Quick Recap: Tour Championship
Tommy Fleetwood’s road to finally notching his first win on TOUR included 164 starts, 44 Top Ten’s, 30 Top Fives, and 6-runners-up
That’s a lot of golf without a win.
Golf fans had watched him fall short time and time again, yet all the while he maintained a positive attitude and he kept himself in the ring, contending over and over again, until he finally got the opportunity to throw the knockout punch.
It’s admirable to be that resilient and it’s a story that regular fans and world class athletes alike could buy into - and they did.
Lebron James, Caitlyn Clark, and Tiger Woods were all tweeting about him, watching from their couches at home like the rest of us, and pulling for the good guy to come through.
He finally did, winning by three strokes over Patrick Cantlay and Russell Henley.
Stats Of The Weekend

This Fall, Prove It to Yourself (and Your Kids)
We partnered up with our friends over at Dad Day for this one.
Think of them as Caddyshanks—but for dads.
They’re challenging their crew to sign up for a race this fall.
Could be a first 5k, a turkey trot 10k, or even a full marathon. Why? Because the older we get, the more it matters to take care of ourselves. Being around for our kids, setting an example, and actually having the stamina to walk 18 without gassing out—it all stacks up.
That’s where Runna comes in.
It connects right to your watch, builds a plan based on your goals, and literally tells you what pace, mileage, and workouts to hit.
No guesswork—just structure that works. Runna’s giving our readers a free 2-week trial with code DADDAY. If you’ve been waiting for a nudge, here’s your sign.

Golf Gal Of The Week: Christy Gilbert
Based out of Austin, Texas, Christy is a former D1 hurdler turned golfer.
Want To Go To Pinehurst? Bandon? Myrtle? We got you.
Every group of golf buddies has a trip planner - the guy who runs point on getting the trip together, booking tee times, collecting payments, etc.
For his group, those responsibilities fell to Ty.
He would make spreadsheets with all the costs of the trips broken down for his buddies convenience.
Earlier this year, his golf trip spreadsheet went viral on social media and he decided to bet on himself and turn it into a business.
After reading through the results of our survey and learning that the overwhelming majority of our readers would be taking a golf trip in the next year, we reached out to Ty to offer his trip planning services to our golf community.
These trips are curated to your groups specific needs at the best locations.
Why? Because you're not looking to chase down golf directors, track deposits, or figure out which Airbnb has enough beds and a place to store 8 golf bags.
You're here to play golf, make memories, and talk trash on the 18th tee.
We’ll handle:
Booking courses & lodging
Reserving tee times
Group transportation
Dinner reservations
Side games (yes, really)
All you have to do is show up.
If you’re interested, fill out the form here, tell us where you want to go and how many buddies you’re bringing along, and we will handle the rest.
