Amid a decade-long wait for another major championship victory, Rory McIlroy has explained how his mentality has adapted in recent times and how his game has changed in the past ten years Rory McIlroy has admitted that he has not been as much of a “risk taker” on the golf course in recent years – amid his decade-long wait for another major championship triumph. The Northern Irish superstar’s last success in that regard came in the form of the 2014 PGA Championship at Valhalla, which was his fourth major win. He also tasted glory at the 2011 US Open, 2012…
If you are a Tiger Woods fan, better prepare yourself. Wait… don’t get confused! We only meant that the golfer and his son might not be able to tee it up at the 2024 PNC Championship. But even though Charlie Woods and his father might miss something that has become close to an annual family tradition, the former will have to prepare himself. Any guesses why? Well, on the off chance that he does show it off, Woods Jr. would have to face his 13-year-old rival. Yes, we are talking exactly about Annika Sorenstam’s son, the athlete who recently turned…
It hasn’t been the best year for Tiger Woods! Any guesses why? Well, the 15-time major champ, on the one hand, had to undergo back surgery for the spasms he was experiencing. On the other hand, his brand, Sun Day Red, was at the end of constant criticism owing to its overpriced nature and subpar quality. Moreover, the athlete’s brand is also facing a lawsuit over its logo from Tigeraire. But hey Woods fans, do not worry! The 48-year-old and his clothing brand finally seem to have found their moment. A series of pictures of the Hall of Famer in…
Revenge is a dish best served cold and Tiger Woods enjoyed getting his own back. Tiger Woods taunted Paul Tesori with his own special cap at the 2019 Presidents Cup (Image: Instagram: golfdigest) Tiger Woods waited nearly two decades to get his own back on a caddie who poked the bear during the 2000 Presidents Cup. Paul Tesori was on the receiving end of the 15-time major champion’s brutal retaliation after trying and failing to get in his head. It all started when Tesori, while caddying for three-time major winner Vijay Singh, turned up to the Sunday singles match between…
Almost 15 years since his cheating scandal turned her world upside down, Tiger Woods’ ex-wife Elin Nordegren is ‘living her sweet dream’ after moving on with former NFL star Jordan Cameron. Woods and Nordegren, who were married for six years before the golf legend’s string of affairs came to light in 2009, reunited on Monday after both attending their son Charlie’s high school state golf championship ceremony.

Tiger Woods is designing another golf course. He announced the project he soon be working on through his social media, just weeks after the update of his recent back surgery. While this sounds like really good news for the golfing community in Aledo, it sounds like a business travesty for the 15-time major champion and his partner. According to Tiger Woods‘s post, his TGR Design is teaming up with the Blue Jack Nation and Mitchell Family to build a golfing community in the city of Aledo, Texas. Notably, his first steps in the US golf course architect world were with…
The PNC Championship is the place where fans get to see golf as a family affair. It’s the place where the sport’s toughest competitors become proud parents by cheering on their kids and creating unforgettable moments. Tiger Woods and his son Charlie Woods have been doing that for quite some time; however, there is a bump in the road this year. We all know that Woods got lumbar spine surgery recently, marking his fifth back operation, and is in rehab right now. The chances of his participation look bleak as of now and this has cast a shadow on Charlie…

Unbeknownst to most people in DFW, Tiger Woods has visited Fort Worth recently to “play” on a golf course. Still the world’s most famous golfer, by a considerable distance, you may see Tiger a few more times around Fort Worth in the coming year. He is involved in the design and construction of a golf course in Aledo that should be open in early 2026. Should be. Weather permitting. A plan that was in the inception phase for years is finally underway in west Fort Worth. The Bluejack Ranch in Aledo will be a high end community that features a…
Tiger Woods has etched his name into time immemorial with his contributions and stature in golf. However, in his extensive career, he has undergone so many surgeries that he is no longer a stranger to slipping out of events. In the past two years, he has decided only to take part in the Majors, and some very selective signature events. Looks like now he will be appearing on the golfing greens sporadically. But why is it so? Tiger Woods has been an old victim to back pains. This started back in March 2014, when he had to withdraw on the…
Fans might not be enthusiastic about TGL, but sponsors are! While a recent poll on social threw TGL’s future into uncertainty, Rory McIlroy scored another touchdown for his TGL franchise. Financial giant, FM has announced a partnership with Boston Common Golf. Malcolm Roberts, chairman and chief executive officer of FM in a statement, said, “We share TGL’s ambition of innovation, and we appreciate its commitment to leveraging science and technology to explore and develop new ways of making golf more accessible to a global audience.” This is a significant stepping stone for the nascent league which is yet to witness…
LIV Golf CEO Greg Norman has spoken about the organisation’s new communications officer, who previously worked with Nike and Coverse Greg Norman has praised LIV Golf’s newest recruit ahead of the 2025 season. The LIV Golf calendar ended with the Team Championship finals in Dallas last month. Ripper GC clinched the title with a three-stroke lead, partly thanks to late birdie putts from captain Cameron Smith and Lucas Herbert, and claimed the £10.5million ($14m) grand prize. The end of the 2024 season gives the breakaway league time to bolster their ranks, with the new campaign beginning in Riyadh in February.…
Rory McIlroy has made his feelings clear ahead his interactions with two of the most powerful men in golf – LIV Golf chairman Yasir Al-Rumayyan and PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan – this week Rory McIlroy says the game of golf “needs” to change in a plea to PGA Tour and LIV Golf bosses ahead of this week’s Alfred Dunhill Links Championship in Scotland. Rarely for the four-time major champion, McIlroy is arguably not the headline attraction at the tournament this week – which is played across St Andrews, Carnoustie and Kingsbarns. PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan and LIV Golf…
Arguably, the men’s first major gets the most hype. The 2020 season was not different, but the patrons couldn’t be at Augusta National because of COVID-19 restrictions. Thus, the golfers were alone without any cheers or to witness Tiger Woods’s career-worst shot. If you have forgotten, Woods was the defending champion, and at the age of 44, people still expected him to win another. However, the 15-time major winner was nowhere close to contending, and that got worse as he shot 10 at the par-3 12th hole. Although patrons weren’t there to watch it, it was still all over the…
The wait for the Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy’s brainchild league, TGL, would finally be over in just two months!

As previously revealed, TGL will have six different teams, one being Boston Common Golf featuring McIlroy, Hideki Matsuyama, Keegan Bradley, and Adam Scott. Owned by the Fenway Sports…

TGL wasn’t off to a good start. TGL offers a team concept, yes like LIV Golf, but what sets it apart is the technology. The golf world once accused TGL of copying LIV Golf, and it garnered a lot of criticism when its launch was delayed because of an unfortunate roof-collapsing accident because of weather. It was then announced that TGL would be rolled out early in 2025, but now it seems that fans are not so excited about it anymore. TGL is the brainchild of big names like Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy. NUCLR GOLF ran a poll on…

Despite having a better run in the 2023/24 season, Thomas wasn’t part of this year’s Presidents Cup team, even though he’s currently ranked as the world No. 30. Back in 2019,…

The Presidents Cup has been an incredible spectacle for golf fans these past two days. After the first day’s dominance by Team USA, Friday and Saturday were much more tense and competitive. Team International has jumped into the competition, fully immersing themselves in the exhilarating battle for the highly coveted trophy. However, much might know that the tension of the Presidents Cup is no stranger to Tiger Woods. Recently, the 15-time major champion spoke about how nerve-wracking playing in the team tournament was for him.
