Happy Father’s Day indeed.

In general, night golf brings some pros and cons for both consumers and owners of courses.

This team overcame several obstacles to achieve something historic.

The biggest winners of the golfing weekend turned out to be South Korean golfers Sungjae Im and Si Woo Kim, not the European Ryder Cup team.

The United States easily won the last event in 2021 at Whistling Straits in Wisconsin, but hasn’t won a Ryder Cup in Europe since 1993.

How it got out of his possession was accidental, according to an article.

The big hero of the weekend and the man who heard his name chanted the most was Michael Block, a teaching professional from Mission Viejo, California.

Without question, 2022 will forever go down as a memorable one in the sports world with all that was achieved by athletes and teams around the world.

A group of 9/11 family members and survivors met on Thursday to publicly denounce the Saudi Arabia-funded LIV Golf Series, which is from Friday to Sunday at former President Donald Trump’s property in Doral.

In addition to delicious pasties, smoked whitefish, beautiful acreage, waterfalls and coastline, the U.P. does golf better than anyone else in the state.

With St. Andrews fresh on people’s minds after seeing the images this weekend, one might wonder the following: How hard is it to play a round at the Old Course, the home of golf?

The Old Course at St. Andrews is to golf what the Mona Lisa is to art or the Holy Grail is to archeologists.

The term has been thrown around a lot because of what people perceive is taking place with the new LIV golf league.

Lewis Hamilton and Tom Brady took up golf for a cause on Wednesday at the Miami Beach Golf Club.

The Masters was only the beginning to some signature golf events and storylines of 2022.

In addition to the storyline of it likely being Tiger Woods' first tournament since a car accident, this year also marks the 25th anniversary of his first Masters and major tournament win that forever changed the game of golf.

The USGA and R&A now offer a local rule that would allow tours to limit clubs to a maximum of 46 inches.

Here are some key takeaways after the U.S.’s historic 19-9 rout of Europe during this weekend’s Ryder Cup in Wisconsin.

One of last year’s many casualties of the COVID-19 pandemic was the Ryder Cup, which had to postpone its biannual event one year, to this fall.

One of golf’s more entertaining events, the Ryder Cup, begins on Friday and figures to be a lively and must-see event, once again, for golf and sports fans throughout the world.

As most golfers age, there becomes one big goal they want to pursue: To shoot one’s age or lower.

It’s nicknamed “The Himalayas,” and for good reason.

Last week, the field of 60 who will compete in the men’s golf competition at the upcoming Tokyo Olympics was announced, and it will be a decorated field with six of the top-10 golfers in the world rankings included.

Prior to this weekend, it’s not too farfetched to believe that even casual golfers hadn’t heard of Harris English and Kramer Hickok.

Golf is a notable Father’s Day pastime that’s not going anywhere any time soon.

Did that really happen? Yes it did, and it was one of the most memorable moments in recent golfing memory.

Now until April 30, golf fans and Topgolf fans alike can entire Topgolf’s “Win Free Topgolf for a Year and the Ultimate Baller Package” sweepstakes. The sweepstakes includes the most coveted prize — free Topgolf for a year.

Phillip)PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. – PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan is ready for golf to move ahead a year after the COVID-19 pandemic shut down the sport. He remembers a tough week one year ago that began with the tour announcing a multi-billion dollar media rights deal and ended with the tour shutting down for three months. The tour got a big boost from a mobile testing site and cooperation from its players to put health and safety first. Since the return in June, the PGA Tour has played 33 out of 36 weeks in 18 states and four countries without having to shut down.

PINELLAS COUNTY, Fla. – A 74-year-old man was found dead after police say he drowned while searching for his golf ball at a country club in Florida. According to officials from the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office, the tragedy took place at the East Lake Woodlands Country Club, Sunday morning, where 74-year-old Hermilo Jazmines was playing golf with a friend. “Jazmines ‘teed off near the third hole’ and ‘was last seen looking for his ball near the green,’” says the sheriff’s office. They later dispatched their dive team, which “located Jazmines submerged in the water near his putter.”AdJazmines was pronounced dead at the scene. In a press release released by the sheriff’s office, friends of the golfer say he enjoyed searching the golf course for lost balls.

