The 2023 John Deere Classic kicks off this week at TPC Deere Run. Here’s everything you need to know to watch the event, including a full John Deere Classic TV schedule, streaming schedule and complete tee times for the first round.

John Deere Classic preview

The Open Championship is creeping closer and closer, and Tour pros not already qualified only have two opportunities left to earn a spot in the final major of the year.

This week’s John Deere Classic is one of them. The popular event held annually in Illinois doesn’t feature a star-studded field this season given its spot on the schedule, but it’s well-attended and much-loved by locals. It has also been the scene for some big moments in golf history (see: Jordan Spieth ).

The betting favorites this week are PGA Tour veterans Denny McCarthy and Russell Henley, and several pros will be looking for their maiden victory, including rising star Cameron Young.

Golf Channel and CBS will provide TV coverage of the John Deere Classic, and ESPN+, Peacock and Paramount+ will offer streaming coverage online.

Rickie fowler survives three-way playoff for dramatic win at 2023 rocket mortgage classic, share this article.

Rickie Fowler buried a 12-foot birdie putt on the first playoff hole to win a battle with Adam Hadwin and Collin Morikawa in Detroit and end a four-year victory drought at the Rocket Mortgage Classic.

“I knew it was just a matter of time with the way I was playing,” said Fowler, who notched his sixth career PGA Tour title.

It had been 1,610 days, or 4 years, 4 months, 29 days since his last win at the 2019 WM Phoenix Open, the longest victory drought of his Tour career.

Ten months ago, he was ranked No. 185 in the Official World Golf Ranking and barely qualified for the FedEx Cup Playoffs. Late last year, Fowler returned to working with his former instructor Butch Harmon and his game has made steady progress. He entered this week having finished in the top 20 in 12 of his 15 starts this year.

“It’s tough when you’re struggling for that long of a period of time,” said Fowler, noting that his play was building to this victory. “How I’ve played is some of the best if not the best I’ve felt about my game and on the course really ever.”

A champion once again 🏆 The winning moment for @RickieFowler @RocketClassic . pic.twitter.com/LEQ8f05gHN — PGA TOUR (@PGATOUR) July 2, 2023

After inclement weather in the forecast moved up final-round tee times at Detroit Golf Club and forced the use of preferred lies, the field dealt with intermittent showers and muggy conditions. Three players looking to end winless droughts emerged in a battle down the stretch, setting up for a thrilling finish.

Fowler, who held the 54-hole lead at the U.S. Open two weeks ago, shot 64 on Saturday to claim a one-stroke lead. But he was 2-for-10 in converting 54- hole leads and almost let this one slip away too. He made birdie on three of his first seven holes, including a 46-footer at No. 2, to stretch his lead to two but failed to capitalize on the par 5s and lost the lead late on the back nine. When it mattered most, the 34-year-old out of Oklahoma State stiffed his approach at 18 to 3 feet.

“Our back was against the wall,” said Fowler of his dramatic 72nd-hole wedge from 147 yards. He cashed in the putt for 68.

Returning to 18 for the first playoff hole, Fowler flared his drive right into trouble but he got relief from casual water and had a clean look at the green and knocked his approach to 11 feet, which turned out to be closest of the three playoff contestants.

Morikawa, who hadn’t won in two seasons and nearly two years – an eternity for the 26-year-old two-time major winner – shot a bogey-free 8-under 64.

“Playoffs suck when you’re on the wrong side of them,” Morikawa said. “You put everything you want into it and comes down to one hole, but that’s what golf is. You’ve got to perform, you’ve got to execute the shots.”

He erased a four-stroke deficit by making six birdies in his first 12 holes, and chipped close at the par-5 17 th to become the first player to reach 24 under and grab the lead for the first time in the tournament. His birdie putt at 18 to tie the course record lipped out of the left side of the cup. His approach in the playoff airmailed the green and his birdie chip from just off the green came up short.

“I truly thought I hit the perfect shot and I just was a little juiced, went a little far,” Morikawa said of his second shot at the playoff hole.

Hadwin, 35, was seeking his first win since the 2017 Valspar Championship, a drought even longer than Fowler, something that wasn’t lost on Hadwin or his caddie Joe Cruz.

