Well, that answers that.

Jon Rahm will not be part of LIV 2.0. His lawyer, John Beck, told the LIV Golf bankruptcy hearing on Wednesday that the two-time major champion “independently reviewed the terms of LIV 2.0 and determined those terms are unacceptable as to him.”

Lawyers do not get much more polite when they are slamming a door.

The hearing was LIV’s second in its Chapter 11 case in New Jersey. On the docket was the league’s motion to reject or assume executory contracts, which is courtroom speak for “which players are we keeping and which ones are we cutting loose.” Rahm’s contract is a big piece of that pile.

Breakup in progress

It was also said at the hearing that LIV and Rahm’s representatives are “in advanced discussions for a consensual separation agreement between Mr Rahm and LIV.” The hope is to have it finalized at a court hearing on Nov. 5.

That date was already circled. Earlier this week, court documents showed Rahm was the only player whose contract had been pushed to Nov. 5. Everybody else got sorted on the normal schedule. Rahm got his own appointment. Now we know why.

The money part

LIV filed for Chapter 11 in September after Saudi Arabia pulled its funding. BC Partners Credit has lined up as much as $300 million in financing to try to get a 2027 season off the ground, and players would own 52.5 percent of the new league.

Rahm is no ordinary departing player. He sits at the top of LIV’s list of largest unsecured claims at $7.5 million, according to the BBC. He left the PGA Tour in December 2023 for a deal reported at around $300 million.

Meanwhile, the clock is running for everyone else. BC Partners pushed the player commitment deadline from Oct. 13 to Oct. 25, and the approval hearing is set for Oct. 14.

He told us, sort of

Rahm has spent weeks being about as committal as a guy reading a dinner menu in a foreign language. Asked last month what would have to change for him to leave, he said, “Well, there’s a long legal process they have to go through before a lot of things fall into place. I really can’t give you an answer right now.”

Pressed on whether he had a commitment to 2.0, he went with: “I said what I said.”

Turns out he said plenty.

What’s next

The Nov. 5 hearing is the next big date for Rahm. Sergio Garcia already got the court’s blessing to end his LIV deal, so there is a path out.

Where Rahm plays in 2027 is still an open question. He remains a DP World Tour member, but his conditional release from that tour covered only 2026, and he still owes roughly two more starts, likely Abu Dhabi and Dubai. On the PGA Tour side, the one-time return window it once offered Rahm and a few others has closed, and LIV players have otherwise faced a year-long suspension to come back.

He has bigger news coming first, though. Rahm withdrew from the Spanish Open this week with his wife expecting the couple’s fourth child.

New baby, new contract situation, same guy who wins a lot. Stay tuned.

As we head into another amazing weekend of sports full off pigskins and seamheads its important to realize the greatest sport in history is teeing off in Utah. This time of year tends to lack the star power of tournaments held earlier in the season, but its got all the drama and the stakes. For many of these men playing, this isn’t about legacy, this is about survival. Lets get into it.

1.  Michael Brennan defends his title. Last year he won by posting a -22 and beating Rico Huey (shanks pick!) by four strokes. He won the Wyndham Championship in August and is now ranked a career high 33 in the world rankings. We’ll see if the belt holder can stave off the men trying to push him off his volcanic mountain top.

2. Utah is kind to newbies. Matt McCarty and Brennan each won here in their third career PGA Tour start. The course may reward players who haven’t been through the Tour grind. It’s important to know that especially if you have your eye on a young up and comer. Experience doesn’t take you as far in Utah golf.

3. Guys like Tony Finau and Billy Horschel will be fighting and clawing for tour status. Every shot matters, where they sit at the end of fall will determine if they are on the tour for 2027. So this weekend might as well be the PGA championship for them.

4. Gonna be a lot of birds! It’s gonna be a classic birdie fest at Black Desert Resort. Black Desert is a Tom Weiskopf design routed through a lava field. It plays as a par 71 at 7,421 yards, with 3,100 feet of elevation. The winning scores have been 23 under in 2024 and 22 under last year, so the question is who can keep pace with a low number.

