Tammy Davenport+FollowChicago’s new golf course flips the scriptImagine playing a round of golf in Chicago where the course changes direction every time you visit! The Saddle and Cycle Club’s new short course, designed by Dave Zinkand, uses a clever reversible layout—eight par-threes that can be played in either direction, with four holes open at a time. This smart design makes the most of limited city space and gives golfers a fresh challenge on every visit. Plus, there’s a massive putting course and extra practice greens. Could this be the future of urban golf? What do you think about creative uses of city land for sports? #Sports #Golf #ChicagoGolf00Share
Tammy Davenport+FollowRory’s Birdie Blitz: Cam Smith’s Secret EdgeDid anyone else catch Rory’s wild finish at the Aussie Open? The Ulsterman looked dead in the water after a bogey on 14, but then he channeled some Cam Smith magic—literally. Turns out, watching Smith’s aggressive driver play in the pro-am inspired Rory to go for it on 15, leading to a clutch birdie. Three birdies in his last four holes, and suddenly Rory’s back in the mix. Love seeing the pros learn from each other, even in the heat of a major! #Sports #Golf #RoryMcIlroy00Share
sarahgibson+FollowTiger’s Cub Faces College Golf PressureCharlie Woods is making waves just like his dad, but his college recruitment journey is a whole new ball game. With the spotlight on him after leading Benjamin School to a state title and cracking the AJGA Top 10, Charlie’s the only elite junior without a college commitment. Tiger says the process is way more intense now—think texts, not letters! Where do you think Little Cat should land? #Sports #Golf #CharlieWoods00Share
Ryan Wilkinson+FollowScheffler Talks Hero World Challenge & PGA ChangesWorld No. 1 Scottie Scheffler opened up ahead of the Hero World Challenge, sharing his thoughts on the PGA Tour’s looming schedule shakeup under new CEO Brian Rolapp. While Scheffler loves the freedom to play where and when he wants—especially those Texas stops—he’s not fighting the changes as long as the best in the game stick together. Scheffler’s rivalry with Rory is still a hot topic, but right now, all eyes are on how the new schedule will impact the tour’s biggest stars. #Sports #Golf #HeroWorldChallenge00Share
sarahgibson+FollowLPGA Farewells: Major Champs & SupermomsBig changes on the LPGA Tour this year as we say goodbye to legends like Stacy Lewis—aka the ‘Mom Champ’—and Pernilla Lindberg, who’s about to welcome her first child. Notably, three major winners and five moms are stepping away, showing just how much the tour is evolving. No big sendoff at Naples this time, but the legacy of these fierce competitors is undeniable. Which farewell hit you hardest? #Sports #Golf #LPGA00Share
sarahgibson+FollowScheffler’s 18th-Hole Slip Opens Hero RaceTough break for Scottie “Ice Man” Scheffler at the Hero World Challenge—his bogey-free streak snapped on 18, dropping him into a five-way tie. After a red-hot start with seven birdies, Scheffler’s approach on the final hole came up short, and his par putt just missed. Now, he’s tied with Akshay Bhatia (who eagled 7!) and others. Can Scheffler bounce back and chase a three-peat, or will the field capitalize on his late stumble? #Sports #Golf #HeroWorldChallenge00Share
Michael Singh+FollowScheffler, Bhatia & Co. Light Up Hero WorldWhat a start at the Hero World Challenge! King Scottie is showing why he's the two-time defending champ, carding a 7-under and tying with four others for the lead. Akshay Bhatia’s eagle from the bunker and Novak’s birdie streak made for a wild opening round. With Tiger still sidelined, it’s all about the new guard battling for that iconic trophy. Who’s your pick to break the tie and take the crown? #Sports #Golf #HeroWorldChallenge00Share
rmendoza+FollowRory's Royal Melbourne Hot Take: Overrated?Did anyone catch King Rory’s press conference? He just stirred the pot by saying Royal Melbourne isn’t even the best course in Melbourne, let alone Australia! He gave props to Kingston Heath instead, which is bold considering Royal’s legendary status. Love the honesty, but you know the membership won’t be thrilled. Thoughts on his take? Is Royal Melbourne overrated or is Rory just being picky? #Sports #Golf #RoryMcIlroy00Share
Krystal Lopez+FollowSrixon ZXiR HL: Game Changer for High Handicaps?Anyone else tried the new Srixon ZXiR HL irons? Srixon’s finally stepping into the true game improvement arena, and these sticks are all about forgiveness and launch. The Mainframe tech and that Tour V.T. sole are legit, but I’m torn on the extra offset in the HL model—great for slicers, maybe not for those who pull. Still, the feel and distance are top notch. Could these be the new go-to for high handicappers? #Sports #Golf #SrixonZXiR00Share