“I looked at Joe on I think 15 and said, ‘Why don’t we do this more often? This is fun,’ ” Hadwin recounted.

Hadwin, who shot a final-round 67, made it a three-way tie for the lead at 23 under with a birdie at 15 and tied Morikawa with a birdie at 17. His approach to 18 rolled off the green, but he got up and down to shoot 67 and join Morikawa at 24-under 264. Hadwin’s 22-foot birdie effort at the first playoff hole burned the left edge.

“That putt on the playoff there looked really good, just a little bit hard,” he said.

Fowler’s winning putt benefited from a free read from Hadwin, and he rolled it in and soaked in the moment.

“I was kind of just still and quiet and everyone was going crazy around me,” he said. “It was a nice moment just to kind of feel like the weight on my shoulders was finally off.”

2023 PGA Tour schedule: The LIV money question, majors, key dates and changes

The 2023 PGA Tour schedule features 44 regular-season events and $428.6 million in official prize money, the PGA announced Monday. Another $145 million is available in bonuses.

The schedule includes six out of eight invitationals (the Sentry Tournament of Champions, Genesis Invitational, Arnold Palmer Invitational, Memorial Tournament, Players Championship and WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play) with significantly increased prize money.

As previously announced, the FedExCup Playoffs will include a smaller field than in years past. For the first round, 70 players will earn a start at the St. Jude Championship, then 50 players will advance to the BMW Championship and 30 to the TOUR Championship.

The 2023 schedule marks the last before the Tour transitions to a calendar-year season beginning in 2024.

View the full schedule and prize money changes here.

The changes come shortly about LIV Golf announced an expansion to 14 tournaments, with $405 million available in prize money, for 2023.

Here’s what you need to know about the 2023 PGA Tour schedule.

When are the majors?

Did any tournaments get a bad draw.

Organizers for the Travelers Championships, Rocket Mortgage Classic and John Deere Classic might be chasing player commitments in Hunger Games-style campaigns next spring. Those three events, in order from late June through early July, follow a stretch of play beginning in early May going from the Wells Fargo Championship to the Byron Nelson to the PGA Championship (Oak Hill) to the Charles Schwab to the Memorial to the Canadian Open to the U.S. Open (Los Angeles Country Club). All those are desirable starts and, in theory, more highly regarded than the Travelers, Rocket Mortgage or John Deere.

And immediately followed that Travelers-RMC-John Deere stretch? It’s the Scottish Open and and the Open Championship (Royal Liverpool).

How many events of those three squeezed-in tournament starts are high-profile players reasonably make? It’s easy to imagine some guys skipping two of them.

Of the three, though, the Rocket Mortgage faces an entirely separate issue. The tournament drew the Fourth of July slot on the calendar. As any Michigander will tell you, the southeast quadrant of the state often looks like an empty parking lot on the holiday weekend. The Rocket Mortgage previously landed on the Fourth of July in both 2020 and 2021. In 2020, no spectators were permitted, so it was moot. (But even still, that field included only 20 of the top 100 players in the world .) In 2021, attendance numbers dropped off from the inaugural event in 2019 (June 27-30). So, now, in 2023, the Rocket Mortgage will not only have to navigate a crowded window for players, but also a tough calendar for its locals.

Why did the money increase so much?

The gut reaction is, “Oh, LIV Golf arrived and suddenly the PGA Tour is opening up the purse strings. Hypocrisy!!”

Well, yeah, it’s not remotely that simple. Was the PGA Tour forced to bulk up prize money in response to LIV? Absolutely. No choice.

The fact is, though, purse increases were coming regardless. Would they have been to this extent? Would the eight invitationals increase their purses to range from $15 to $25 million? We don’t know. However, when the tour signed its new nine-year, $7 billion media rights agreement with CBS Sports, NBC Sports and ESPN back in March 2020, it wasn’t scheduled to go into effect until 2022 and wouldn’t have been reflected in 2021-22 season numbers. Now that the tour has arrived at the 2022-23 slate, the numbers are spiking. This was coming, LIV or no LIV.

