CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The Wells Fargo Championship is known for occasionally producing young winners who aren't exactly household names on the PGA Tour, much less across the general sports landscape.

Remember Derek Ernst in 2013, James Hahn in 2016 or Brian Harman in 2017?

So how about Peter Malnati or Aaron Wise for this year's championship?

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- It may have taken 36 holes, but we finally got a glimpse of the old Tiger Woods -- on his final hole Friday.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- A golf rarity happened during Thursday's Wells Fargo Championship at Quail Hollow Club -- twice.

First-round leader John Peterson shot a 6-under par 65. The key to his round was consecutive eagles on the seventh and eighth holes (he began his round on the 10th hole).

That almost never happens -- except it did earlier in the ...Read more

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- For all the hoopla, the anticipation and excitement that came with Tiger Woods' first round at Quail Hollow Club in six years, there were few highlights. Few "wow" moments.

AUGUSTA, Ga. -- How do you like Patrick Reed now?

Say what you will about the golfer who brings out certain visceral emotions in the crowd, the kind that often requires a pro wrestler in a mask to evoke. Both at home and abroad.

Bring out all the media dredges and let them work long into the night to unearth the venal sins of his youth and the...Read more

AUGUSTA, Ga. -- Jordan Spieth can still make them roar at the Masters.

Even when he starts the final round nine strokes off the lead and tied for ninth.

AUGUSTA, Ga. -- Paul Casey was playing with a marker on Saturday. He nearly shot the Masters course record on Sunday.

Casey missed the record of 63 after trouble on the final two holes.

Casey made the cut at the number, 5-over par, after the first two rounds of the 2018 Masters. Going out first, with a non-competitive marker, he shot a 3-under...Read more

AUGUSTA, Ga. -- Patrick Reed looks like a guy who spends his Sunday afternoons at the grill, arguing that charcoal makes the meat taste better.

His look is awkward -- ill-fitting pants, an upside down pin on his hat, a magenta shirt that will never catch on. His most common look is a scowl, and fellow Texan Jordan Spieth is infinitely more ...Read more

But, now, let the first Augusta National mock Ryder Cup commence.

It will be Reed and Rory McIlroy at 40 paces on Masters Sunday, reprising their memorable Ryder Cup ...Read more

Woods bogeyed the hole Thursday and Friday when hit finished in Rae's Creek. On Saturday, his tee shot safely found the green. After raising his arms, Woods made the safe sign with...Read more

AUGUSTA, Ga. -- Tiger Woods confirmed what had been an urban legend in Chicago golf circles: President Obama called to ask him to take on the Jackson Park/South Shore golf project.
