Si Woo Kim has shot at golf’s magic number. Then came adrenaline

admin — Sat, 23 May 2026 03:12:41 +0000

For approximately 58/60ths of his round, Si Woo Kim was good. So let’s start with the overwhelming majority.

He was good with playing partners Scottie Scheffler and Brooks Koepka, and he was good with their conversation, which apparently was so good that he said he couldn’t share what was said, and he’ll leave it at that. “But it was enjoyable,” he said. He was good, too, with TPC Craig Ranch, in McKinney, Texas, which is close to Kim’s home, and he was good with the event, the Byron Nelson backed by CJ Cup, which backs Kim. “So everything feels like home and feels comfortable,” he said.

He was good on hole 1. Birdie on a 6-foot putt. And hole 3. Birdie again, on a 17-footer. And hole 5. Birdie again, after nearly getting home on the par-5 in two. And hole 6. Birdie again, after dropping a wedge to 4 feet. And hole 7. Birdie again, after rolling in a 19-foot putt. And hole 9. Birdie again, his sixth of the front nine, after sitting just over the green in two on the par-5.

Then came the back nine. More good.

Birdie on 10, on a 17-footer. Birdie on 11, after sticking an iron to 2 feet. Birdie on 12, after hitting to 5 feet from a greenside bunker on the par-5. Birdie on 14, after making an 8-foot putt. Birdie on 15, after hitting his tee shot on the par-3 to 8 feet, though Kim said he felt funky. “Some guy was making sneeze during my backswing,” he said, “so I pull out back and hit a wrong shot, and it went straight.” At this point, folks were starting to talk about a 59, which only 14 players have accomplished in PGA Tour history, or a 58, which only Jim Furyk has shot. Hell, if Kim birdied his last three holes, he could fire a 57.

“I was joking there earlier,” Scheffler said, “I felt like I was hitting all my shots to 15, 20 feet and Si Woo was hitting all his shots to like 8 feet or closer.

“Yeah, it was fun to watch.”

Kim parred 16. But he birdied 17, which was good, and so was the putt. From just over the green and 16 feet away, Kim curled in a right-to-lefter. Maybe the most interesting stat of Kim’s round was that he took just 20 putts. He put himself in makable range, and he made putts — and when he was off the green, like he was on 17, he made those, too.

On to 18, where a par would’ve given him the 59. From the tee, he found the fairway. Good. That was stroke 56.

From 200 yards away, stroke 57 went 215 yards, and it sailed over the green.

Adrenaline, he said. After 17, he admitted he was dreaming of the 59, though he said he even chose a 6-iron over a 5.

“I think it was too much pumping,” he said of his heart. “So it went farther than I thought.”

Stroke 58, from over the green, came up well short. Kim said he spun it too much.

He had 18 feet left for par and the 59.

Answering biggest questions about LIV Golf’s future

admin — Mon, 04 May 2026 05:48:40 +0000

Check in every week for the unfiltered opinions of our writers and editors as they break down the hottest topics in the sport, and join the conversation by tweeting us at @golf_com. This week, our writers discuss LIV Golf’s future after the Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund announced it will cut funding for the rebel league after the 2026 season.

In a press release Thursday, LIV Golf announced new board members as it transitions from “a foundational launch phase to a diversified, multi-partner investment model.” Hours later, its bankroller, the Saudi PIF, released its own statement saying the “PIF has made the decision to fund LIV Golf only for the remainder of the 2026 season. The substantial investment required by LIV Golf over a longer term is no longer consistent with the current phase of PIF’s investment strategy.” Now that you’ve had a few days to digest this bombshell — and after a rollercoaster April for LIV Golf — what thought has lingered with you?

Josh Sens, senior writer (@joshsens): That for all the tumult, not much changed, aside from some players getting a whole lot richer. I suppose you could say LIV’s birth shook the Tour out of its complacency, which led to (ongoing) schedule changes and even fatter purses for already extravagantly paid golfers. Beyond that, though, what? Is there now an insatiable demand for team golf? There is not. Is professional golf itself a better product now for fans? I don’t see a ton of evidence of that.

Josh Schrock, associate news editor (@Schrock_And_Awe): I think Sens pretty much nailed it. What will stick with me long after LIV either morphs into something else or goes away entirely is that money couldn’t buy the parts of professional golf that actually resonate with fans: the tradition, the history and the meaning of the results. Billions of dollars can do a lot, but they can’t speed up time. It takes decades for sports leagues to resonate with fans and to develop a connection. LIV Golf was never going to be able to achieve that goal in a short time frame. As our Michael Bamberger wrote, LIV Golf changed the PGA Tour, but not for the better. And I feel like a reckoning is coming now that the Tour’s great opponent is teetering.

James Colgan, news and features editor (@jamescolgan26): Good points, gents. My lingering thought was this: We never heard the “don” of LIV Golf, Yasir Al-Rumayyan, say a single word. However golf history remembers LIV’s most powerful Saudi benefactor, it will NOT remember him for saying a single word about the sport. “His Excellency” left golf as he entered it: Without a peep.

At Trump Doral for this week’s Cadillac Championship, several players were asked if LIV members should be welcomed back to the PGA Tour, and what types of penalties they should face. If you werePGA Tour CEO Brian Rolapp, how would you handle players’ reintegration? Is it different for everyone? Would you not allow certain players at all?

Sens: Open a pathway for guys to play their way back on, with a point system that has some kind of reward for past performance. So that maybe the likes of Bryson and Rahm and Smith can compete in regular Tour events but not elevated events, which they’d still have to play their way into. The less relevant LIV guys would probably just retire rather than face that grind. And the younger guys would be left to try to earn their cards, which is what they’d probably be doing anyway.

