It's natural to be nervous about playing in a pro-am, but as long as you focus on these two things, you'll be absolutely fine.

Justin Thomas, when asked Tuesday what advice he would give to Tour rookie Nick Dunlap, recalled the best advice he ever received.

Tyrrell Hatton has left the PGA Tour to sign with the LIV Golf League, where he will be on Jon Rahm's team with Kieran Vincent and Caleb Surratt.
LIV Golf has snagged another top PGA Tour player.
A little over a month after poaching Masters champion Jon Rahm, LIV has signed Tyrrell Hatton to a deal reportedly worth up to $60 million. Hatton had earned just shy of $22 million in 128 PGA Tour starts.
Word spread on Monday when The Telegraph reported that Hatton was set to join Rahm’s Legion XIII team. The official announcement arrived Tuesday, confirming the news.
The LIV season begins this weekend in Mexico, and Hatton will be there for the opener. He had been expected to play on the PGA Tour this week at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am.
This is not particularly surprising—Hatton has been mentioned repeatedly in rumors over the past few months—but it is another significant blow for the PGA Tour.
The U.S. Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations has subpoenaed documents from four U.S.-based consultants working for Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund.
In a world where golf is growing more expensive, it’s always refreshing to find a great deal on brand name golf gear.
Each morning I search the internet (no kidding, I really do) in the hopes of finding a barn burner deal to share with you. Why? I care. You’ve made it clear to me that value and budget-friendly options are important.
If it’s important to you, it’s important to me.
Right now, adidas’ Lunar New Year sale is chock full of great steals and deals. One of which, this slick deal on the S2G spikeless golf shoes, I couldn’t wait to share with you.
This lightweight, waterproof spikeless golf shoe is only $37 and change when you use code LUNAR25.
The PGA Tour and LIV Golf are working toward a partnership that could result in one global tour—or at least more cohesion between the two circuits.
Until that moment comes, if indeed it does, golf’s two biggest tours will continue to be compared.
We like to start with the majors. LIV players performed well in them last year, earning one victory (Brooks Koepka), getting into the mix at the Masters (Koepka, Phil Mickelson, Patrick Reed) and registering a top-five finish in the U.S. Open (Cameron Smith). If you add in LIV newcomer Jon Rahmn, the reigning Masters champion, it’s clear the league is still a key piece in the major conversation.
It’s also an interesting exercise to measure Strokes Gained among all players. Of the top 25 golfers in the Data Golf Rankings, only one (Rahm) is from LIV. Unlike with the Official World Golf Ranking, this data takes all tournaments into account. There is no doubt the game’s best play on the PGA Tour, even if a lot of the game’s biggest names have left.
But here is one more comparison we’re curious about: Does either tour have the edge in driving distance?
I interrupt our regularly scheduled new gear releases to bring you a blast from the past.
Recently, I stumbled upon a few Instagram accounts that specialize in vintage golf hats. As a kid born in the late ’90s, I’ve never been one to appreciate some of the older stuff out there.
Until now.
In case you didn’t know, vintage is in. What’s old is new(ish) again and it’s sending me down a second-hand rabbit hole on eBay to look for the coolest vintage golf stuff money can buy.
I’ve just scratched the surface on what’s out there but I’ve been finding some pretty cool stuff I can’t wait to share with you.