5. Utah flavor and field shuffling. Bowen Mauss, the 2026 Utah State Amateur champion, got a sponsor exemption. The field also changed late: Lanto Griffin, Taylor Pendrith and Austin Eckroat withdrew, replaced by Kevin Streelman, Will Gordon and Harry Higgs.

The Presidents Cup tees off today and what lies below is all the major story lines going into Medinah Country Club.

1.Team USA is 13-1-1, with the USA winning the last 10. It’s a every lopsided rivalry. But maybe just maybe this is the year the International team does it. Vegas (Int. Moneyline is +1000), myself and probably most of the International team don’t think so.

2. Scottie Scheffler… Not a team guy, probably a good hang though. Scottie carries the top seed but as most golf fans know his team history ain’t great. It ain’t even mediocre. He’s 3-5-1 in President Cup team events and 0-2 in singles. The story here is can Scottie come through in team play? The future Ryder Cup depends on it.

3. The International side has lost every road Presidents Cup by at least three points since 1996 and is coming off back to back blowout losses. They are massive underdogs looking for a signature upset on U.S. soil. They will never get it. Over my dead body.

4. The Course itself is a bit of a storyline. None of the players on either team has played Medinah in competition since it reopened in 2024 following a renovation that dramatically changed how the course looks and plays. What was once a tree lined course now has wider fairways but more fescue and bunkering, plus even an out of bounds fence guarding a few holes. Notably was designed by an Australian.. suspicious.

5. Jackson Koivun will be making his Presidents Cup debut. Three months ago he was helping Auburn win a national title. Now he’s with the big boys. We are rooting for the young man.

After two weeks of operating on Euro-time, we are back to regularly scheduled programming this week with the first-ever Biltmore Championship.

The tournament is being held in Asheville, North Carolina, at The Cliffs at Walnut Cove, which plays a little over 7200 yds – not long by PGA Tour standards.

In addition to that, The Cliffs at Walnut Cove sits right at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains, so altitude will be a factor this week, and it looks beautiful.

As always with the Fedex Fall, the fields are not very top-heavy – so a winner can come from anywhere.

Justin Thomas was supposed to be competing, but dropped out this week, and he was the only major-winner in the field, so that leaves just two guys who finished the year inside the Top 50: Jacob Bridgeman and JT Poston.

Since this is the first tournament being held at The Cliffs, there is no historical or shotlink data to rely on for picking a winner this week, but of course we will try anyway.

If you’ve been following along, it should be noted that Keith Stewart is on a bit of a heater right now:

  • BMW: Wyndham
  • FM Champ: Ruoning
  • Solheim: Europe
  • Irish Open: Shane Lowry

So, in addition to his normal weekly picks, he’s throwing out a free one.

Keith Stewart’s Picks

 

Outright pick: Rasmus Højgaard (+3300 Draft Kings)

Fourth at the Rocket Classic, and runner-up at the Danish Golf Championship, Rasmus Højgaard has three top 11 finishes in his last five starts. Højgaard’s combined play across two tours has kept him sharp. Worried about all of the travel distractions, Højgaard finished third last year at the Sanderson Farms Fall Series event one week after the Ryder Cup at Bethpage.

Longshot pick: Blades Brown (+4100 DraftKings)

Blades Brown has three top 9 results in his last five starts. I realize he is playing the Korn Ferry Tour, but that’s the point: Brown is playing! A majority of this field has not competed in five weeks. The Biltmore winner will need subpar scores. Blades is ranked second in the field for BoB% and even more importantly, he has been making plenty of birdies recently.

Caddyshanks Picks

 

JT Poston (+3100 Draftkings)

There’s a lot of question marks surrounding this field and course, so I am going with proven winner this week. JT Poston has won once this year, at The Memorial, and he’s had a very solid season overall.

Emiliano Grillo (+6200 Draftkings)

After a bumpy start to his season, Grillo has had a much stronger finish, but only one Top 10 all year. I know that doesn’t exactly inspire confidence, but rumors are that the rough will be 6+ inches and he is a very accurate driver of the golf ball, plus it’s a wide open field so you’ve gotta have at least one longshot on the card.

Golf without a little money on the line is still golf. But golf with something on the line is a different sport entirely. Suddenly every putt matters. Suddenly the par-5 on 14 is a real decision. Suddenly you find out a lot about the people you play with.