Schrock: It’s going to have to be a case-by-case basis. As Rolapp and Jordan Spieth have noted, the PGA Tour extended an offer to Bryson DeChambeau, Jon Rahm and Cameron Smith earlier this year and it wasn’t accepted. The next deal shouldn’t be as forgiving. Both Spieth and Rolapp also subtly mentioned the lawsuit that DeChambeau was a key plaintiff in after LIV launched in 2022. That’s a lawsuit that PGA Tour players had to pay to defend, and the road back for those who signed on to sue the Tour should be harsher than those who went to LIV quietly, like Brooks Koepka, and didn’t rock the boat. Rahm will be the interesting case. His exodus came at a time when LIV was floundering, and it gave the rebel league juice and calcified the two sides’ stances in golf’s civil conflict. That rubbed a lot of people the wrong way. I’m not sure there’s an easy way to bring either of the big names back without upsetting a big portion of Tour membership, but the Tour would certainly benefit economically from reintegrating them quickly. As for the rest of LIV’s roster, some who resigned their membership, like Patrick Reed, can try to play their way back via the DP World Tour or KFT. Many will disappear with their millions and not even knock on the door at the global home. In all honesty, we’re probably talking about 15-20 players in total that decisions need to be made on.

Colgan: I’d give Bryson a path back. His presence would single-handedly change the PGA Tour’s economics, and he’s probably the only LIV player for whom that is true (Jon Rahm probably deserves consideration here as well). Everyone else would be subject to a lengthy (and expensive) return process through the Tour’s strategic partners at the DP World Tour and the KFT, or a short-term retirement.

LIV Golf changed the PGA Tour — but not for the better

By:

Michael Bamberger

Even if LIV Golf receives alternative funding, with the substantial PIF coffers no longer available, does this end any sort of competition that was remaining with the PGA Tour?

Sens: I think so. If LIV taught us anything, it’s that the world does not need more professional golf. At least not for the money these guys think they deserve to be making. Ironically, the Tour’s real competition for eyeballs these days doesn’t come from LIV. It comes from a bunch of YouTube bros producing their own content.

Schrock: Yes. Without the $30 million purses and signing bonuses, LIV will cease to be any sort of threat to the PGA Tour. It sounds like it’s close to a wrap, barring an unforeseen bailout.

Colgan: No fat lady is singing. Yet. But it sounds like she’s warming up.

What’s the best-case scenario for LIV Golf going forward?

Sens: Maybe pivot to crypto?

Schrock: Try to merge with the DP World Tour. LIV can slink along with limited funds, but there will almost certainly be a talent exodus once the money dries up.

Colgan: I think there’s a vision that could exist with significantly smaller purses at LIV’s previously successful golf-crazy venues (Korea, Australia, South Africa). The problem LIV is going to run into is that every sports league needs significant TV revenue to survive, and they’re not anywhere close to that right now.

Sunday’s golf slate featured two blowouts, as Nelly Korda won by four in Mexico and Cameron Young won by six in Florida. Both have had fantastic starts to 2026, but which one are you taking as most likely to continue this success through the summer?

Sens: I think they’ll both keep rolling, but Young’s summer is going to stand out just a bit more boldly when he wins his first major at Shinnecock.

Schrock: It’s Korda for multiple reasons. The first is that she’s the unquestioned best player on her tour. Young has been fantastic but has to deal with Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy and the blistering hot Matt Fitzpatrick. Korda changed her mentality after a winless 2025 and has been relentless to start this season. The only thing that can hold her back is a balky putter, but her new putting coach seems to have at least made that a net neutral. I expect her to win at least one more major this year and wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a three-major 2026 for Nelly.

Colgan: Cam! He’s a no-doubt top-5 player in the world right now, and a maiden voyage PGA Championship at Philly looms.

LIV Golf’s Southern Guards GC partner with Oscar Jacobson

admin — Fri, 24 Apr 2026 14:22:01 +0000

Southern Guards GC, the South African LIV Golf League team formerly known as Stinger Golf Club, has announced Oscar Jacobson as its official apparel partner, marking a major milestone following the team’s recent rebrand.

The partnership brings together Southern Guards GC and Oscar Jacobson Golf, a premium Swedish brand with a heritage in fine tailoring.

Renowned for blending timeless Scandinavian style with modern performance, Oscar Jacobson delivers sophisticated, versatile golf apparel that performs on the course while maintaining a sharp, refined aesthetic off it.

HERITAGE MEETS CULTURE

By combining its legacy in fashion tailoring with advanced performance design, the brand continues to expand its offering of modern golfwear that meets the demands of today’s athlete and lifestyle-driven consumer.

“This partnership represents a perfect alignment of values,” said Richard Glover, General Manager of Southern Guards GC. “As a team, we are proud of our South African identity and the culture, unity and resilience that define us.

Oscar Jacobson’s heritage, attention to detail and commitment to excellence mirror our own ambitions as we represent our country on the global LIV Golf stage.”

At the heart of Southern Guards GC’s refreshed identity is a celebration of collective strength, inspired by the African philosophy of Ubuntu – ‘I am because we are’.

This ethos underpins the team’s culture and is reflected in its new visual identity. Central to the rebrand is the rhino, a powerful symbol in South African culture representing strength, resolve and legacy which will feature across all of the Oscar Jacobson styles.

“Oscar Jacobson has always stood for craftsmanship, performance and timeless style,” said Graeme Stevens, at Oscar Jacobson Golf.