LOS ANGELES – The Los Angeles County sheriff on Wednesday characterized the crash that seriously injured Tiger Woods as “purely an accident" and appeared to rule out any potential criminal charges even as authorities were still investigating. The crash caused “significant” injuries to his right leg that required surgery, according to a post on the golfer's Twitter account. Justin King, a personal injury attorney in California, said that if investigators prove the road is unsafe and contributed to Woods’ crash and others, the municipality that controls it could be held liable. The crash this week was the latest setback for Woods, who at times has looked unstoppable with his 15 major championships and record-tying 82 victories on the PGA Tour. He was in Los Angeles over the weekend as the tournament host of the Genesis Invitational at Riviera Country Club.

JUPITER, Fla. – The news of Tiger Woods’ frightening car wreck has touched many across the country. In Jupiter, where many consider Woods not just the greatest of all time but also a local, people were stunned at the news of the crash. The talk of the town has been filled with concerns and questions about Woods’ future. “We are waiting for the facts to see what happens, but I hope he’s going to be ok,” said Woods fan Ted Janeczek. Many of his fans and neighbors in Jupiter are taking what happened, and questions about Wood’s future in his golfing career, very personal.

Golf star Tiger Woods was in surgery Tuesday after a one-vehicle rollover crash in California, authorities and Woods’ agent confirmed. “Tiger Woods was in a single-car accident this morning in California where he suffered multiple leg injuries. He is currently in surgery and we thank you for your privacy and support,” Woods’ agent Mark Steinberg said in a statement. Woods, who lives on Florida’s Jupiter Island, just north of Palm Beach County, has been sidelined from competition recently after undergoing back surgery. Man, I just hope he’s all right.”This is the third time Woods has been involved in a car investigation.

But now, as a 14-year-old, the Southwest Ranches girl is playing with the pros. Katherine qualified to play in the LPGA Tournament of Champions Pro Am in Orlando, and she played very well. She rolled in a birdie while playing with tour pro Georgia Hall and Baseball Hall of Famer Greg Maddux. Later, she buried an eagle putt alongside LPGA pro Celine Boutier. Getting that taste of life as a pro has only made Katherine hungry for more.

If you’re clicking around on the remote control while watching TV this weekend, odds are, you’ll stumble on som sights of Augusta National Golf Club. Yes, thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic, that will be the case for the first time in the history of the illustrious tournament.

No fansThis won’t be any different from any other golf tournament or major sporting event this year.

While a birdie is 1-under par on a hole and an eagle is 2-under par, a step better than that is an albatross, which is 3-under par on a hole. In the four major tournaments, it has only happened 18 times since 1870, according to GolfLink. An albatross has happened the most times at golf’s oldest major, the British Open, which has seen an albatross occur eight times in its history. The U.S. Open and PGA Championship were the last to see three, by Nick Watney in 2012 and Joey Sindelar in 2006, respectively. Maggert has two of the 18 albatrosses at major tournaments, collecting one at the 1994 Masters and one during the 2001 British Open.

Are you ever flipping around on TV and you come across some sort of golf tournament? Golf looks pretty fun, and somewhat less strenuous than some of the other professional sports. Plus, golfing seems like an enjoyable group activity or a bucket-list item for a scenic vacation.

BANDON, Ore. Tyler Strafaci of Davie won the U.S. Amateur on Sunday at foggy Bandon Dunes, overcoming a big deficit and surviving another tight finish to beat Charles Ollie Osborne 1-up.

He became the second straight Georgia Tech winner, following Andy Ogletree last year at Pinehurst.

But if you’re in need of more ideas, how about this one: Have you tried taking your kid golfing? Depending on which part of the country you golf, other wildlife such as deer and alligators can also easily be present on a golf course. On a side note, you don’t have to have your kid hit EVERY shot. Golf courses know the value of introducing the game to youngsters, and thus, will often offer heavy discounts for kids to play, if they even charge them at all for a round. Some golf courses also will offer discounts for families who want to play.

DAVIE, Fla. If youve been to a golf course, youve either said, heard or beat to death a quote from the movie Caddyshack.The comedy starring Rodney Dangerfield, Chevy Chase and Bill Murray was released 40 years ago Saturday, and locals may remember that much of the movie was filmed here in South Florida. The golf scenes were shot at what is now Grande Oaks Golf Club in Davie, which had been called Rolling Hills, during the fall of 1979. Ramis later said in an interview with Sports Illustrated that We kind of picked it by default. The cocaine business in South Florida was mammoth, and everyone was doing everything, Ramis recalled. Scenes were also filmed in Fort Lauderdale, at Plantation Country Club, Boca Raton Resort & Club, Key Biscayne Yacht Club and the Rusty Pelican Restaurant in Key Biscayne, according to the movies IMDB entry.