Here are 10 betting games worth knowing – from the ones every golfer should have in rotation to the ones that will ruin a Saturday in the best possible way.

1. Nassau

The most common golf bet in the world, and for good reason. A Nassau is three bets in one: front nine, back nine, and overall 18. Each is typically worth the same amount. Simple to track, hard to blow completely – even if you lose the front badly, you can still win the back and the overall. Every golfer should know this one. If you don’t, you probably haven’t played with anyone who cares about golf.

2. Skins

Each hole has a set value. Win the hole outright, you win the skin. Tie the hole and the skin carries over to the next one. By the 17th, a carried-over skin can be worth an uncomfortable amount of money. Skins rewards the hot hand and creates genuine drama on every hole, even when you’re already out of the round.

3. Wolf

One player per hole is designated the Wolf. The Wolf watches each player tee off in order and decides after each shot whether to take that person as a partner. If the Wolf doesn’t pick anyone, they go Lone Wolf against the field – double or nothing. Rotates every hole. High strategy, high variance, endlessly entertaining once everyone understands the rules.

4. Bingo Bango Bongo

Three points available per hole: first ball on the green (Bingo), closest to the pin once everyone’s on (Bango), first ball in the hole (Bongo). Points are worth whatever you agree on upfront. Works especially well in groups with mixed handicaps because it rewards different skills – long hitters, short game specialists, and good putters all have a path to points.

5. Match Play

Head to head, hole by hole. Win a hole, you go one up. Lose a hole, you go one down. Win by more holes than remain and the match is over — a 4&3 win means you won by four holes with three remaining. No scorecards, no math, no cumulative disaster. Just hole-by-hole competition. The format every major uses for a reason.

6. Vegas (a.k.a. Monte Carlo)

A team game. Each side combines their two scores into a two-digit number, lowest score first. If your team shoots a 4 and a 6, your score is 46. If the other team shoots a 5 and a 7, their score is 57. Difference is 11 points. Get assigned an unlucky 9 on a hole and watch your partner turn white as they realize the other team just scored 49 against your 99. Vegas lives up to its name.

7. Hammer

Start with a base bet on the hole. At any point before someone holes out, either player (or team) can throw the Hammer – doubling the bet. The other side must accept or concede the hole. You can Hammer back. It adds a poker element to every shot and creates genuinely awful decisions with the ball in the air. Not recommended for new friendships.

8. Greenies, Sandies, and Birdies

Side bets that run alongside whatever else you’re playing. A Greenie pays out to whoever hits the green first on a par 3, but only if they make par or better. A Sandie pays for making par out of a bunker. A Birdie is self-explanatory. Stack these on top of a Nassau and suddenly every shot has something attached to it.

9. Stableford

Points-based format instead of stroke play. Double bogey or worse: 0 points. Bogey: 1. Par: 2. Birdie: 3. Eagle: 4. The math is simple. The effect is significant – a blow-up hole costs you two points instead of torpedoing your entire scorecard. Great format for groups where skill levels vary and stroke play turns into a slog by the back nine.

10. Snake

Also called Putting Snake or just Snake. Whoever three-putts first is holding the Snake. They hold it until someone else three-putts, at which point the Snake passes. Whoever is holding the Snake at the end of the round pays the table. No one talks about their putting more carefully than a group playing Snake. The psychological weight of that Snake by the 16th hole is something you have to experience.

A few ground rules: agree on stakes before the first tee, not after. Keep it at a level where everyone’s comfortable. And know that the best golf bet is one where everyone’s trying on every hole — even the ones who are already losing.

Want more golf content that doesn’t take itself too seriously?

Whether you’re a member, a guest playing on someone else’s membership, or someone who walked confidently through the pro shop and hasn’t been questioned yet – the goal is the same: look like you’ve been here before.

Some people have a natural ease in nicer environments. Others look uncomfortable the moment there’s a dress code. The difference is rarely money. It’s usually just a few things done consistently.

Dress Like You’ve Been There Before

Nothing signals “first time at a nice club” faster than over-dressing or under-dressing. Over-dressing: showing up in full tournament attire, logoed head to toe, like you’re walking the first tee at Augusta. Under-dressing: wrinkled shirt, shorts that are too short, shoes that belong at a barbecue.