“Partnering with Southern Guards GC at this pivotal moment in their journey is incredibly exciting.

Their story, values and renewed identity resonate strongly with our brand, and we are proud to support the team with apparel that reflects confidence, versatility and modern elegance.”

HOME SOIL

The announcement comes at a defining moment for Southern Guards GC, just months before LIV Golf tees off on African soil for the first time.

LIV Golf South Africa is set to take place at Steyn City, Johannesburg, from 19–22 March 2026, with more than 70,000 tickets already sold. As anticipation continues to build, momentum around the event – and its host team – shows no signs of slowing.

The new Southern Guards line of team apparel will be available in the U.K. from mid February at www.oscarjacobsongolf.co.uk and from selected retail partners.

Unpacking LIV Golf’s wild week and uncertain future

admin — Mon, 20 Apr 2026 07:33:24 +0000

Check in every week for the unfiltered opinions of our writers and editors as they break down the hottest topics in the sport, and join the conversation by tweeting us at @golf_com. This week, we discuss LIV Golf’s chaotic week and uncertain future, Matt Fitzpatrick’s win at RBC Heritage and Rory McIlroy’s career Masters prospects.

Early last week, several news outlets reported uncertainty regarding LIV Golf’s future, indicating the Saudi PIF was on the verge of pulling its funding. LIV CEO Scott O’Neil told his staff via email on Wednesday: “Our season continues exactly as planned, uninterrupted and at full throttle. While the media landscape is often filled with speculation, our reality is defined by the work we do on the grass.” But O’Neil was more specific about the situation on Thursday, when he said in a TV interview, “The reality is you’re funded through the season, and then you work like crazy as a business to create a business and a business plan to keep us going.” (The clip was deleted but still circulated online.) On Sunday, Jon Rahm won LIV’s sixth event of the season, in Mexico City. What’s your primary takeaway from what was a wild week for the five-year-old league?

James Colgan, news and features editor (@jamescolgan26): My primary takeaway is simple: The Saudis seem to be getting out of the business of running a golf league, which is a truly momentous takeaway for the entire sport. LIV now enters a period in which it will need to work hard to find a path to survival, and as its CEO, Scott O’Neil, himself said, it seems all options are on the table.

Josh Sens (@joshsens). One takeaway is as old as capitalism: that new businesses — even the disruptive variety — are hard to grow no matter how much money you put into them. That said, for Saudi Arabia, getting out of the business of funding a professional golf tour would not have to mean getting out of golf. A new course just opened in Jura. Others are in the works. The ambition is still to grow the country’s presence in the game, but likely now as a host for golf tourism and tour events. Which, in retrospect, seems like it would have been the better path all along.

Josh Schrock, associate news editor (@Schrock_And_Awe): My main takeaway is that if the PIF pulls out, LIV Golf, as we know it, would need to reinvent itself. O’Neil said he would pursue all avenues to get more funding, but it’s hard to see one or several sponsors willing to bankroll the league at a level that would allow for more nine-figure contracts. O’Neil himself said LIV wouldn’t be profitable for five or 10 years without significant changes.

Jon Rahm won but questions about LIV Golf’s future dominated chaotic week

By:

Josh Schrock

To Schrock’s point, can LIV continue in its current form without PIF’s deep pockets? If so, what would need to change?

Colgan: Definitely not in its current form. The league has spent more than $5 billion of Saudi funding to date, and, as Josh noted, O’Neil has already said that the league is several years away from any hope of profitability. Depending upon who steps up to help LIV with funding, I’d say any change is on the table.

Sens: Nope, the league would not be viable in its current form, and I have a tough time imagining what other form it might take. A limited series of world championship events with big overseas dollar sponsorships? But is there really a market for more big-dollar professional golf than we already have? The LIV experiment has shown that certain markets — Australia and South Africa, for example — are hungry for golf star power, but, on a global level, building and drawing eyeballs to a new league is a steep hill to climb.

Schrock: LIV could try and merge with the DP World Tour or reconstruct how it did a lot of things when the PIF spigot was on. But the contracts and purses would have to go down, and, at that point, how many players are going to want to continue when the financial payoff isn’t what it was when they initially signed on? A lot of moving parts to consider, many of which we still have limited to no information on.

If LIV doesn’t survive past 2026, would you expect the PGA Tour to offer LIV’s top players — Bryson DeChambeau, Jon Rahm, etc. — a path back to the Tour by way of a similar agreement that Brooks Koepka accepted?

Sens: For the big LIV names, absolutely. If the Tour wants to be a showcase for the world’s best talent, and it does, it will work out a deal with Rahm and DeChambeau and maybe a small handful of others. The rest, I suspect, will have to play their way back in through other smaller tours.

Colgan: In that theoretical, I’d think the Tour can afford to offer a “Koepka Deal” to Bryson and Rahm … and probably leave the rest of the LIV contingent to serve out their suspensions on the DP World Tour.

Schrock: From a pure cost-benefit analysis, Tour CEO Brian Rolapp would probably love to add Bryson and Rahm back in the fold just as he did with Brooks. But things are not always that easy when you’re dealing with two players who already turned down an opportunity to come back, who might not be as well-liked by the current membership as Brooks, who kept his head down after he left and didn’t take any swipes or recruit other players. The feelings might not be the same toward Bryson, who was a named plaintiff in LIV’s antitrust suit against the PGA Tour and its members, or Rahm, whose departure post-framework agreement rubbed many players the wrong way. Would they immediately add value to the Tour? Yes. But for Rolapp to sell that vision, it’ll be a tricky high-wire act.

