Pro golf’s feud continues as LIV Golf announces first 4 events of 2025

The ongoing feud between pro golf’s PGA Tour and the Saudi-backed rival LIV Golf has reached new heights as LIV Golf has announced its first four events of 2025. The tournaments will take place in Mayakoba, Mexico, Sentosa, Singapore, Adelaide, Australia, and Valderrama, Spain. The announcement comes amid ongoing legal battles between the sides, with the PGA Tour claiming its players have breached their contracts by competing in LIV events. LIV Golf has been criticized for its ties to Saudi Arabia’s alleged human rights abuses, but has tempted away a number of high-profile players with large prize pools and reduced playing commitments.

‘This is outrageous’: Pro’s cracked driver highlights concerning gray area

A professional golfer’s cracked driver has brought to light a concerning gray area in the rules of the game.

The golfer, who has not been identified, was playing in a tournament when his driver cracked during his swing. He was forced to withdraw from the tournament and was later penalized for using a non-conforming club.

Others argue that the rules are necessary to ensure fairness and consistency in the game. They say that allowing repairs to be made would open the door to abuse, with players potentially repairing their drivers to gain an unfair advantage.

How does Collin Morikawa’s swing work? We break it down

How does Collin Morikawa’s swing work? We break it down

Collin Morikawa’s swing is a thing of beauty. It’s smooth, powerful, and efficient. But what makes it work so well?

Morikawa’s swing is built around a strong foundation. He has a wide stance, with his feet shoulder-width apart. His knees are slightly bent, and his back is straight. This gives him a solid base from which to swing.

Morikawa also has a very good grip on the club. His hands are positioned so that the club is resting in the palms of his hands. His thumbs are pointing down the shaft of the club, and his fingers are wrapped around the grip. This grip gives him a lot of control over the club.

Morikawa’s backswing is relatively short and smooth. He takes the club back to about shoulder height, and then he starts to transition into his downswing.

Morikawa’s downswing is very aggressive. He swings the club down into the ball with a lot of force. His timing is impeccable, and he always makes contact with the ball in the sweet spot.

Morikawa’s follow-through is also very important. He swings the club all the way through the ball, and he finishes with his weight on his left foot. This gives him a lot of power and control.
