Stunning course conditions at Las Vegas National set the stage for an exciting Vegas Golf Network tournament this weekend. The greens are rolling true, fairways are immaculate, but beware those crusty bunkers that might swallow your ball! We break down the weather forecast from our resident meteorologist Matty G, who predicts light rain and gusty winds that will separate the serious contenders from the fair-weather golfers.
Golf's equipment world is ablaze with controversy as Odyssey releases a putter bearing striking resemblance to the wildly popular Lab design. We dive deep into this heated debate, examining how Lab has disrupted the industry to become the third best-selling putter brand while exploring the long history of manufacturers "borrowing" designs from competitors. Is imitation the sincerest form of flattery, or has Odyssey crossed a line?
The identity crisis of the PGA Championship takes center stage as we analyze what makes golf's four majors distinct from one another. While Augusta demands precision, the US Open tests grit, and The Open challenges players with elements and terrain, what exactly is the PGA Championship's unique challenge? We propose solutions that could give this major a stronger identity, including a potential return to its match play roots.
Our custom Goodwood putters have arrived, and we share our first impressions after taking them for a spin. From immediate adoption to careful consideration, each host has a different experience with these beautifully crafted clubs. Will they replace our current gamers or become cherished collection pieces?