Matt Fitzpatrick won the RBC Heritage in a playoff over Scottie Scheffler, who started the day three shots off the lead but caught Fitzpatrick late. Is your Hilton Head takeaway more focused on Fitzpatrick’s second win in the last month, or Scheffler’s second straight runner-up finish?

Colgan: How quickly we forget that Scottie Scheffler remains a U.S. Open victory away from the career grand slam? Kudos to Fitz for another win, and for continuing to reestablish himself as one of the premier players in the sport … but my eyes are already peeking ahead to Shinnecock.

Sens: Like Woods before him, Scheffler has twisted our expectations so wildly out of proportion that a second-place finish somehow gets cast as a failure. Fitzpatrick is on a great run of golf. Scheffler is operating in a different dimension. Whatever “struggles” he went through earlier seem to be behind him. So yeah, as James said, eyes on Shinnecock. But also on Aronimink before that. And frankly, anywhere Scheffler tees it up.

Schrock: The Scheffler “struggles” were blown out of proportion as we tend to do when an elite athlete dips below the level at which we’ve become accustomed to seeing them operate. Scheffler almost erased a 12-shot weekend deficit at the Masters with an ice-cold putter. He’s the best in the world, and I expect him to contend every time he tees it up. To me, this was more about Fitzpatrick. A year ago, he was in a bad spot. His game was “rubbish,” and he was ranked 79th in the world. A year later, he has three worldwide wins and has beaten both Rory and Scottie in separate playoffs. His rise back is impressive, and I think he’s a much better player now than what we thought his ceiling was when he won the 2022 U.S. Open. Expect him to threaten at Aronimink and the Open.

Speaking ahead of the Senior PGA Championship, major champ Padraig Harrington made one bold claim regarding how many more Masters Rory McIlroy could win given his success at Augusta, comfortability there and the fact that the course allows some players to stay competitive into their 50s. “Rory could win 10 [Masters] at this stage, or five of them, anyway.” While 10 seems lofty, what say you? How many Masters titles will Rory end his career with?

Colgan: I think we do this a lot with star players: we see them win a little, and we immediately assume they can win a lot. It’s so, so hard to win a Masters. I believe Rory could get to three, like fellow late-Augusta-bloomer Phil Mickelson, but I’ll probably hold off before adding any more to the list.

Sens: When Tiger won the Masters by a staggering 12 shots, I remember the talk being that he would never lose that tournament again. He got to five. Impressive. But yeah, let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Things happen. Life happens. Four green jackets for Rory doesn’t seem entirely outlandish. Maybe five if all the stars align? But 10 is preposterous. Ain’t gonna happen.

Schrock: We quickly forget that Rory went 10 years without winning a major of any kind. Golf is a fickle, weird game. I think he can win a third jacket and maybe, maybe you can talk me into a fourth at the end of his career. But the real question is how many majors does Rory win? I feel like I want to say nine, but again, we like to be prisoners of the moment with these things.

Miura Golf’s New PI-402 Raises The Bar in the Player Distance Category

admin — Sat, 28 Mar 2026 02:08:38 +0000

The newest iron from the makers of the most esteemed golf clubs in the world is designed for players of all skill levels, bringing modern launch, forgiveness and distance to its classic Miura profile

SCOTTSDALE, AZ – Miura Golf, manufacturer of the world’s most meticulously designed golf clubs, today introduced its newest iron, the PI-402. The advanced, innovative design from Miura’s craftsmen was created for players of all skill levels to help with launch, stability, ball speed consistency, and increased distance.

The PI-402 artfully blends contemporary distance with Miura’s timeless aesthetic and feel. It features a resilient 3mm Chromoly steel face, hot-rolled for elasticity, and consistent ball speed across the entire face. Coupled with 35g of tungsten, which is strategically positioned low behind the impact zone, the PI-402 delivers effortless launch and supreme stability.

In creating the PI-402, Miura held firm to its core principle that they will never introduce a new product unless it improves upon its predecessor. In comparison to the PI-401, the PI-402 features a more compact face length and increased heel height, resulting in a sophisticated, classic look at address not often seen in this category.

“Achieving greater distance is perhaps the most common goal of every golfer, which is why we designed the PI-402 to be effective for players of all skill levels,” said Anthony Newville, President, Miura Golf. “Every element of the PI-402 is designed to combine classic aesthetics with modern performance, showcasing Miura’s commitment to craftsmanship and precision engineering.”

Another defining feature of the PI-402 is the new Kissaki Sole. Drawing inspiration from the tip of a traditional Japanese sword known as “Kissaki”, the PI-402 has an advanced camber sole engineered to balance effective bounce through contact. With a maximum sole width of 22mm, it complements a wide range of swing paths and attack angles, enhancing forgiveness on off-center strikes.

“The idea behind the PI-402 is to pair resilient face material with low, purposeful weighting and a sole shape that is engineered to perform across a wide range of swing types,” said Kevin O’Connell, EVP, Sales & Strategy, Miura Golf.“The result is higher launch and added stability, all while preserving the refined feel and consistency expected from Miura.”

Miura has also introduced a TPU vibration control plate in the PI-402 which enhances sound and feel at impact while maintaining stability across the face, especially on mishits. The plate helps soften harsh vibrations and tunes the feedback a golfer receives, providing a connected and responsive feel with every strike.

“Evident in every detail of the PI-402 is Miura’s commitment to deliver an iron in the Players Distance category that maintains a refined look and feel,” said Hoyt McGarity, CEO & President of 8AM Golf. “Every PI-402 will be held to the enduring standard required to bear the Miura logo.”

