2024 PGA Tour Season

[CameronDuke]

The Shriners Children’s Open is going on at TPC Summerlin in Las Vegas.

Pulling for Lanto Griffin from VCU to get his 2nd career PGA Tour win today. He’s -15 and T1 along with Adam Hadwin and Tom Kim, and Taylor Pendrith is 1 shot back at -14. Each player should come away with a good pay today at the very least.

There is no 2023-2024 PGA Tour Season.

There isn’t?

It's just 2024. They went back to a calendar year, cut some tournaments and added a few that will be concurrent. So some weeks there will be two PGA events at the same time.

Oh .

A loaded field has been unveiled for the Hero World Challenge with one open spot to be announced at a later date, potentially being reserved for host Tiger Woods.

Scottie Scheffler (1), USA
Viktor Hovland (4), Norway
Patrick Cantlay (5) USA
Xander Schauffele (6), USA
Max Homa (7), USA
Matt Fitzpatrick (8), England
Brian Harman (9), USA
Wyndham Clark (10), USA
Jordan Spieth (12), USA
Cameron Young (17), USA
Keegan Bradley (18), USA
Collin Morikawa (19), USA

Sam Burns (21), USA
Jason Day (22), Australia
Sepp Straka (23), Austria
Will Zalatoris (24), USA
Rickie Fowler, USA, tournament exemption
Justin Thomas, USA, tournament exemption

Would be huge if Tiger could play in this. He’s the host and the weather would be warm in the Bahamas. Would be a good test for his newly surgically repaired ankle.

Technically, Tom Kim just won the same event twice in the same season

Adam Long is a new record holder on the PGA Tour.

After his perfect driving-accuracy showing last week in Cabo, Long continued his precise ways off the tee Thursday at the Butterfield Bermuda Championship. When he hit the fairway on Port Royal’s second hole, it marked Long’s 60th straight fairway hit and pushed him past Brian Claar’s PGA Tour record of 59 consecutive fairways hit.

Long’s impressive run dates to the penultimate hole of his final round at the Shriners Children’s Open and includes a 56-for-56 performance at the World Wide Technology Championship, the first 100% driving tournament since Claar at the 1992 Memorial Tournament.

Long hit all seven of his fairways on the front nine Thursday and turned having hit each of his last 65 fairways. He extended the record to 69, before finally missing a fairway at the par-4 15th.

So happy that Villegas won, especially after such a difficult time in his life. And his acknowledgment of his daughter in his victory speech was very touching. It certainly puts things in perspective.

He will be in the field at Sea Island this week. He regularly plays this tournament and can usually be seen in the fitness center with his caddie when he isn’t on the course.

Very emotional win. He's been showing signs he might win soon.

Last win was about 10 years ago at the Wyndham in Greensboro.

That's what's known as a Very Big Deal.

I don't think he will be missed by very many.

Now if Morgan Pressel would stop doing the LPGA, things would be looking up.

I'll miss the Zinger. Most of all for what he did for his friend, Payne Stewart and also for his knowledge of the game of golf.

I will miss him too. I think he caught a lot of flak from people that didn’t care for his analysis and style. Which is fair. But I liked the analysis he provided and he seemed like a genuinely good guy.

Paige Spiranac wants the job. Ms Arnie will not be happy when I watch every NBC tourney from start to finish.

[rsvman]

They should give the job to Paige. A rumor I heard said that they were considering Chamblee. Yikes! Azinger is miles better than Chamblee. Paige would actually be good, I think.
