Pendrith, eyeing 1st Tour win, atop Byron Nelson

Canadian Adam Pendrith, buoyed by his recent runner-up finish at the Rocket Mortgage Classic, is poised to contend for his maiden PGA Tour victory at the 2024 CJ Cup Byron Nelson.

Pendrith has shown remarkable form this season, consistently finishing in the Top 30. His ability to drive the ball long and straight, coupled with his deft touch around the greens, makes him a formidable threat at TPC Louisiana.

While the tournament features a star-studded field, including Jon Rahm, Scottie Scheffler, and Justin Thomas, Pendrith’s pre-tournament odds have him in contention for the title.

If he can maintain his recent form and capitalize on his opportunities, Pendrith has the potential to upset the established order and etch his name in the history books with his first PGA Tour triumph.

Jordan Spieth’s drive goes awry. Then a fan gets a $20, a ball and a welt

Jordan Spieth’s drive careened wildly into the gallery at the Charles Schwab Challenge, striking a fan and earning him an unusual souvenir – a $20 bill, a golf ball and a welt on his forehead.

Spieth’s tee shot on the par-4 13th hole Friday sailed right and struck the fan, who was sitting in the grandstand. Spieth immediately walked over to check on the man, who had a red mark on his forehead.

The fan, identified as John Attenweiler Sr., said he was “doing great” after being hit by the ball. “All good. $20, a ball and a welt. Can’t beat that,” Attenweiler told reporters.

Peter Oosterhuis, the longtime CBS golf analyst who passed away at 75, was known for his in-depth knowledge of the game and his ability to connect with viewers. In a 2017 interview with Golf Digest, Oosterhuis discussed his work ethic and how he prepared for his broadcasts.

“To be honest, I spend a lot of time watching golf,” Oosterhuis said. “I watch the PGA Tour, the European Tour, and the LPGA Tour, as well as the Korn Ferry Tour and the Symetra Tour, and I read everything I can get my hands on about golf. I also talk to a lot of players, caddies, and coaches to get their insights on the game.”

Oosterhuis said that he also spends a lot of time preparing for his broadcasts. “I like to have a good understanding of the course we’re playing and the players in the field,” he said. “I want to be able to give viewers information and insights that they can’t get anywhere else.”

Wallace on rebound, up by 1 at Byron Nelson

Matt Wallace carded a 4-under-par 66 on Thursday to take a one-shot lead after the first round of the CJ Cup at Byron Nelson.

I felt like I did that today,” Wallace said. “I putted better. And, yeah, just one silly bogey, which is more than acceptable.”

Did LIV pros cross ‘etiquette’ line at Masters? 3-time major winner has thought

**LIV Pros’ Masters Etiquette Draws Scrutiny**

3-time major champion Padraig Harrington has expressed concern over the behavior of LIV Golf players at the Masters. Harrington claims that some LIV pros “crossed an etiquette line” by not following long-standing traditions of the tournament.

According to Harrington, some LIV players wore shorts during practice rounds, which is not permitted under the Masters’ dress code. They also allegedly used electronic devices on the course, another violation of tournament rules.

Harrington’s comments have sparked a debate about whether LIV players are disrespectful of golf’s traditions. Some argue that they are simply bringing a different culture to the game, while others believe they are undermining the integrity of the sport.