The PI-402 irons are available in 4 to Pitching Wedge and Gap Wedge. For more information, visit www.miuragolf.com.

Jordan Spieth evaluates golf’s most controversial putting stroke

admin — Thu, 12 Mar 2026 05:09:51 +0000

When sportscaster Kay Adams asked Jordan Spieth to address a certain hot-button topic on her “Up & Adams” podcast at the Players Championship on Wednesday, he looked and sounded a bit like a witness being cross-examined on the stand.

“Can you tell me what I need to know about this anchoring thing?” Kay asked Spieth who was seated at a desk across from her. “Akshay wins API. Is this OK? Is this not OK? Should putters be shorter? Should long putters not be a thing?”

Kay was referring to Akshay Bhatia, who won the Arnold Palmer Invitational last week with a 50-inch broomstick putter and an oh-so-close-to-anchoring technique in which he hovers the butt of his putter within a whisper of his chest; pressing the club into his chest would be anchoring, which was outlawed by the governing bodies in 2016, but Bhatia is not anchoring. Trouble is, the space between the end of his putter and his sternum is so narrow that, with the naked eye, it is hard to detect the gap, which has led fans on social media to not only question Bhatia’s method but flat-out accuse him of cheating.

When the peanut gallery made those allegations during the Pebble Beach event earlier this year, Bhatia wrote on Instagram, “Not anchoring. Literally 2 inches short of my chest haha.” On Monday, in the wake of a fresh wave of anchoring skepticism directed at Bhatia, PGA Tour winner Michael Kim came to Bhatia’s defense, writing on X, “It’s funny to me that Akshay anchoring is a thing. In person, it’s not that close. This is not a concern amongst the players.”

Still, not many pros have been asked on the record about Bhatia’s approach, so when Kay put the question to Spieth, who sits on the Tour’s Player Advisory Council, you could sense he was choosing his words as carefully as he might a club selection on the 12th tee at Augusta National, albeit without caddie Michael Greller’s counsel.

“Um…” Spieth began as he and Kay reviewed footage of Bhatia’s putting stroke. “This is, uh…”

But soon enough, Spieth got going.

“There’s a skill to it,” Spieth said. ”If it were that easy to do and made everyone that much better, everybody would do it. … He’s been doing it for a long time. Most of the people who have [have been].”

Bhatia, who is 24, actually hasn’t been using the broomstick for all that long. After struggling on the greens in the early part of his professional career, he consulted with a couple of long-putter converts, including Lucas Glover. In the fall of 2023, Bhatia made the leap. “We took a chance on switching to the broomstick, and I talked to a couple players about it, and they gave me some good advice, just kind of what to work on,” Bhatia said at the 2024 Masters. “I made a promise to myself that I’m going to take at least six months to try this putter out, regardless of how it goes, and so far my stats have kind of skyrocketed.”

In the 2022-23 season, Bhatia finished 183rd in SG: Putting. In both 2024 and 2025, he finished among the top 40 in the category. This season, he’s currently ranked 12th, helped in part by his sensational week on the crispy surfaces at Bay Hill. Bhatia’s nearly 16.3 combined strokes gained on and around the greens was the best performance by a Tour winner in the ShotLink era, which dates to 1983.

Bhatia, of course, isn’t the first pro to come under scrutiny for wielding a broomstick. Major winners Adam Scott and Bernhard Langer also have heard it from critics. But Bhatia is one of the younger pros to have adopted a long putter. Pair that fact with his vastly improved putting and now his third Tour win and he becomes an easy mark for skeptics and traditionalists.

So, where does Spieth stand on sweepers in general?

Pushed by Kay for his opinion Wednesday, he said: “I would like the putter to be the shortest club in your bag, because it is the shortest club in my bag, and I do believe that it forces more skill. It uses your hands more, which makes you have to be more, kind of athletic and deal with the stuff that comes up a little bit more.”

Tiger Woods said much of the same in 2012, four years before anchoring was outlawed. “I believe it’s the art of controlling the body and club and swinging the pendulum motion,” Woods said of his aversion to what were then called “belly” putters. “I believe that’s how it should be played. I’m a traditionalist when it comes to that.”

However you feel about broomsticks, reasonable minds can probably agree that at the very least the optics of Bhatia’s method are problematic. But that’s not on Bhatia to solve — that’s on the rulesmakers whose job it is to remove gray areas from the rule book, especially if those gray areas are causing fans to unfairly question players’ integrity.

Honma Golf’s BERES 10 Artistry Meets Pure Speed

admin — Mon, 23 Feb 2026 06:44:46 +0000

BERES 10 is defined by performance, luxury, and craftsmanship.

Carlsbad, CA — Honma Golf, the leader in beautifully crafted performance golf equipment, today announces the launch of BERES 10, the next generation of the iconic collection. Crafted for players who value consistency, luxury, and effortless power, BERES 10 elevates performance through greater distance, precision, and control.

For more than 65 years, Honma has manufactured the world’s most luxurious golf clubs and has turned heads with its prestigious BERES family of clubs. BERES 10 continues this tradition, representing the highest expression of luxury in golf, where rarity, refinement, and performance exist in perfect harmony. Globally recognized as a symbol of prestige, BERES has long been the choice of those who value craftsmanship at its most elevated level.

The intricate design of BERES 10 draws inspiration from Edo Kiriko, a traditional Japanese glass-cutting art established in 1834 and designated a National Traditional Craft of Japan. The disciplined geometry, deep colors, and intricate two-tone overlay techniques of Edo Kiriko mirror Honma’s own philosophy—where technical excellence and refined beauty coexist.