The 2022-23 PGA TOUR schedule is here. • Condensed #FedExCup Playoffs fields (From 125/70/30 to 70/50/30) • Elevated purses for invitationals ($15 to $25 million) • Bonus pools increase to $145 million overall More details below ⬇️ — PGA TOUR (@PGATOUR) August 1, 2022

As far as the bonus pool goes, $145 million is available in 2022-23. The breakdown: $75 million for the FedEx Cup, $20 million for the Comcast Business Tour Top 10 and $50 million for the Player Impact Program.

All told, the purses money available for non-majors in 2022-23 comes to a total pot of $428.6 million, not including bonus money. That’s an increase of $68.3 million in non-major purses from 2022 to 2023.

Is extra money actually going to make a difference?

Good question. Probably not.

LIV Golf’s money cannon still dwarfs what the PGA Tour is offering. Even more, if the Saudi Public Investment Fund wants to put up another $2 billion into this asset to throw more outrageous figures at players — hey, would Rory McIlroy or Jordan Spieth or Justin Thomas or Jon Rahm turn down $500 million? How about $750 million? A billion? Point is, if the PIF wants to make that kind of money available and LIV organizers want to put forth those kind of offers, they can do it and there’s nothing the PGA Tour can do to compete with those sums.

Does more tour money makes it easier for those who say no to LIV to feel reasonably sensible? Maybe. But at the end of the day, the only reason anyone is staying on the PGA Tour instead of defecting to LIV is because they’re already wealthy and that’s where they want to play.

Why did the number of players who make the postseason shrink?

A few reasons, but most interesting to me is this 1) adds some drama of more established players potentially falling outside the top 70 and having to compete to retain their tour status and 2) adds some legitimate meaning to those events in the fall series for fans. Whereas there was little reason to flip over from football in previous years, now there’s at least a reason to check in.

Best week on the tour?

The 2023 schedule will see the Waste Management and the Super Bowl played on the same weekend in the same city. Send bail.

2023 3M Open leaderboard, grades: Lee Hodges goes wire-to-wire, wins by seven for first PGA Tour victory

Hodges fired a 67 sunday to get to 24 under at tpc twin cities and win for the first time on the pga tour.

Final rounds on the PGA Tour while in contention are meant to be stressful, but no one tell Lee Hodges that. The 28-year-old continued his dominance Sunday at the 2023 3M Open carding a final-round 67 to claim his first PGA Tour win in wire-to-wire fashion. Besting the field by seven strokes at 24 under, Hodges was in a class of his own over 72 holes at TPC Twin Cities.

Hodges's victory could not have come at a better time with the FedEx Cup Playoffs looming large. With his effort in the Land of 10,000 Lakes, the former Alabama Crimson Tide star makes a massive leap from outside the top 70 in the season-long race to 33rd. He will have work to do if he is to qualify for the Tour Championship for the first time in his career, but as of now he is firmly in the field for the St. Jude Championship and has the inside track to tee it up at the BMW Championship as well.

"This has been a dream week," Hodges said. "I've got the best caddie in the world. I've got the best wife in the world. I've got my mom and dad…I've got the best everybody. I mean, I've got the best team in the whole world, and they work so hard and I couldn't do it without them."

The smooth-swinging right hander never trailed over the weekend in Blaine, Minnesota, seeing his lead trimmed to as little as two after a nervy front nine on Saturday. It was that back nine in the third round which Hodges used to separate himself from the field and rid his system of any tension ahead of Sunday's deciding 18.

Hodges was at ease from the first tee shot in the final round. Splitting fairways and hitting greens in regulation, Hodges' initial punch connected early on the difficult par-4 2nd when his approach settled inside 5 feet to set up his first birdie of the round.

His overnight lead stretched to as many as seven when he converted an eagle on the sixth. Playing partner Poston held his own and attempted to apply pressure as the two traversed through the par 71. A bogey from Hodges on No. 9 and a birdie from Poston on No. 10 pulled the pursuer within five with a handful of scoring chances in view.

However, just as Hodges did on the front nine, a blistering approach from 256 yards into the par-5 12th squashed any thought of a herculean comeback. Setting up just a formality for eagle, Hodges's approach put him six clear of the field with six holes to go.