Aim for quiet and put-together. A well-fitted polo, clean neutral shorts or slacks, good shoes. You don’t need to announce yourself. Let the surroundings do that.

Know The Pace Of Play

At a nicer club, pace of play is taken seriously (although this should be the case everywhere). Be ready to hit when it’s your turn. Have your club pulled before you get to your ball. Walk with purpose. Don’t spend four minutes searching for a ball that’s clearly lost – drop and move on. The balls aren’t made of gold, dude.

The people who look like they belong are almost always the ones keeping things moving. The people who look like guests are the ones holding up the tee box while rummaging through their bag.

Your Phone Goes In Your Pocket

Not completely away. But mounted on the cart face-up while you scroll Instagram between shots – that’s not what people who look comfortable at nice courses do. A nice course is a break from the screen. Use it that way.

Take it out for the GPS, grab a photo, text from the clubhouse. Otherwise, put it away. The course will still be there.

Tip Correctly

At most private or semi-private clubs, the bag staff and cart attendants expect a tip. Know this before you arrive. Have cash. Fumbling around asking your playing partner “do you tip here?” is one of the clearest signals you’re not a regular.

A reasonable range: $5–10 for bag handling, $20 for a good service. More for caddies. Know the norm, execute quietly, move on.

Also, If you’re in a foursome, it would be considered good manners to throw the cart guys a tip on behalf of the whole group, not just yourself, when you are the guest.

The Equipment Rule

If you have a caddie carrying your bag, take all of the unnecessary stuff out – your caddie doesn’t want to carry six training aids and a water cooler for 18 holes.

Your equipment doesn’t need to be new or this season’s model – nobody actually cares about that. But it should be clean. Dirty grooves, a bag with a broken zipper, headcovers held together with hope – these stand out far more than a bag full of last year’s clubs ever would. Don’t be a slob.

 

Looking like you belong somewhere is mostly about having good manners. 

Want more golf content that doesn’t take itself too seriously?

You’re not out of shape. You exercise. You take care of yourself. And then you play 18 holes on a Saturday and spend the rest of the weekend walking like you fell out of a tree.

This is a solvable problem. Not by buying a new driver. By doing a few things consistently that most weekend golfers skip because they’re in a hurry to tee off.

Get A Lesson And Learn To Swing Correctly

Here’s the thing most people don’t want to hear: a bad golf swing doesn’t just cost you distance and accuracy. It costs you your body. The golf swing puts real rotational stress on the lower back, hips, and shoulders — and when that swing is built on compensations and bad mechanics, those forces go places they shouldn’t.

A proper swing is efficient. The power comes from your hips and core rotating in sequence, not from your back wrenching through the ball. The follow-through finishes in balance, not with you lurching forward trying to steer a poorly-struck shot. When you swing correctly, the movement feels athletic and controlled. When you swing incorrectly, you’re grinding through impact in ways your body wasn’t designed for.

One or two lessons with a qualified instructor — not a tip from your buddy who shoots 94 — can change the way your body feels after a round. You’ll hit it better. You’ll hit it farther. And you’ll stop waking up Sunday morning feeling like you moved furniture all day. Fix the swing first. Everything else on this list helps, but it helps most when the fundamental movement isn’t actively working against you.

Walk When You Can

The cart is comfortable and the cart is making you worse. Walking 18 holes is roughly four miles of low-intensity movement that keeps your body warm, your blood flowing, and your muscles loose between shots. Riding means sitting cold for eight minutes, then jumping out and trying to swing a club at full speed. That’s a recipe for a stiff back and a ruined swing.

Walk at least nine. Walk 18 when the course allows it. Your body will feel noticeably different by the back nine.

Hydrate Like It’s A Job

You’re outside for four hours. Probably in the sun. Probably having a beer or two at the turn. By the 15th hole you’re mildly dehydrated and wondering why everything feels heavy and hard.

Drink water before you start. Carry a bottle on the cart. Drink it. Dehydration makes you tired, stiff, and worse at golf. This is the advice that gets ignored most consistently by recreational golfers, and it’s also the one with the fastest payoff.

