Renee Powell is one of the most resilient and persevering athletes of our time.
Raised on an East Canton, Ohio golf course built by her father, William “Bill” Powell, during times of racial adversity and segregation, Renee learned early on what it meant to excel against the odds. By the age of three she was swinging a golf club for the first time, and early into her teenage years she had won more than 30 tournaments.
The PGA Tour announced significant changes to its 2021-22 schedule, collaborating with the European Tour to co-sanction three events, dropping two World Golf Championship events and relocating the first FedEx Cup playoff event.
Fundamentally, ranking golf courses is a subjective exercise. Better players often prefer more challenging layouts. Less skilled golfers might appreciate wider fairways with fewer forced carries.
That said, the validity of any individual review isn’t tied to whether that golfer has a degree in golf course architecture or a preference for certain types of grasses.
If you’re a golfer, your opinion matters.
To build our list of the best golf destinations, we turned to TheGrint and to real golfers just like you.
To generate our rankings, we leveraged data from TheGrint, a golf handicap and stat-tracking service that also allows golfers to rate the courses they play. Think of it as something similar to Yelp for golf courses.
After being canceled in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic, Tiger Woods' Hero World Challenge fundraiser will take place in December in the Bahamas.
“Impressing people is utterly different from being truly impressive.”– Ryan Holiday, Author of “Ego is The Enemy”
We all have a bit of ego in us, but more successful players are more in control of it.
Firstly, what is ego?
From my research, there are several psychological definitions and interpretations of it. Personally, I think of it as a drive to increase our sense of self-worth or standing with others through being good at something, in our case, golf.
The ego seeks pleasure, validation and improving/maintaining identity through achieving external goals such as winning, shooting a low score, or impressing others. If we shoot that low score or get that decent finish in a tournament, then we will be happy, if we don’t we won’t be.

When starting a hole, generally the player with the lowest score on the previous hole plays first. After starting a hole, the ball farthest from the hole is usually played first. However, the Rules encourage “ready golf” to help improve pace of play as long as it is done in a safe and responsible manner.
In four-ball play, you and your partner can play in whatever order you think is best when it is your side’s turn to play.

In 2020, Most Wanted Testing hit a roadblock due to COVID-19. It impacted our testing schedules and hindered the completion of four tests. Today, we are releasing the most comprehensive Utility Iron Test for 2021.
At MyGolfSpy, our job is to provide independent, unbiased and objective testing so you can make more confident purchasing decisions. Our 2021 Most Wanted Utility Iron Test is an indispensable guide for the off-the-rack buyer or for anyone looking for insight before their next fitting.
Let’s take a look at the Best Utility Irons for 2021!
The 2021 Most Wanted Utility Iron is the Srixon ZX. Leading the pack with the best strokes gained, the ZX also excelled in other metrics. Let’s take a look.
The XL in the new Cleveland Launcher XL driver must mean something. A marketing whiz might say it means X-tra Long. A Roman numeral scholar would say it’s 40, although “40 what” we don’t know.
But if you have eyes, it likely means X-tra Large.
Yep, it’s a big-looking head. And for Cleveland’s target demographic, that may be a good thing.
Cleveland returned as a full-line game improvement OEM four years ago. In that time, its irons have rated and sold well. Drivers? Not so much.
Can the Launcher XL lineup change Cleveland’s fortunes? That, dear reader, depends on whether size really does matter.
The Honma TW-W21 wedge is the Japanese manufacturer’s follow-up to its award-winning TW-W4 wedge.
And, as expected, it appears Honma kept a good bit of what worked in the TW-W4 as a foundation for the TW-W21.
The TW-W4 claimed status as the Most Wanted Wedge in 2019. Reviewing the data, what’s clear is that the TW-W4 offered solid performance in every facet of the test. Perhaps more importantly, it didn’t demonstrate any glaring weaknesses even when considering subjective feedback such as looks and feel.
With the Honma TW-W21, the design philosophy is simple. Keep what works and find opportunities to create marginally better performance. It’s fool’s logic to deviate from a useful blueprint.
Annika Sorenstam, 50, a three-time U.S. Women's Open champion making her first appearance in the senior event, finished at 12-under 276 this weekend en route to the U.S. Senior Women's Open title in Connecticut.
His career has been filled with oh-so-close finishes, but no major wins. That changed Sunday. Schauffele overcame a home-country favorite and wins a gold medal for the United States.
Xander Schauffele won an Olympic gold medal he badly wanted by overcoming more pressure than he could have imagined Sunday.
Final night in the pool will see Team USA try to add to its 26 medals already. Later, the title of world's fastest man awarded.
Annika Sorenstam shot an even-par 72 on Saturday to take a two-stroke lead into the final round of the U.S. Senior Women's Open.