While there were some hairy moments coming in – namely a two-shot swing on the 15th – the trophy was as good as Hodges' from that point. Becoming the first wire-to-wire winner in the young history of the 3M Open, the PGA Tour sophomore captured himself a little sliver of history and his first invitation to The Masters with his dominant entry into the winner's circle. However, that is not all as Hodges has caught himself a wave of momentum heading into the postseason where history suggests anything can happen.  Grade: A+

Here is how the rest of the leaderboard looked at the 2023 3M Open.

T7. Tony Finau (-15):  Finau was great all week and would have been in the mix if not for Hodges' outrageous performance from beginning to end. He's going to be a really interesting test case for the U.S. Ryder Cup team, too. He heads into the final week of the regular season inside the top 10 in the FedEx Cup standings but outside the top 15 in the Ryder Cup standings. The latter is probably more indicative of overall play (Finau ranked 31st on the U.S. side in strokes gained over the last three months), and as a result, he's probably on the outside looking in at this point. However, if he  is  going to make the team, the formula is a scorching-hot final month of the year, including a win or near-win in one of the three FedEx Cup Playoffs events. Finau is in a good position to make it all the way to the Tour Championship, and at this point he put together a nice first step in his final push toward playing on his third Ryder Cup team in Rome.  Grade: A

T10. Cam Davis (-14):  After a bunch of nothing since a T4 at the PGA Championship, this is the finish (65 on Sunday) Davis needed to play his way into the FedEx Cup Playoffs. He's projected to move inside the top 70 with his finish this week at TPC Twin Cities, which is where a player like him should be heading toward the playoffs. Davis has taken a bit of a step back this year after five consecutive years of improvement and a game that looked like it was trending toward him being a top 20 player in the world. This week could be a nice inflection point in turning that around and getting him rolling the right way once again.  Grade: A

"I've been in a few situations where my back's been against the wall since I've turned pro," Davis said. "Most of the time it's worked out well for me and kept me moving forward. So I would like to keep that trend going and play well next week and get myself to the playoffs. … The goal is to play a really solid tournament next week."

T64. Ludvig Aberg (-3):  Aberg has had plenty of opportunities to make his case for the European Ryder Cup team in September. He's been nice in places, but through six starts, he only has one top 20 (a T4 at the John Deere Classic). Unless he wins next week's Wyndham Championship, he's not going to be in the FedEx Cup Playoffs, and I'm not sure you can pick a player based on one top 20 in seven starts (including next week's). That could change, of course, but it's clear he's going to have to develop a bit to go with his otherworldly skills off the tee. I fully expect that he will do so and go on to become a top 20 player in the world, but the Ryder Cup chatter is probably slightly premature.  Grade: C+

Rick Gehman is joined by Kyle Porter, Patrick McDonald and Mark Immelman to break down Lee Hodges' wire to wire victory at the 3M Open. Follow & listen to The First Cut on  Apple Podcasts  and  Spotify .  

Lee Hodges takes three-stroke lead to 72nd hole

It is a dropped shot from our leader on the par-3 17th as Lee Hodges drops to 23 under. He will need to avoid the dreaded three-shot swing on the par-5 18th. The good news for JT Poston, his closest pursuer, is something like that may be possible on the final hole with an eagle, bogey finish. It is far-fetched, but weirder things have happened.

Two-shot swing on 15

Alright, well the door may have been cracked open ever so slightly with three holes to go. JT Poston makes birdie on the 15th, and Lee Hodges needs three putts from the front of the green to card only his second bogey of the day. He is at 23 under with Poston at 19 under. Next up is a drivable par 4.

Illinois PGA Announces 2023 Tournament Schedule

Feb 10, 2023

2023 Illinois PGA Full Schedule

GOLF, Ill. – February 10, 2023 –  The Illinois PGA has announced its tournament schedule for the 2023 season. This season will feature over 50 Illinois PGA Section events. The types of events will vary each week. The 2023 schedule will showcase Illinois PGA Major Championships, the Illinois Open Series, Illinois Open Qualifiers, single-day Stroke Play Events, Pro-Special Events, and Pro-Am Events.