Don’t Skip The Warm-Up

Ten minutes on the range before you tee off is not optional. It’s the difference between feeling good by the 4th hole versus the 14th. You wouldn’t walk into a gym and immediately max out on the bench press. Don’t walk up to the first tee and immediately try to hit a driver 280 yards.

Hit some wedges, work up to your irons, hit a few drivers, roll some putts. Give your body a chance to remember what it’s doing.

Stretch The Things That Actually Get Tight

Three areas wreck most weekend golfers: hip flexors (destroyed by cart riding), thoracic spine (locks up from repeated rotation and bad posture between shots), and hamstrings (shortened from riding and general sitting).

Spend three minutes between the 9th green and the 10th tee — hip flexor stretch, thoracic rotation, standing hamstring stretch. It sounds like something that wouldn’t help. It will help.

The Post-Round Routine

You’re going to want to sit down immediately and get a beer. Before you do: spend five minutes doing some light movement. Walk around. Do a few stretches. Give your body a few minutes to transition out of four hours of activity before you collapse into a chair.

That beer will taste just as good five minutes later. And you’ll feel significantly less like a reanimated corpse the next morning.

Golf is supposed to be fun. Feeling terrible the day after is optional. Fix the swing, do the small things consistently, and you’ll play more, feel better, and probably score lower while you’re at it.

Want more golf content that doesn’t take itself too seriously?

On August 21st, 2026, the popular Youtube channel Good Good golf accidentally detonated a bomb that destroyed the entire world. While in pursuit of promoting their new driver collab with Callaway they decided to put their years of creating golf content at work by making a video advertisement. You can see the now deleted post (viewer descretion advised) here. Hopefully after watching that you’ve now had a few minutes to compose yourself.

The men and women who were outraged by this ad said it promoted violence against women, some even saying that they felt triggered by the ad. Sure you can’t tell someone how they should feel about anything. But obviously no one at Good Good Golf felt that that is what they were trying to do. They just wanted to make a humorous ad that felt like a horror movie. The woman who got shoved to the ground consented to it and believed in what they were trying to communicate, which wasn’t that if some chick touches your driver you’re allowed to respond like Sean Taylor in the 2006 pro bowl. Their biggest crime was just making an awful ad for a driver.

The Fall Out

  • Both Callaway and Good Good issued statements apologizing and taking ownership of the ad
  • Callaway removed all Good Good co-branded drivers and balls from it’s site
  • Golf Galaxy (and parent Dick’s Sporting Goods) pulled Good Good merchandise from websites and reportedly ordered it removed from store shelves
  • Golf Channel postponed the premier of Good Good’s rebooted reality show for the network.

Final Thoughts

The ad was dumb and unfunny and really didn’t promote the driver it was trying to sell, but it wasn’t the end of the world and no one walked away from watching it believing that it is okay to hit women. The reaction to it has been a bit over the top. Good Good will definitely take a hit but will probably be fine and this will all just be a bad dream for them.

 

Wyndham Clark played his first 36 holes at the BMW Championship without making a bogey, shooting 64 both days.

In the third round, he doubled the first hole—and then played the remaining 17 holes in 7-under to shoot 65.

He still almost blew it on Sunday.

How? By making three bogeys in his first 10 holes.

After all that good golf through the first three rounds, Clark watched his five-stroke lead disappear.

Poof. Gone.

And just like at the U.S. Open at Shinnecock, the crowd seemed pretty happy to see it happen. They were certainly favoring Rory McIlroy, who caught Clark midway through the final round.

Clark stepped onto the 16th tee tied with Rory. He hadn’t made a birdie all day, and the odds were against him—the 232-yard par-3 had yielded just five birdies all round.

Then he made his best swing and his best putting stroke of the day, rolling in a birdie to regain the lead.

He went on to birdie the 17th and 18th as well, ultimately winning by three strokes over Patrick Cantlay after McIlroy faltered with a bogey on the 17th.

The BMW Championship was Clark’s third victory of the season. He’s officially a lock for the Presidents Cup team—and firmly in the Player of the Year conversation.

Player of the Year?