The timeless beauty of Edo Kiriko glasses inspired master Takumi craftsmen, whose pursuit of perfection defines Honma’s legacy. The glass-cutting discipline combines a unique blend of transparency, dimension, and metallic elegance that shifts with the light in exquisite detail. The BERES 10 woods feature striking laser-cut patterns on the clubheads, creating a modern interpretation of glass-cutting techniques that are executed with a level of precision found only in the world’s most exclusive creations. These are not decorative gestures; they are signatures of mastery.

Yet BERES 10 is defined as much by performance as by appearance. Advanced engineering is seamlessly integrated to deliver effortless clubhead speed, powerful distance, and a penetrating, remarkably stable ball flight. Advanced materials and hand-finished construction work together to produce efficient ball flight and reliable performance. The result is a set that performs with authority while preserving the elegance expected at this level. (3-Star woods feature a champagne gold sole; 4 Star and 5 Star grade woods have a gold sole.)

BERES 10 Driver

At the heart of the BERES 10 Driver is the Pure Speed Engine, a suite of four advanced technologies engineered to deliver maximum acceleration and efficiency at impact. The Full Titanium Frame features an ultra-thin, high-rigidity crown and body that optimize head stability and energy transfer, while the Rear Weight Balancer incorporates a 9-gram (men’s model) high-density sole weight to lower the center of gravity for higher launch and increased forgiveness. A forged Cup Face Design expands the high-speed zone across the entire clubface, and the Variable Thickness Face utilizes an optimized flex pattern to minimize ball-speed loss on off-center strikes. Together, these innovations produce exceptional ball speed, high MOI, and a stable, powerful launch – engineered for one purpose: pure speed.

The women’s BERES 10 Driver features a Full Titanium Frame, Casting Cup Face, and 4-gram Rear Weight Balancer to achieve high ball speed, MOI, and forgiveness. (Men’s and Women’s Driver Pricing: 3 Star $1,200, 4 Star $2,000, and 5 Star $5,000)

BERES 10 Fairway Wood & Hybrids

BERES 10 performance extends far beyond the driver, with Pure Speed engineered throughout the Fairway Woods and Hybrids. Each club features Cup Face construction, a Rear Weight Balancer with loft-specific weighting, and a low center of gravity design to promote naturally high launch, paired with high-strength faces for explosive ball speed. The result is aggressive long-game performance that delivers exceptional forgiveness and extended carry from every position on the course. The women’s Rear Weight Balancer features a 4-gram aluminum weight. (Men’s and Women’s 3 Star Fairway $800/Utility $600, 4 Star Fairway $1,500/Utility $1,400, and 5 Star Fairway $5,000/Utility $5,000)

BERES 10 Irons

Forged by master craftsmen, BERES 10 Irons unite refined beauty with powerful distance performance. The new Speed Core Face integrates a 3D L-Cup Face Structure that expands the high-velocity zone across the entire face and maintains ball speed on off-center hits, while a 3D Variable Thickness Design optimizes energy transfer efficiency and feel at impact. An intricately crafted 3D Emblem Structure suppresses unwanted vibration while elevating the club’s premium aesthetics. A low-and-deep center of gravity promotes higher launch and steeper landing angles to help hold greens, and lightweight shafts featuring an advanced 5-axis hybrid metal mesh construction with TORAYCA® T1100G carbon fiber deliver improved impact efficiency, higher ball speed, and greater distance.

The Men’s and Women’s BERES 10 Iron sets are distinguishable in composition. The men’s collection is a forged S25C carbon steel, and the women’s product offering is a body of 17-4 stainless steel casting. (Men’s and Women’s 3 Star $550/each, 4 Star $1,350/each, and 5 Star $5,000/each)

LEADING GOLF SHAFT TECHNOLOGY – ARMRQ FLIGHT

HONMA’s proprietary golf shaft technology pushes the limits of performance with advanced carbon composites and high-grade metals. Variations based on design and material differences. Higher grades deliver greater precision and consistency — for longer, straighter shots.

★★★3S – The high-elasticity TORAYCA® M40X, which pursues the ultimate in both fiber strength and elastic modulus, provides superior playing performance that efficiently accelerates head speed without waste, while at the same time suppressing torque and improving stability.

★★★★4S – The kick point is designed closer to the tip to further improve club head speed. At the same time, flexing and torque are further suppressed, increasing initial speed and stability.

★★★★★5S – From the 4S grade, the bias layer has been further strengthened to generate strong torsional return power. This is an ultra-premium shaft that achieves the ultimate flight and stability.

The BERES 10 collection is available in Men’s and Women’s 3 Star, 4 Star, and 5 Star series. Standard iron sets include 7-10, SW for ladies, and 5-11, AW, SW for men. Visit us.honmagolf.com for more information.

KINETIXX introduces golf’s first shafts engineered with a fully homogeneous deployment of Kevlar® technology

admin — Wed, 18 Feb 2026 16:20:04 +0000

This exclusive, generational technology will be present in the new SyrgeX and FlexurX lines

San Clemente, CA – KINETIXX Golf today announced the launch of SyrgeX and FlexurX, two next-generation wood shaft platforms built around Kevlar® EXO, the most significant advancement in aramid fiber technology in more than 50 years. KINETIXX is the only golf shaft manufacturer with exclusive access to Kevlar® EXO, pairing this breakthrough material with its utility-patented hybrid construction to deliver unprecedented strength, consistency, energy transfer, and feel. Beyond exclusive access, KINETIXX uniquely owns and controls the design, production, and commercialization of the proprietary unidirectional prepreg architectures used in these shafts, manufacturing the material itself rather than sourcing it externally. This vertically integrated capability allows KINETIXX to engineer performance at the material, fiber, and structural levels simultaneously, a feat no other golf shaft manufacturer can replicate.

