The Players Championship is one of the PGA Tour’s marquee events, and the boys at tour headquarters are continuously trying to get fans to refer to it as the fifth major. Everyone that isn’t employed by the tour has resisted that moniker, but in some ways, TPC Sawgrass can be […]
The PGA Tour tees off at one of its marquee events — The Players Championship — which begins first-round play at TPC Sawgrass on Thursday. The tournament regularly attracts one of the best fields of a non-major event, this year featuring 47 of the world’s top-50 ranked golfers. One noticeable […]
Brooks Koepka had a short, profane, and possibly costly remark when asked about the state of his golf game last Sunday. “Still s***. Still s***. Putting better,†Koepka told reporters after his final round at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. The obscenity might earn a fine from the PGA Tour, but […]
The PGA Tour announced its new, nine-year domestic media rights deals on Monday. The 2022-2030 contracts with CBS, NBC, and ESPN+ reportedly represent a 70% increase over previous packages. The PGA’s television ratings have been lackluster this year. NBC’s Honda Classic drew the fewest third and final-round viewers of the […]
Tiger Woods may not be concerned with missing his fourth tournament in as many weeks, but those that set the Masters odds certainly are alarmed. Woods, who was a favorite at 8/1 odds just a month ago is now listed at 20/1. Jeff Sherman, vice president of risk management at […]
The PGA Champions Tour is in Southern California this week at the Hoag Classic at Newport Beach Country Club. The golf course is a classic layout and one of the shorter tracks that golfers face all year. The lack of length, however, shouldn’t be confused for being a pushover. A […]
Three times this year, Rory McIlroy has been the favorite going into a tournament, and come up short. It might make some skittish on betting on the world’s No. 1 ranked golfer. Not me, however. I have a feeling the Arnold Palmer Invitational is where the Irishman gets his first […]
Rory McIlroy has been the favorite at three events already this year, and is the top pick at this week’s Arnold Palmer Invitational. The world’s No. 1 golfer has yet to win this year, but he’s come close in every tournament he’s played. This could be the week the Irishman […]
Citing schedule concerns and desire to focus on the FedEx Cup playoffs, Dustin Johnson said on Monday that he will not participate in the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo. In a statement sent to Golfweek, his agent, David Winkle, said Johnson wants to concentrate on the PGA Tour’s season-ending tournaments that […]
When it comes to betting on golf, wagering on PGA Tour favorites thus far has been a losing proposition. Of the 10 events in 2020, only one of the favorites has cashed. That was Viktor Hovland in the Puerto Rico Open, a second-tier tournament the same week as the WGC-Mexico […]
The PGA Champions are at the Cologuard Classic at Omni Tucson National in Arizona after a two-week break. The seniors last played the Chubb Classic, with Scott Parel winning the event. Parel is the third pick this week at 12/1, behind Bernhard Langer (9/1), and favorite Steve Stricker at 6/1. […]
The PGA Tour heads east to Florida for its next four events, beginning with this week’s Honda Classic at PGA National in Palm Beach Gardens. This is one of the toughest-ranked golf courses the pros play and, as a result, many decided to take a pass this week. The highest-ranked […]
Backing last week’s PGA Tour winners, Patrick Reed and Viktor Hovland, was difficult for different reasons, but it might be time to think about wagering on them more often. The two golfers won the two PGA Tour events last week, and each paid bettors well. Reed won the WGC-Mexico Championship, […]
The Premier Golf League could be over before it begins, after No. 1 ranked Rory McIlroy said on Wednesday he would not participate in the new venture. McIlroy said the idea was intriguing, but ultimately, it isn’t right for him. The PGL has been proposed as an alternative to the […]
Dustin Johnson is one of the top Americans playing in the WGC-Mexico Championship this week at Club de Golf Chapultepec in Mexico City. Tiger Woods, Brooks Koepka, and Patrick Cantlay decided to skip it. With those defections, and Johnson being the defending champion, I am taking Johnson as the top […]
The PGA Tour travels south of the border this week for the WGC-Mexico Championship, where the top 72 golfers will play in a high-money event. Even with a lucrative payday in the offing, several star golfers, including Tiger Woods, Brooks Koepka, and Patrick Cantlay are choosing to skip this event. […]
The consolation prize for not qualifying for the WGC-Mexico Championship is the Puerto Rico Open. The second-tier PGA Tour event is played at Coco Beach Golf & Country Club, and gives some lesser-known pros the chance to improve their status, opening the door into more events. Though most of the […]
Brooks Koepka and Tiger Woods haven’t had great starts to 2020, but that hasn’t deterred one sportsbook from offering a prop bet on how many PGA Tour wins they’ll earn this year. BetOnline recently posted the wager for both players, laying odds on whether they will win anywhere from zero […]
PGA Tour stars are skipping this week’s WGC-Mexico Championship, opting to take a week off rather than travel south of the border. Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, and Brooks Koepka are all missing the event. In fact, four of the top-10 ranked golfers in the Official World Golf Rankings are taking […]
After tournaments in Hawaii and Morocco, the PGA Tour Champions is back on the mainland at the Chubb Classic in Naples, Florida. The golfers had a two-week break between the Morocco Champions and this event, so they should be well rested. Defending champion Miguel Angel Jimenez told reporters on Wednesday […]