2023 Illinois PGA Major Championships: The 2023 Illinois PGA tournament schedule is highlighted by the Illinois PGA Major Championships; the Illinois PGA Match Play Championship presented by Harris Golf Cars, the 74th Illinois Open Championship, the Nadler Golf Cars Illinois PGA Professional Championship, and the Illinois PGA Players Championship.

The Illinois PGA Majors kick off with the Illinois PGA Match Play presented by Harris Golf Cars. This event will return to Bull Valley Golf Club for the second time in three years.

The defending Champion of this event is Chris Nieto, PGA (Exmoor Country Club).

The Illinois Open Championship is venturing south in 2023. For the first time in the Championship’s 73 years, the Illinois Open will be contested at Flossmoor Golf Club.

A total of 10 Illinois PGA Members will qualify for the National Championship in 2024.

Miles Russell to make PGA Tour debut as 15-year-old amateur at Rocket Mortgage Classic in Detroit

• Copy Link copied

DETROIT (AP) — Miles Russell , the 15-year-old from Florida who became the youngest player in Korn Ferry Tour history to make a cut, has accepted a sponsor exemption to make his PGA Tour debut at the Rocket Mortgage Classic .

“Ever since I first started playing golf, my dream has been to compete on the PGA Tour and test my game against the best players,” Russell said Monday. “I’m looking forward to making the most of the experience later this month.”

Rickie Fowler will try to defend his Rocket Mortgage Classic title at the Detroit Golf Club starting June 27.

Russell shot a 5-under 66 in April at the Lecom Suncoast Classic in Longwood, Florida, to make the cut on the PGA Tour’s developmental circuit. The high school freshman from Jacksonville Beach has been taking online classes since the eighth grade.

He was the American Junior Golf Association player of the year in 2023, which included his seven-shot win in the Junior PGA Championship and becoming the youngest winner of the Junior Players Championship.

Russell is expected to return to the Detroit area in July to compete at the U.S. Amateur at Oakland Hills Country Club.

“He has proved with his many accomplishments at such a young age that he belongs, and we are excited to see Miles compete alongside the world’s best golfers here at Detroit Golf Club,” Rocket Mortgage Classic Executive Director Jason Langwell said.

Earlier this year, the left-hander nearly qualified for a PGA Tour event before losing in a playoff in a Monday qualifier for the Puerto Rico Open.

Guan Tianlang of China is the youngest to make the cut in a PGA Tour-sanctioned event. He was 14 when he made the cut in the 2013 Masters, playing as the Asia-Pacific Amateur champion.

PGA Tour-LIV Golf Timeline: One year has passed and golf fans still are waiting for a deal

It was one of those news drops all golf fans never will forget.

June 6, 2023: The PGA Tour and LIV Golf announce a "framework agreement" to merge business entities after weeks of secret negotiations.

The PGA Tour, whose roots go back more than a century, and LIV Golf, the upstart league launched in June 2021 with tour antagonist Greg Norman as its face and financed by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, forming an alliance?

This cannot be happening.

After two years of player poaching, lawsuits, nasty insults from both sides and talk of Saudi Arabia's atrocious human rights violations, the vision of PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan and PIF governor Yasir Al-Rumayyan side-by-side on a CNBC set detailing how the rival leagues will combine commercial businesses and rights into a new for-profit company, and drop all lawsuits, truly was surreal.

How has that gone?

At first, we were told that the "merger" — later reframed as an "agreement" — would be finalized by Dec. 31 and the PIF would be writing a very large check (somewhere between $1 billion and $2 billion) to boost PGA Tour Enterprises.  But New Year's Eve came and went without a deal, and now, one year later, we appear no closer than we were six months ago.

And after a brief cease-fire, some members, from both sides, resumed taking shots at each other, and LIV Golf, which has headquarters in West Palm Beach, went back to poaching PGA Tour stars.

"It's messy, and it has been and it seems to get messier every week," Seth Waugh, CEO of the PGA of America, said at the PGA Championship. "I don't think the game is big enough for two tours like that, and I think we are diluting the game in a way that is not healthy.