SUNRISE, Fla. His friends at the golf clinic call him "Will the Thrill." At only 5 years old, William Kelly has a mean golf swing, and a new reputation to uphold. On Friday, Kelly hit a hole in one during his golf clinic at The Bridges at Springtree Golf Club in Sunrise. Roughly 68 yards from the tee box to the pin, Kelly chose to use his 7 iron at hole #13. "Some people play golf their whole lives and never get a hole in one.

LAS VEGAS – Nobody would have given odds on this. Inside the glittering casinos that line the Las Vegas Strip, the slot machines were turned off and the sportsbooks were dark. Oddsmaker Jay Kornegay would be in the middle of it all at the Westgate Las Vegas, one of the most popular sportsbooks to watch March Madness. But the massive hotel, like all others in Las Vegas, is closed because of the new coronavirus and the huge televisions in the sportsbook are dark. Oddsmaker Jimmy Vaccaro said it didn’t make much sense to offer betting online when only obscure sports in faraway places are available to wager on.

Going beyond the call of duty — and probably any sort of caddie training he might have had — Benji Thompson went through great lengths to retrieve Lexi Thompson’s passport after she left it behind, according to The Caddie Network. Benji and Lexi Thompson are not related. Benji Thompson said the saga began following last week’s Evian Championship in France when Lexi Thompson sent a text message to him around 9 p.m. Sunday following the tournament’s final round. “Dude, we might not get outta here,” Lexi Thompson reportedly texted to him. Benji Thompson found the passport but then had to begin the arduous task of fitting all the golf bags back in the van.

The British Open, or as it's more affectionately called in the United Kingdom, The Open, tees off Thursday at Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland. Here are five reasons why this year’s British Open could be one of the best in the event's storied history. So, why hasn’t Portrush hosted the Open since 1951, the only other time the tournament was played outside England and Scotland? A big reason was civil strife that broke out in Northern Ireland that plagued the region for nearly 30 years from 1969 to 1998. One side wanted Northern Ireland to remain a part of the United Kingdom, while the other side fought to have Northern Ireland disband from the UK and join the Republic of Ireland as one united country.

It took more than 100 years for golf to be successfully reinstated as an Olympic sport. Despite golf becoming fully entrenched as an Olympic sport starting with the 2016 Rio de Janerio games, the same can’t be said of the Paralympics, which has not recognized golf as a sport for its event. He said having golf in the Paralympics could give adaptive golf a huge platform to which sponsors can jump on board and possibly help alleviate those costs. A lot of people, this is their vacation.”Beyond providing further awareness to adaptive golf, getting the Paralympics to welcome golf as a sport can further showcase what amputees can do in athletics. Kellie Valentine, a resident of Erie, Pennsylvania, has been competing at adaptive golf tournaments for more than 20 years and knows what the Paralympic stage would mean.

FRANKENMUTH, Mich. – NOTE: This is the first of two articles on adaptive golf. After having his left leg amputated below the knee and being fitted with a prosthetic leg, Bell found out about adaptive golf tournaments and the United States Adaptive Golf Association. A softball player who had never taken up the game of golf, Valentine heard about the adaptive golf circuit and decided to give it a shot, although the idea was met with resistance from her dad. Marty Ebel, a 60-year-old Houston resident who grew up in suburban Detroit, said he’s played adaptive golf for 15 years. I’m lucky I’m alive and only lost two legs.”Valentine, one of four women competing in the tournament, still vividly remembers her life-changing accident.

Samuel L. Jackson has made plenty of people laugh throughout his acting career, but he also made people crack up for a different reason Tuesday. Competing in the "Celebrity Ryder Cup," Jackson stood on the first tee and did what so many average golfers do on a daily basis: Duff one in embarrassing fashion. Fortunately for Jackson, the day turned out to have a happy ending for him and the rest of his American teammates. Who knows what will happen when the actual Ryder Cup tees off Friday, but the USA already scored one victory over Europe at a surrounding event Tuesday. On the same Le Golf National course that will be the site of this weekend’s Ryder Cup, the “Celebrity Ryder Cup” was held, with 10 celebrities from America and 10 from Europe competing for bragging rights.

GOLDEN, Colo. – Who knew golfers had it in them? In a supposed gentlemanly sport with a rule book as thick as the Manhattan yellow pages (remember them? ), two golfers were caught on video exchanging blows on a Colorado golf course. But just when things started getting interesting, the action died down and the fight came to a listless end. However, the two combatants shook hands to show that when it comes to golf, haymakers and birdies don't always fit.
