Monday Tour Mash: Love III turns back time, Woods falters

Published

Love wins the Wyndham 

Apparently ageless Davis Love III turned back the hands of time and played excellent golf while those around him were merely mediocre. The result was his 21st Tour victory and first in seven years. The 2016 USA Ryder Cup team captain battled nerves on the front nine, but his four birdies and an eagle were enough to offset two bogeys. On the back, eight pars didn’t seem like enough, but the one “other” was his second eagle of the round. Love was able to hold off third-round leader Jason Gore, who also eagled the 15th. Gore was unable to get anything going on Sunday and settled for a runner-up finish.

Bryson Dechambeau wins U.S. Amateur

BrysonDechambeau

The SMU golfer and California native had already claimed the NCAA individual title in early June. He joined four other golfers, the most recent being Ryan Moore, to add a U.S. Amateur title in the same year.

Things we know about Dechambeau: he loves physics, he can write his name backward and with ambidexterity, all of his irons are shafted to the same length and he practices a single-plane swing. DeChambeau will lead the USA Walker Cup side into its match with Great Britain and Ireland in September at Royal Lytham & St. Anne’s.

Web.Com News Sentinel to Kizzire

Who doesn’t like to say Patton Kizzire? He’s been mentioned twice this season in Web.Com awards ceremonies and his promotion to the PGA Tour is a foregone conclusion. The Auburn grad won his second tour event of 2015, this time in Tennessee at the News Sentinel Open. Kizzire matched 64s on Saturday and Sunday to ease clear of his pursuers. The Web.Com Tour wraps up its regular season this week, then enters a four-week playoff run in September.

Andrade holds off Langer at Boeing

Billy Andrade is a really funny guy. I learned this at Wake Forest in Sociology class (no lie, we were research partners.) When it came to a shot at an individual win on the Champions Tour, away went the mirth and out came the shots. Andrade was cruising along at 11-under par when he made an absolute mess of the fourth hole. A holed chip saved a triple bogey and the Rhode Islander found a way to stave off Bernhard Langer and others to win at TPC Snoqualmie Ridge.

Lydia Ko wins Canadian Women’s Open

Something about Down-Under golfers and the Canadian Open this year, it seems. Lydia Ko (New Zealand) followed up Jason Day (Australia) as national champions of the Maple Leaf, but it wasn’t easy. A birdie, a bogey and 16 pars were only good enough to get Ko into a playoff. That’s due to Stacy Lewis playing like her old self, with six birdies for a five-under 67 on the day of truth. Unfortunately for Lewis, bogey awaited on the first playoff hole and Ko had won her third Canadian Open victory in the past four years, and her second at Vancouver Country Club.

Missed the cut, big time

USGA Walker Cup selection committee

Derek Bard won the Sunnehanna Amateur in June. That’s a big one. He marched to the finals of the U.S. Amateur, where he lost to Dechambeau. One might have suspected this play would have earned him a spot on the Walker Cup team. No such luck. Bard didn’t even earn one of the two alternate slots. It seems that the reasoning of golf’s higher echelons will forever remain a mystery to the common folk. Bard deserved better.

Tiger Woods’ fourth round at Wyndham

Sure, it had been a while since the great feline had been in contention in a PGA Tour event. No one suspected that Woods would win, and yet, he should have. Woods had a 65 and a 64 on his score sheet already this week. Sunday was a different story, though. Tiger had five birdies on the day, but he also had two bogeys and a killer triple on the 11th. So, no FedExCup playoffs this year, but will Greensboro mark an important point in the comeback? Time will tell.

    I’m confused, he shot -13 and tied for 10th. Par one hole instead of triple and he’s -16, second place. Sounds like the beginning of better golf too me.

    woods’ poor chip shot was old-school woods-choking. very typical of a player who is now not very good.

Testing Lorem Ipsum

Published

on


What is Lorem Ipsum?

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Why do we use it?

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).

Photos from the 2026 PGA Championship

GolfWRX is on site for the second major of 2026: The PGA Championship from Aronimink in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania.

The tournament’s location, just outside Philadelphia, and its status as a major championship mean GolfWRXers are in for a treat: WITBs from a strong field, custom gear celebrating the PGA Championship, and the rich culture of the City of Brotherly Love — we have noted a relative absence of cheesesteak-themed items thus far this week, but most of the rest of the usual suspects are well represented.