"I hope there's urgency because I do think it's doing damage to the tour, to the game. … I just don't think it's a healthy situation right now."

Here is a timeline of the ebbs and flows of the PGA Tour and LIV Golf when it comes to a possible merger:

If you can't beat them, join them

While surprised that everything came together so quickly, Rory McIlroy said the PGA Tour’s partnership with the PIF ultimately will be good for the game. Speaking the week the agreement was announced, McIlroy said much of it has been mischaracterized and it should not be viewed as a merger with LIV Golf.

“LIV has nothing to do with this," he said. "It’s the PGA Tour, the DP World Tour and the Public Investment Fund that are basically partnering to create a new company. That’s where I was a little frustrated. All I’ve wanted to do was protect the future of the PGA Tour and protect the aspirational nature of what the PGA Tour stands for. I think this does this.

"If you look at the structure, this new company sits above everything else. Jay on top of that. Technically, anyone involved with LIV would answer to Jay. The PIF was going to keep spending money in golf. At least the PGA Tour controls how that money is spent. You’re dealing with one of the biggest sovereign wealth funds in the world. Would you rather fight against or have them as a partner?"

Greg Norman's message to staff

Although not involved in the negotiations, LIV's chief executive and commissioner Norman, who lives in Palm Beach Gardens, had a positive message for the staff. Norman, who was left out of the negotiations and not mentioned in any of the news releases associated with the agreement, told more than 100 people on a 30-minute call that LIV will see no operational changes and that work is already being done on a 2025 schedule.

“The spigot is now wide open for commercial sponsorships, blue-chip companies, TV networks," he said. "LIV is and will continue to be a standalone enterprise. Our business model will not change. We changed history and we’re not going anywhere."

Players losing trust in Monahan

The main topic of conversation at the U.S. Open at the Los Angeles Country Club was the announcement the previous week. Some players were open about expressing their anger and lack of trust in the tour and Monahan.

"I think it gets to a point where you want to have faith in management, and I want to have faith that this is the best thing for all of us, but it's clear that that's not the consensus," Jon Rahm said. "I think the general feeling is that a lot of people feel a bit of betrayal from management."

Those words were prophetic coming from a man who, six months later, became the biggest name to defect from the PGA Tour.

Agreement dissected on Capitol Hill

About a month after the agreement, drama played out on Capitol Hill with tour COO Ron Price and policy board independent director Jimmy Dunne, of North Palm Beach, testifying at a Senate investigations subcommittee hearing.

They were grilled by a bipartisan committee that was concerned about antitrust violations. Aside from politicians attempting to bully Price and Dunne or just looking for air time, one of the more interesting revelations was the PIF proposing Tiger Woods and McIlroy being granted ownership of LIV Golf franchises. This idea was shot down by the PGA Tour.

Tiger getting involved

Before joining the PGA Tour policy board on Aug. 1, Woods led a group of more than 40 players in signing a list of demands of Monahan. The move was made to reestablish control of the PGA Tour after players heard about Monahan's secretive meetings with the PIF.

Woods became the sixth player director on the policy board, giving players more say in any final decisions.

Monahan regrets agreement rollout

Speaking for the first time since taking a medical leave of absence one week after the deal was announced because of anxiety over the deal, Monahan took responsibility for the awkward rollout of the framework agreement, saying there was a lot of misinformation leading to distrust.

"That's on me," he said.

“My biggest regret was not being more patient on the night of June 5, moving to make this announcement the next day."

Norman confident about LIV's future

In October, Norman spoke publicly for the first time since the agreement. He was at LIV's final event of the season at Doral.

Norman was upbeat and confident his league was on the upswing and promised LIV was here to stay. As far as his future … when asked about Price's comment at July's Senate subcommittee hearing that Norman is "out of a job" if a deal is reached, Norman shrugged.

"I knew it wasn't true," he said. "There's so much white noise floating around out there that I actually paid zero attention to.

"Sitting in this seat today, I know every step I've made has been for the right reasons. Right reasons for the game of golf. … So I was never in any fear of anybody saying anything or any animus against me or anything like that. Because the business model works."

