With the Masters a few weeks out a number of high-profile players skipped the trip to Southampton for this week’s Bermuda Championship, leaving a wide-open field to battle for the full allotment of FedExCup points that are available. The tournament got a boost in status for its second playing, but the timing couldn’t have been worse. Fans that will be allowed to witness the event live ... 

The PGA Tour returns to Southampton this week for the second edition of the Bermuda Championship. A bump up in status means a full allotment of FedExCup points, however that wasn’t enough to attract the bigger names on Tour. With the Masters a few weeks away most of the Tour’s elite opted against the additional travel. That leaves the door open for younger players to make a statement l... 

The second edition of the ZOZO Championship gets a new venue and the most galvanizing figure in the game.

Another reshuffling of the PGA Tour schedule has this year’s edition of the ZOZO Championship taking place at Sherwood Country Club in Thousand Oaks, Calif.

In the meantime 78 players will tee it up at the Jack Nicklaus-designed course nestled at the base o...

The Tour couldn’t completely avoid th...

Las Vegas is a destination location and the PGA Tour caught on scheduling its own mini Vegas Swing. I guess there could be worse places to spend a few weeks.

It’s not a high-profile tournament on the PGA Tour but the Sanderson Farms Championship does offer a full allotment of FedExCup points to the winner as a stand-alone event for the second straight year.

When COVID shut down the PGA Tour back in March it also took three major championships with it. The reimagined schedule placed two of golf’s premier events on the new season slate with the first of those taking place this week. Three months after its originally planned date, the 120th U.S. Open tees off from Winged Foot Golf Club in New York. It also gives bettors a chance to make up for lost action due to the shutdown. And what’s a major without Tiger Woods? The Big Cat struggled this season, b...
