This weekend at the Ocean Course at Kiawah Island in South George will host the PGA Championship, the final Major of the PGA tour schedule.

The last real main event hosted at the Ocean Course was the 1991 Ryder Cup dubbed the ‘War by the Shore’. Consequently, the field is evened out a bit for this course as few players have spent much time on it.

The Ocean Course becomes the longest track in major championship history as it can be stretched out to 7,676 yards. Numerous tees are on […]

by PlayNow Sports in golf, more sports

The storms that rolled into the northeast threatened the Greenbrier Classic after knocking down up to 80 trees at the Old White TPC, but play will go on as usual.

The Old White TPC, built in 1914, is the oldest course to host a PGA Tour event. The Greenbrier was on the brink of bankruptcy recently but renovations that took place between 2002 and 2006 helped attract the tour and the rest is history.

Players will be playing to a par 70 on a rather short course […]
