Bryson DeChambeau’s brilliant bunker shot at 18 and winning putt that followed capped off a remarkable week at Pinehurst No. His second U.S. Open win comes at age 30, another rare accomplishment. Bryson must get up and down from the bunker to win the U.S. Open. This is arguably the most painful in the disappointing decade-long run of major championship Sundays for Rory McIlroy. DeChambeau will try to become the first player since Woods in 2000 to win The Open and U.S. Open in the same season.

CNN —Cristóbal del Solar wrote his name into the history books on Thursday, as the Chilean golfer shot a 13-under 57 at the Astara Golf Championship to set the new record for the lowest round ever shot at a PGA Tour-sanctioned event. Del Solar’s bogey-free feat bests the previous record set by Germany’s Stephan Jaeger and “Mr. “Incredible, man,” del Solar told reporters. “Hopefully, I’ll celebrate Sunday as well,” del Solar added.

That's why his remarkable, record-setting year on the PGA Tour Champions has Stricker thinking about playing more on the PGA Tour next year. “I don't know if it will work,” Stricker said at the Constellation Furyk & Friends. He already has set the PGA Tour Champions earnings record — currently $3,986,063 — and he is a lock to become the first senior player to surpass $4 million in a year. The courses on the PGA Tour Champions aren't as long and the competition isn't nearly as strong. “It's just a great time to be part of the PGA Tour,” he said.

The idea behind the Ryder Cup task force that was formed after the 2014 matches was to build some continuity among the U.S. teams. He had been an assistant four times in the Presidents Cup and Ryder Cup. The key is to see whom Furyk, the 2018 Ryder Cup captain and now the Presidents Cup captain for 2024 in Montreal, selects as his assistants for next year. Former PGA champion David Toms was overlooked as a Ryder Cup captain, just like another PGA champion, Larry Nelson, was before him. DIVOTSRickie Fowler is one of four Americans to have been on a losing Ryder Cup team in Europe at least four times.

"The Ryder Cup represents true sport. His U.S. counterpart Zach Johnson said: "When it comes to the dollar sign, I don't mean to sound cliched, but the Ryder Cup is about more than any of that. "I would say if there's anything that deals with money, there are guys that would pay to play in this. The PGA of America also diverts 20 percent of Ryder Cup media rights fees to their players’ deferred compensation plans. On the European side, DP World Tour said some of the Ryder Cup profits were put towards developing grassroots golf projects around the continent, with input from past and present players.

THE WOODLANDS, Texas — Just past a Dairy Queen near Houston last month, Steven Alker’s new status was aloft: His name and face were on a lamppost banner. Championship tee box as the man who surged from nearly-never-in-first to toast of the PGA Tour Champions, as the senior circuit is known. He is not exactly the betting favorite, not in a field largely headlined by men in their 20s and 30s. He knows he may not even make the cut and finish the tournament, where a victory would make Alker, 51, the oldest major champion in history. But Alker has been defying the clock that has often been the etiology of agony for professional athletes.

Mandatory Credit: Allan Henry-USA TODAY SportsMay 8 (Reuters) - United States Ryder Cup captain Zach Johnson, looking for leadership and experience, named Jim Furyk as one of his vice captains on Monday for this year's event in Italy. Furyk boasts a wealth of Ryder Cup experience having played in the biennial competition between the United States and Europe in nine consecutive editions from 1997 while serving as captain in 2018 and vice captain in 2016 and 2021. Johnson previously appointed former Ryder Cup captains Steve Stricker and Davis Love III as vice captains. "I've been involved in the Ryder Cup since 1997, and my passion for this event is unmatched," said Furyk, who last week was named U.S. team captain for the 2024 Presidents Cup. The 2023 Ryder Cup will be played from Sept. 29-Oct. 1 at Marco Simone Golf & Country Club in Rome.
May 2 (Reuters) - Jim Furyk, a 17-times winner on the PGA Tour, was named on Tuesday as the U.S. team captain for the 2024 Presidents Cup in Montreal. Furyk, who guided the United States as captain at the 2018 Ryder Cup won by Europe, made the most recent of his seven Presidents Cup appearances in 2011 at Royal Melbourne and holds a 20-10-3 all-time record. In addition to experience in the event, Furyk also served as a Presidents Cup captain's assistant twice, for Jay Haas in 2015 and Steve Stricker in 2017. Team for the 2024 Presidents Cup is truly an honor that I am humbled and excited to accept," said Furyk. Royal Montreal is the oldest golf club in North America and in addition to hosting the Presidents Cup in 2017 also held the Canadian Open on 10 occasions, most recently in 2014.
Europe's home dominance improved to six consecutive Ryder Cup victories following with their 2018 win outside Paris where twice major champion Johnson served as one of Jim Furyk's vice captains. The United States have not won a Ryder Cup on foreign soil since 1993 but from Johnson's perspective there is not much more they could have done at Le Golf National four yeas ago. "The system for Team USA is really, really good right now," said Johnson. The next Ryder Cup will be played from Sept. 29-Oct. 1, 2023 at Marco Simone Golf & Country Club in Rome, Italy. "Rome's going to be a completely different team with completely different players with completely different leadership.
