Adrien Saddier shot a 4-under 66 to win the Italian Open for his first European tour title in his 200th start. He also earned a spot in the Open Championship.

Padraig Harrington salvaged an up-and-down day with a chip-in birdie from 20 yards out on the 18th hole to pull back into a tie for the lead with Stewart Cink and Mark Hensby at the U.S. Senior Open.

Ever wonder why golfers from the 1960s and ’70s seemed to have such effortless, repeatable swings? There’s a reason Harvey Penick’s Little Red Book remains one of golf’s most beloved instructional classics: his simple thoughts and vivid images captured timeless truths about the swing that still resonate today.

Before launch monitors, swing analyzers and 47 different training aids cluttered the game, pros like Penick relied on simple fundamentals that worked. These time-tested tips got buried under modern instruction complexity but they’re still gold for today’s golfers.

The difference between overthinking your swing and playing with confidence often comes down to embracing the wisdom that built golf’s greatest players—the kind of clear, memorable guidance that made Penick’s little thoughts so powerful.

“Swing the clubhead, not the club”

Old-school pros understood that the clubhead does the work, not the shaft or your hands. They focused on making the clubhead move smoothly through the ball rather than forcing the entire club around their body. This creates natural lag and effortless power.

Think of cracking a whip—you don’t muscle the handle, you let the tip do the work. Your golf swing works the same way when you focus on swinging the clubhead instead of manipulating the shaft.

I use my golf cart more than I use my car. Whether I’m heading to the course, driving around the neighborhood or just doing a loop with the kids, my cart gets a lot of use. While I’m not usually big on accessories, there are a few I’ve picked up over the years that have made golf cart ownership noticeably better. These are the golf cart accessories I wish I had found sooner.

Madsen Golf Magnetic Strap

The strap system on most golf carts can do a number on your golf bag, especially if you’re using a white one. I started noticing scuff marks and abrasions where the cart straps would dig in during a round.

The Madsen Golf Strap is a simple but smart fix. It wraps around your bag to provide a protective sleeve and the magnets are functional for accessories. Your bag won’t slide or get damaged.

A2C Rechargeable Magnetic Golf Cart Fan

Wiring a fan into your golf cart isn’t exactly a weekend project most people want to take on. This rechargeable fan eliminates the need for hardwiring and clips on magnetically. It has a surprisingly strong output for its size and the built-in battery keeps it running long enough for a full round (or two). As a bonus, keeping air moving also helps keep the gnats and mosquitoes off you while the group in front is grinding over another six-footer.

Battery Water Filler Bottle

In the spirit of full disclosure, I’ll tell you that I have this product in my Amazon cart after writing this guide. I’ve been using a dollar store funnel and a jug of distilled water to top off my golf cart batteries. It worked but it’s not as convenient as this thing is.