“This launch represents far more than two new shafts,” said Jason Horodezky, CEO of KINETIXX. “We own the material science, the prepreg architecture, and the manufacturing process end to end. Because we actually produce the commercially viable unidirectional prepreg in-house, we can build performance into the shaft at a molecular level. There is no shortcut to that capability — and no other company in golf can make shafts like these.”

Kevlar® EXO is a copolymer aramid fiber engineered for extreme performance. It has been in development for 15 years and has expanded to other key applications such as crash-resistant fuel bladders for Formula One; protecting satellites, deployable structures, and spacecraft in space from orbital debris; and now looks to the sports world with best-in-class golf shafts. KINETIXX’s proprietary prepreg forms of Kevlar® EXO are not single-purpose solutions, but a scalable materials platform that will be deployed across future applications both within and beyond sporting goods, including advanced industrial systems and next-generation medical devices requiring controlled flexibility, fatigue resistance, and long-term structural reliability.

Compared to standard Kevlar®, it is approximately 30% stronger, 30% lighter, and 30% more flexible. That added ductility allows the material to absorb impact energy rather than fracture, which is essential in high-speed golf applications where carbon fiber alone can be brittle. By combining Kevlar® EXO (tension and impact absorption) with high-modulus carbon fiber (compression and stiffness), KINETIXX achieves a composite system that stores, controls, and releases energy more efficiently than any existing conventional shaft design. Because KINETIXX engineers and manufactures the prepreg material itself, these composite systems cannot be reverse-engineered or duplicated using conventional table-rolled or third-party-supplied materials.

“We couldn’t be more excited to partner with KINETIXX on a project that brings together two innovation‑driven brands,” said Scott Janco, Kevlar® EXO Application Development. “By combining KINETIXX’s cutting‑edge approach to golf performance with the breakthrough power of Kevlar® EXO, we’re setting the stage for technology that can truly change the game.”

SyrgeX: Filament-Wound Precision, Vacuum-Cured Consistency

SyrgeX represents the most advanced execution of KINETIXX’s utility-patented hybrid construction. A 30T (0°) and 40T (45°) high-modulus carbon fiber core is paired with a homogeneous, circumferential filament-wound Kevlar® EXO exoskeleton, all vacuum-cured into a low-void, ultra-dense composite. The Kevlar® EXO filament and prepreg materials used in SyrgeX are produced exclusively by KINETIXX, enabling fiber placement, tension control, and material consistency unavailable to manufacturers relying on outsourced composite supply chains.

This architecture solves the long-standing trade-off between bending stiffness and torsional stability. The 0° fibers deliver elite linear strength and a stable kick profile, while the 45° fibers and Kevlar® EXO hoop layer dramatically resist twisting and ovaling under load. The result is a shaft that stays round, stays square, and recovers faster, even on high-speed or off-center strikes.

Key performance outcomes include:

Pure kinetic energy transfer from reduced resin content and higher fiber volume.
Spineless, concentric construction for ultra-tight dispersion.
Reduced vibration and enhanced feel, as the Kevlar® EXO exoskeleton filters harsh, high-frequency impact shock.
Exceptional durability and impact resistance without added weight.

SyrgeX is available for both drivers and fairway woods. This line is engineered for mid-to-high swing-speed players seeking bulletproof distance with bulletproof precision, delivering a high, stable kick point, low torque, and lower-mid launch/spin characteristics.

FlexurX: The Most Advanced Table-Rolled Shaft Ever Developed

FlexurX applies Kevlar® EXO innovation to a vacuum-cured, table-rolled platform, creating a shaft that redefines what is possible in traditional flag-wrapped construction. A 30T/40T high-modulus carbon fiber core is reinforced with a proprietary ultra-thin Kevlar® EXO unidirectional outer ply at 45°, precisely oriented for stability, loading, and recovery. This unidirectional Kevlar® EXO prepreg is wholly engineered and manufactured by KINETIXX, allowing exact control over fiber orientation, resin content, and ply thickness at a level not achievable through third-party materials.

This Kevlar® EXO exoskeleton acts as a structural safeguard, preventing deformation and ovaling during aggressive swings while adding elongation and vibration dampening that carbon fiber alone cannot provide. Vacuum curing eliminates irregularities like resin pockets, ensuring every FlexurX shaft is lighter, more consistent, and performs exactly as designed.

Performance benefits include:

Higher ball speed through efficient energy transfer.
Tighter dispersion and greater forgiveness on off-center hits.
Smooth, solid feel with filtered vibration despite high stiffness.
Broad playability across a wide range of clubhead speeds.

FlexurX is available for both drivers and fairway woods. This line is engineered for golfers who demand maximum stability, forgiveness, and efficiency without sacrificing feel — particularly players with moderate to fast swing speeds who want confidence on aggressive swings and protection on imperfect strikes. Designed for those who value tight dispersion, consistent ball speed, and smooth feedback, FlexurX is ideal for competitive amateurs, serious club golfers, and fit-focused players seeking reliability, playability, and tour-level consistency.

“Because we design and produce the prepreg material ourselves, FlexurX isn’t constrained by traditional manufacturing limits,” said Horodezky. “We can tune elongation, stability, and feel with a level of precision that simply doesn’t exist elsewhere in the market. These shafts aren’t iterations of what’s come before; they’re the result of a materials platform that will ultimately extend well beyond golf.”

