OPINION

Should LIV Players Play in the Ryder Cup?

A raging crisis

The PGA Tour has been badly devalued by the loss of so many key protagonists, and the TV ratings you cite reflect that. The Tour’s new benefactors can’t be happy

Is Forward Press Putting Right for You?

Give it a go.

“Forward press putting” is a technique where your hands and wrists are pushed ahead of the clubhead at setup and remain in that position throughout the stroke. Many golfers adopt this method as it helps improve the impact position and create a more consistent strike. However, while it can be an effective technique, it’s not without its challenges. Overdoing the forward press can lead to issues like delofting the putter or misaligning the clubface. Let’s dive into the pros and cons of forward press putting so you can decide how much—if any—forward press should be part of your game.

These are Scorecard Killers

Par 3s are tough.

A common misconception amongst amateur golfers is that par-3s are easy but that could not be further from the truth.

Our on-course data partner, Shot Scope, has pulled the stats on mid- to long-range par-3s to reveal some interesting insights on how amateurs fare on these holes.

Many clubs will include a “Magic Twos” prize pot alongside the competition in their weekly medals to reward those that successfully birdie any par-3s, and for good reason, as we will soon find out.

ASK MGS

What DEFCON is pro golf at right now?

I’m going to say DEFCON 2: a raging crisis that is threatening to turn into mutually assured destruction. The PGA Tour has been badly devalued by the loss of so many key protagonists, and the TV ratings you cite reflect that. The Tour’s new benefactors can’t be happy, either, as the first billion dollars of private equity money was shoveled to players without a dollar going toward upgrading the product. After three seasons and countless billions of dollars, LIV still has only a modest audience and now faces numerous big-ticket personnel decisions as the first wave of signees age out and/or need to be put out to pasture.

A deal to (sort of) reunify the sport is not a magic cure-all, as many former fans have realized that they’re okay not watching golf… and Bryson DeChambeau teeing it up at the Byron Nelson is not going to change that. The tour wars couldn’t have come at a worse time because the pro game was already suffering a glaring personality deficit. Greg Norman, Payne Stewart, Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Ernie Els, Vijay Singh…golf enjoyed a quarter century run of charismatic stars, badasses and transcendent talent. Now the PGA Tour is dominated by low-key nice guys who barely make the needle twitch. LIV has all the antiheroes and spicy personalities but they remain mostly out of sight and out of mind. We’ll see how things shake out in the off-season but DEFCON 1 could be coming.