LIV releases most of 2024 schedule

Soon after the conclusion of the 2023 season, LIV made it official that it was moving forward without interruption. Despite the ongoing negotiations, it announced most of its 2024 schedule, which included seven domestic and seven international events.

The original schedule did not include sites for the final two events: the individual and team championships. Those later were announced as Chicago and Dallas, respectively.

Rahm proves he has a price

Six months after the framework agreement, Rahm announced on Fox News: "I have officially joined LIV Golf." He was wearing an LIV letterman's jacket.

The Spaniard and No. 3 golfer in the world clearly is LIV's biggest and most important addition since its launch, sending the message, "We are still here, we are not going anywhere." And for LIV, that was worth the reported $550 million Rahm will receive, including bonuses.

The man who once refuted all LIV rumors by saying $400 million would not change his lifestyle proved he had a price after all.

Woods stands firm on deadline

Despite reports negotiations were dragging and Dec. 31 would come and go without a deal, Woods remained optimistic, right to the end.

Speaking in December from the PNC Championship in Orlando where he teamed with his son, Charlie, Tiger insisted nothing has changed when it comes to the deadline.

"As of right now, that is our time frame and our deadline," he said. "That was set forth back in early June. And that hasn't changed."

Nothing drops on New Year's Eve

Like the ball in Times Square, the PGA Tour and PIF were hoping to drop an announcement that would put an end to golf's civil war.

The year came and went and the only announcement was that the sides were prepared to continue negotiating.

PGA Tour finds major investor in SSG

The long-awaited deal between the PGA Tour and Strategic Sports Group was announced in late January. The SSG, a collective of marquee professional sports franchise owners headed by Fenway Sports Group, is pumping $3 billion into the tour. That included an initial investment of $1.5 billion into the launch of a commercial venture, PGA Tour Enterprises.

That makes SSG the tour's major financial partner, which had some, like Woods, now hinting maybe the tour no longer needed PIF's money.

"The monies that they have come to the table with, and what we initially had agreed to in the framework agreement, those are all the same numbers," Woods said about the SSG investment.

Tyrrell Hatton follows Rahm to LIV

LIV's strong offseason continued with the long-awaited signing of England's Tyrrell Hatton . The 16th-ranked golfer in the world joined in February, just before LIV's first event of the year, in Mexico. Hatton joined Rahm's team, confirming LIV would be adding a 13th team.

Hatton's signing came after Germany's Adrian Meronk, No. 39 in the world, joined LIV.

Monahan offers little at Players

Monahan's much-anticipated state of the game address from The Players Championship in Ponte Vedra Beach in March lacked substance. The commissioner offered very little, other than confirming he recently met with Al-Rumayyan and talks are "accelerating."

While McIlroy continued to believe in Monahan's leadership and a deal being finalized — that later eroded, as we will see — Xander Schauffele was not so sure. "I would say in my book he's got a long way to go to gain the trust of the membership," Schauffele said.

And world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler placed the blame for golf's fractured state squarely on those who joined LIV.

"If the fans are upset, then look at the guys that left," Scheffler said. "We had a tour, we were all together, and the people that left are no longer here. At the end of the day, that's where the splintering comes from."

More false hope after Bahamas meeting

Members of the PGA Tour Enterprises board, including Monahan and all six player directors — Woods, Jordan Spieth, Patrick Cantlay, Adam Scott, Webb Simpson and Peter Malnati — met with Al-Rumayyan in the Bahamas soon after the Players Championship.

Monahan called the meeting "constructive." Woods said. "We're headed in the right direction."

LIV players: Deal needed to save sport

LIV golfers weighed in on the negotiations from the event at Doral with Bryson DeChambeau saying there needs to be more of a sense of urgency.

"The only answer is for us to somehow come together in some sort of terms where it makes sense and for us to be playing all again in somewhat of the same boat," DeChambeau said. "And it needs to happen fast. It's not a two-year thing. Like it needs to happen quicker rather than later just for the good of the sport. Too many people are losing interest."

LIV looking to buy golf courses

Norman revealed in May that LIV Golf has thought about owning all its golf courses with each team having a home venue on which to host an event.