Wyndham Clark has an argument.

He’s won three times this season, including a major championship.

Matt Fitzpatrick and Chris Gotterup have also won three times, but neither won a major.

Scottie Scheffler has the best statistical résumé and two victories, but he didn’t win a major this season.

So, what matters more: the best golf over the full season or three victories with a major?

What’s Next?

The TOUR Championship at East Lake.

Fifty golfers have made the 284-mile trek from Memphis to St. Louis to compete in this week’s BMW Championship.

The host course, Bellerive Country Club, was designed by Robert Trent Jones and is known to be a bit of a brute.

As a result, it even has its own nickname: The Green Monster of Ladue.

Bellerive has hosted three major championships—the 1965 U.S. Open, where Gary Player completed the career Grand Slam; the 1992 PGA Championship, won by Nick Price; and the 2018 PGA Championship.

2018 was the last time golf fans saw this course, and it was a doozy.

If you recall, that PGA Championship was won by some guy named Brooks Koepka, while some other guy named Tiger Woods tried to chase him down with a 64 on Sunday.

Koepka answered with a 66 and took home the hardware.

Neither of them is in the field this week, eight years later, but man, Tiger’s highlights from that final round are still fun to watch.

 


Brooks won with a score of 16-under that year.

This week, the books are projecting the winning score to land around 262, which would be 18-under since Bellerive will play as a par 70 for these guys—and a par 72 for the rest of us.

Moving from the past to the present, the top 30 in the FedExCup standings after this week will advance to the TOUR Championship at East Lake.

Key Stats for the BMW Championship

Based on 2018 PGA Championship data*

  • Prioritize bombers. Bellerive strongly favored longer hitters in 2018, making driving distance and power a much more important filter than accuracy off the tee.
  • Approach play was the biggest separator. Strokes Gained: Approach accounted for 41.7% of scoring variance, well above the TOUR average of 34.9%. Look for players combining length with elite iron play.
  • Don’t over-weight putting or short game. Putting and around-the-green play accounted for less scoring variance than normal. With a 1.05 skill slope, better players also held a modest advantage—pointing toward big-name, high-end ball strikers rather than short-game specialists or pure longshots.

Keith Stewart’s Picks

Viktor Hovland (+3000, FanDuel)

If anyone can compete with Scottie Scheffler on approach, it is Viktor Hovland.

A proven winner at the BMW Championship in 2023 on a course that draws strong comparisons to Olympia Fields, I’m backing an aggressive player who fell out of contention in Memphis because the driver went awry.

Bellerive gives him a little more room off the tee, and I love the bounce-back potential for the 2023 FedExCup champion.

Hovland ranks fifth in the field on approach over the last few events and fourth in Birdies or Better Percentage.

Firepower, elite iron play, and the overall trend—I’m all in.

Wyndham Clark (+3300, DraftKings)

There’s a ton of talk surrounding Jake Knapp this week.

I’ll take the shorter odds and, in my opinion, a better chance at winning with Wyndham Clark.

Why?

Very few players have beaten the world No. 1 head-to-head this year, and Clark did it at the CJ Cup.

I also like TPC Craig Ranch as a comparison course—albeit with less scoring at Bellerive—and Clark’s approach play this season separates him from many of the other driver-and-putter-heavy players.

Coming off a fifth-place finish at the St. Jude, if scoring and power are what we need this week, Wyndham can win.

Caddyshanks Picks

Hideki Matsuyama (+3000, DraftKings)

I have a friend who reads this newsletter every week just for the picks, and he constantly makes fun of me for how often I pick Hideki.

I don’t care one bit.

He has four top-10 finishes in his last four starts.

That is the definition of knocking on the door.

Si Woo Kim (+2700, DraftKings)

Si Woo has played so well all season but hasn’t been able to cash in.

Besides Scottie, Si Woo has the most top-10 finishes this season.

Can he—or Hideki—finally get one across the finish line?

Scottie Scheffler (+350, DraftKings)

Wouldn’t you know it?

Last week was the first week I didn’t write about the “Bet Scottie Every Week” strategy—which has not exactly been a profitable endeavor—and then he goes out and wins.

He’ll probably go back-to-back now.
