PONTE VEDRA BEACH, FL - For over a year, we have been saying, "if Scottie Scheffler could putt, he would win everything." The defending champion of THE PLAYERS Championship just buried the field at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. Even Tiger Woods never successfully defended his title(s) at TPC Sawgrass, but Scheffler looks tough to beat. You'll…

Let's get real: we have 15 days until THE PLAYERS Championship and approximately 40 (days) until round one at Augusta National! One player in the top 10 of the OWGR has won this year (Wyndham Clark), and Jake Knapp just stole the show in Mexico. We all love a Cinderella story, but to be honest, the stars need to step up. 13 of the top 40 in the…

PEBBLE BEACH, CA - Watching the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-am is going to be a completely new experience.