"And now you can build out around that," Norman told Bloomberg News. "It’s not just a golf course. You bring in education, hospitality, real estate, merchandise, management, and all these other different opportunities that the game of golf has to deliver to a community or to a region. We are going to be doing that.”

Jimmy Dunne resigns from PGA Tour policy board

Dunne, one of the architects of the framework agreement, resigned from the tour’s policy board the week of the PGA Championship. The North Palm Beach resident and president of Seminole Golf Club said since helping negotiate the agreement, "no meaningful progress has been made towards a transaction with the PIF, I feel like my role is utterly superfluous."

Woods said the amount of work and dedication Dunne put into the board and into the PGA Tour has been "incredible."

McIlroy offered a grim outlook on the negotiations with Dunne no longer involved.

"I would say my confidence level on something getting done before last week was, you know, as low as it had been," McIlroy said. "And then with this news of Jimmy resigning and knowing the relationship he has with the other side, and how much warmth there is from the other side, it's concerning."

One year later and still no deal

A year has passed since that stunning announcement of a framework agreement and about six months since the deadline to turn that into a final deal.

And still, nothing.

But are we getting closer? According to The New York Times, possibly. Maybe?

The Times recently reported that negotiations between the PGA Tour and the PIF not only are very much alive but term sheets have been exchanged.

But it also added a deal is far from certain with the future of LIV Golf still to be decided.

And so we wait.

Grayson Murray dies at age 30 a day after withdrawing from Colonial, PGA Tour says

Grayson Murray, a two-time PGA Tour winner, died Saturday just one day after he withdrew from the Charles Schwab Challenge in Fort Worth, Texas, the PGA Tour announced in a statement.

Murray was 30 years old.

There were no immediate details released regarding manner or circumstances of his death.

“We were devastated to learn — and are heartbroken to share — that PGA TOUR player Grayson Murray passed away this morning. I am at a loss for words,” PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan said in the statement.

“The PGA TOUR is a family, and when you lose a member of your family, you are never the same,” Monahan continued. “We mourn Grayson and pray for comfort for his loved ones.”

Murray’s management company, GSE Worldwide, also confirmed his death and said it was heartbroken.

“We will hold off on commenting until we learn further details, but out heart aches for his family, his friends and all who loved him during this very difficult time,” GSE said in a statement.

Monahan said he spoke to Murray’s parents to offer condolences. During that conversation, he said, Murray’s parents “asked that we continue with tournament play.”

“They were adamant that Grayson would want us to do so,” Monahan said. “As difficult as it will be, we want to respect their wishes.”

During Saturday's television coverage of the tournament at Colonial Country Club, pro golfer Webb Simpson said he had known Murray since the latter was 8 years old.

"I knew he was going to be a great player from day one," Simpson said.

Simpson said a young Murray took the title at Simpson's inaugural Webb Simpson Challenge, an annual tournament held in Southern Pines, North Carolina.

The pair shared that history but also a swing coach who tuned their marksmanship, Simpson said.

"It was a huge shock," Simpson said upon hearing the news of Murray's death. "I just hate it."

Monahan, en route to Forth Worth, said in the PGA Tour statement that grief counselors will be available at this week’s PGA Tour and Korn Ferry Tour events.

Colonial Country Club said in a statement Saturday that Murray was a talent “loved by many.”

“The golf community is small,” the venue said. “When one hurts, we all feel it tremendously.”

Murray first hit the golf scene at age 16, and finished off his rookie season in the pros with a win at the Nationwide Children’s, earning him second place on the Korn Ferry Tour money list and full status on the PGA Tour in 2017.

He won the Barbasol Championship in 2017 at the age of 24, securing a two-year exemption through the 2019 PGA Tour season.

After struggling on the PGA Tour the next few seasons, Murray found success yet again on the Korn Ferry Tour in 2023, picking up wins at the AdventHealth Championship in Kansas City and the Simmons Bank Open outside of Nashville, Tennessee. He finished fourth on the tour and earned a spot back on the tour for the next season.

Murray, who had dealt with alcohol and mental health issues in the past, made a massive turnaround this year and won the Sony Open, hitting wedge to 3 feet for birdie on the final hole to get into a playoff and winning it with a 40-foot putt.
