The PGA Tour season's third major is in the books, and the stretch run is right over the horizon as many of the tour's top golfers get set to play in the 2022 Travelers Championship. The short trip over to TPC River Highlands near Hartford, Conn., brought many players from the U.S. Open, played last week in Brookline, Mass. Five of the top 11…

If the college basketball March Madness action wasn't enough for you last week, golf has its own version in Texas this week as the world's best congregate one final time before the Masters, which starts in just two weeks (!). Though a handful of the top players in the world will be absent this week, we still get a very different look at the…

Like Mickelson, Torrey Pines is Schauffele's home course and he finished runner-up there at…

Just 19 golfers in the history of the sport have won at least five major championships. There are two players who have an opportunity to become No. 20 if either can win the 2022 U.S. Open, Rory McIlroy and Brooks Koepka.

Even with all of the young talent on the PGA Tour, you still have to look all the way back to 1922 to find the youngest winner of the PGA Championship.

A distinctive characteristic of the PGA Championship compared to the other golf majors is that it invites all winners of PGA Tour events in the preceding year. It also invites select club professionals. Golfers who meet either criteria will be part of the 156-player 2021 PGA Championship field, which tees off Thursday. Outside of the recognition of…

Americans have dominated the U.S. Open throughout its history, winning 86 of the 121 tournaments, or 71 percent. That stranglehold atop the leaderboard has lessened recently, however, as Americans have won just half of the last 18 editions entering the 2022 U.S. Open. International golfers such as Spaniard Jon Rahm and Irishman Rory McIlroy are…