What’s in Chris Kirk’s winning golf bag?
Chris Kirk used a mixed bag of clubs to win The Sentry in Hawaii, with the entire field joining Sungjae Im in setting incredible records. It was the first of eight PGA Tour Signature Events this year, with more ranking points and prize money on offer. The American took home the whopping $3.6m first prize. […]
There is a lot of cool gear in the golf equipment world that doesn’t always fit neatly into Most Wanted Tests or Buyer’s Guides. You still want to know how it performs. In our We Tried It series, we put gear to the test and let you know if it works as advertised.
Costa Diego sunglasses. Tiger Woods was sporting a pair amid the rumors of his eventual split from the Swoosh. If they’re good enough for Tiger, they’re good enough for me, right?
Connor. Director of Soft Goods Testing and resident sneakerhead. I’ve got a huge face (and huge ankles) so the Costa Diego seems like a great fit. It can be a challenge to find sunglasses that fit my face well so I was eager to give these a go.
Costa sunglasses have generally been thought of as sunglasses for sport fishing or water sports. Most of their lens technologies and polarization are designed specifically for fishing, although the crossover opportunities to golf are endless.
In our Most Wanted sunglasses testing earlier this year, Costa sunglasses performed admirably, with most models providing great fit and coverage.
“You’re going to want to roll down your window for the drive in,” the security guard said after checking my driver’s license to confirm I was indeed the same Michael LoRé he had been expecting.
The wooden gate crept open to unveil palm trees, red flowers, green bushes, cacti and carefully curated stones as I was transported from the Southern California desert to an luxury oasis within the foothills of the Santa Rosa Mountains near Palm Springs.
During the drive in, I spotted art installations, later identified to me (certainly more a golfer than art aficionado) as “One Through Zero (The Ten Numbers)” by Robert Indiana and “Your Dog” by Yoshitomo Nara.
Once we arrived at the main estate house, I was greeted by a sea of pleasant faces, eager to help me with my bags and give me a tour of the latest and greatest at Sensei Porcupine Creek, a 230-acre wellness resort that opened in 2022 in Rancho Mirage, Calif.
Founded by Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison and renowned physician and scientist Dr. David Agus, the once-private estate owned by Ellison since 2011 “aims to inspire people to live longer, healthier lives through programs and experiences unique to each wellbeing journey” while focusing on three paths for everyday living: Move, nourish, rest.
Launching a successful brand is difficult. Launching two is even harder. In the case of John Ashworth, co-founder of Linksoul, as well as the cult-classic brand that still bears his last name, Ashworth Golf, that’s precisely what he’s done. (Did I mention helping save legendary golf course Goat Hill in Oceanside, Calif?)
Ashworth’s life has revolved around golf, as he explained when we sat down at Linksoul’s HQ in Oceanside. Our conversation meandered from his memories of his golfing father and grandparents to his time as a collegiate golfer at Arizona to starting the Ashworth brand and beyond. But one thing remained exceptionally clear: golf has been at the center of his life since his youngest years growing up in nearby Escondido.
Ashworth’s passion for the game was born from of his renunciation of Sunday school. “My mom got on this kick of like, ‘Dang it, you kids are going to go to Sunday school.’ So, I went to Sunday school and I just hated it. So I must have complained enough that my dad finally said, ‘You can either go to Sunday school or caddie for me on Sunday mornings.’ I said, ‘Well, I hate Sunday school so I’m going to caddie for Dad.’”
He and his buddies were dawn patrollers. “We’d get a donut, he’d get a coffee, drive out to San Luis Ray. His buddies were great. They were always nice to me. So, yeah, every Sunday I’d go caddie for him and that’s where it all started, I guess.”
Ashworth began playing the following summer after his dad gifted him a set of kid’s clubs. Junior golf followed and, like so many of us, he was hooked. “I was totally in. It was awesome.”
Red Rooster, a favorite brand among Forum members, is back with their second member test of 2023. Earlier, our members had the privilege of testing the unreleased Red Rooster Sussex glove. Its performance was well rated so we were thrilled to get the Red Rooster Rain gloves for Forum member testing.
Red Rooster Rain Gloves were awarded the Best Rain Glove title in 2023 in MyGolfSpy Most Wanted Testing. At that time, we said, “direct-to-consumer brand Red Rooster stormed onto the scene in our 2022 golf glove testing and the newest addition to their lineup is now the best rain glove for 2023. The Rain Rooster glove provides a great fit and supreme comfort without taking away too much club feel.”
Red Rooster prides itself on fit and feel. This was a key focus area for our testers. For golfers who play in rainy conditions, it is critical to have confidence in the fit and grip of the rain gloves. Any slip or bulk will have a dramatic effect on performance.
Tester Bkervin said, “The glove is a little thicker than summer gloves but similar to leather gloves. The fit is snug, it doesn’t slip around on the hand and holds firm… It states it is synthetic but has a little bit of a leather feel to it. It is easy to take on and off with no stretching out of material.”
Tester Clayton said, “The material is nothing like most other rain gloves I’ve had in the past. The ones I play the most have some sort of suede feel. These have a palm and top that feels like a rubberized fabric with a neoprene cuff and sticky rubber roosters. Between the fingers feels like some sort of breathable fabric… The feel is very good. I thought the inside might feel slimy when wet, but they feel awesome, even when soaked completely. The feel to the grips is also very good – I play cords and can still feel flushed vs mishits. The feel side is full points, and I took away points from the fit.”
Nelly Korda rallied to win her hometown LPGA Drive On Championship and delay Lydia Ko's LPGA Hall of Fame entry, outlasting the New Zealander on the second hole of a playoff after overcoming a 3-stroke deficit with an eagle-birdie finish.
The 49ers made history by opening the second half with 27 consecutive points to defeat the Lions after trailing by 17 points at halftime. Their comeback is among the most memorable in recent championship history across sports.
