her life. It was only many years after her death, when a University of Florida researcher contacted her son, that anybody in the family knew what she had accomplished.
