Captain Donald seeking clarity on LIV situation

Team Europe's Ryder Cup captain Luke Donald is unsure if LIV Golf players will be allowed to feature in next year's event but he says he is committed to picking the strongest 12-man team to challenge the United States.

Norman: LIV's offer to Tiger in $700-$800M range

LIV Golf CEO Greg Norman, in an interview that aired Monday night, confirmed that Tiger Woods turned down an offer between $700 million and $800 million when approached to join the Saudi-backed golf league.

Immediate Effect: Luke Donald Is Named Ryder Cup Captain

The charm of the seaside courses of Great Britain lies in their multiformity, their unconventionality, their infinite variety.

In its uneven diversity, its tumbling irregularity, its unrivaled originality, links-land bears no resemblance to any other territory. ROBERT HUNTER

Spy Kicks: Best Golf Shoes at the Rocket Mortgage Classic

Best Golf Shoes at the Rocket Mortgage Classic

One day when you look back on your life, what are some of the things you might regret? Don’t let wearing lame golf shoes be one of them.

Take this advice from yours truly: the perfect pair of golf shoes is the perfect compliment to your horrendous short game. Heck, if you’re playing with me, your trendy golf shoes may just mask your chipping woes to the point where I wouldn’t even notice. 

You’re here because you need shoe help, and I’m glad you stopped by. Let’s discuss the best shoes I saw this week at the Rocket Mortgage Classic. 

Rickie Fowler in a Custom PUMA PROADAPT Alphacat

I know what you’re thinking; why am I writing about Rickie Fowler again? If I was funny I’d probably say something like “it’s because my favorite color is orange,” but in reality, Fowler’s shoe choice this week caught me off guard.

Because I’d just written about Fowler last week, I didn’t go into this week paying attention to his footwear at all. But as the days trundled on, I noticed that the shoes Fowler was wearing were unfamiliar to me, something that doesn’t happen often. A quick search of Puma’s website didn’t return any promising results, and I was left speculating whether this was a new, unreleased model of shoe.