Both SyrgeX and FlexurX are built on KINETIXX’s philosophy of material-first engineering: aligning fibers along calculated load paths, optimizing fiber angles and wall thickness by flex, and vacuum curing to achieve unmatched structural integrity. Unlike centerless-ground shafts, KINETIXX shafts are produced as true net parts, preserving concentricity and consistency from raw material to finished product.

With exclusive access to Kevlar® EXO and a proprietary hybrid construction process, KINETIXX has created not just new shafts, but a new performance category — one that combines strength, flexibility, durability, and feel in ways previously thought incompatible. These are shafts that cannot be copied, licensed, or reverse-engineered because no one else controls the material itself.

SyrgeX and FlexurX are now setting the standard for what a modern golf shaft can be: stronger, smarter, and engineered to protect and elevate every swing.

HOW NOVELLUS IS DRIVING GOLF’S NEXT GENERATION

admin — Fri, 23 Jan 2026 05:41:00 +0000

At Novellus, we have been lucky to share some great moments with several athletes across tennis and golf, but one story that stands out is still very much ongoing.

We have been supporting Euan Walker for several years now. He’s an impressive young man who has come incredibly close to earning his DP World Tour card, with two fantastic wins on the Challenge Tour (now the HotelPlanner tour), but narrowly missing out overall.

The way he carries himself, continues to represent Novellus and gives everything to the game is something that we are incredibly proud of.

We have a feeling this could be the year he finally breaks through and we’re excited to see what he can achieve at the higher levels of the game.

His journey is a powerful reminder of how tough the game is and how much it means to those who dedicate themselves to it.

EUAN WALKER PROUDLY REPRESENTING NOVELLUS ON TOUR

How do you measure the success of your golf sponsorships beyond simple brand exposure?

We measure success by aligning with individuals who give their all, which not only brings satisfaction to us as a company but also serves as a powerful reminder to our employees.

The perseverance and commitment that these athletes show, despite such frequent setbacks (which of course are common practice in professional sport), sets a wonderful example for everyone at Novellus.

Many of your partnerships are with up-and- coming players, what qualities do you look for in an athlete?

We are spending more time with players and look for key qualities such as resilience, desire and competitiveness. Golf is an incredibly tough game, and you have to love what you do.

The most successful athletes not only relish competing but also embrace the process and progression.

We also value curiosity and willingness to learn. Asking the right questions and seeking the right advice is crucial and the smartest players figure that out early.

Finally, self-belief is essential. It sounds a bit cliched but backing yourself, when it matters most, is what separates the very best!

What do you think are the biggest challenges for young golfers trying to break into the professional ranks today?

The standard today is extremely high. The costs associated with playing professional golf are significant.

These costs exist regardless of the tour you are playing for and prize funds you can compete for. Coach (often coaches for different components of the game), Caddie, Travel, Entry fees, Physio, Physical trainer and psychology.

There’s also an overload of information in the world now with an expectation for instant results, but true success takes time.

Lottie Woad is a great example of this – what looks like an “overnight success” is really the result of 15 years of hard work by her and her support team.

A key challenge is learning to trust the process, to take the advice given and then committing to it for long enough, rather than constantly making changes.

We are strong advocates of trusting the process.

The KPMG Women’s Irish Open, Rose Ladies Series, and Women’s Irish Challenge are all significant events, how does Novellus see its role in helping these grow?

Novellus plays a small supporting role. These events are all driven by passionate, dedicated people and we aim to raise awareness and encourage other businesses to follow our lead by highlighting the positive impact of partnering with high quality tournaments.

We also encourage our Novellus sponsored athletes to compete in the events and, as they achieve greater success, we hope this will help elevate the profile of these fantastic tournaments and tours.

We have seen first hand, how inspiring for the next generation, spending a short amount of time with the players can be.

We try to ensure we are on hand with hats, autograph opportunities with our athletes and some words of encouragement.

We are lucky that the people we support buy into that and have had that from the generations that went before, no more so than in Irish golf where there is a great support network from current and former players advising the next generation as they navigate the professional game.

LOTTIE WOAD CELEBRATES WINNING THE SCOTTISH OPEN ON HER PROFESSIONAL DEBUT

Are there plans to get involved at a junior or grassroots level, perhaps through coaching programs or youth events?

Absolutely. Lottie’s success offers a powerful foundation to inspire and attract more young golfers into the game.

Novellus is committed to creating a legacy by supporting grassroot efforts and actively engaging with clubs, coaches, and governing bodies to explore the best ways to make the most of this truly unique window of opportunity.

Can you reveal any upcoming golf partnerships or initiatives we should watch for?

We are excited about the next phase of growth at the Novellus academy. We also have several other projects in development, which we look forward to updating you on soon!

Does anyone in the Novellus leadership team play golf themselves? If so, any memorable rounds or personal highlights?

Our CEO, Billy McManus, plays regularly, as do many of our senior team. A memorable highlight is when Billy made two “hole in ones”, within two days, although he is quick to remind us that he hasn’t had any before or since!

NOVELLUS’ BILLY MCMANUS (RIGHT) WITH JAMES KINGSTON AT OFX IRISH LEGENDS

If you could sponsor any golfer in history, past or present, who would it be and why?

It’s an obvious choice, but it must be Tiger Woods. While many great players have come before and after him, it’s unlikely we’ll ever see anyone who electrifies the sport or has the same level of impact on the game quite in the way Tiger has.
