Rory McIlroy shares video of him hitting golf balls for first time since quarantine, is still really good at golf
Since the Coronavirus pandemic put the PGA Tour season on halt last month, we've heard a lot about Rory McIlroy's Peloton prowess. But when it came time for the four-time major champ to finally dust off his clubs while under quarantine to hit a few golf balls, well, the process was just like riding a bike as well.

McIlroy shared a couple videos on Tuesday of him practicing for the first time since we last saw him at the Players Championship in March. And in what should be mid-season, that flowing, powerful swing looked like it was still in mid-season form for the PGA Tour's planned June restart. Have a look:

FacebookPinterestMan, is that a sight for sore eyes.
McIlroy's timeline of “nearly 7 weeks” seems to indicate it's the first time he's hit balls since an opening 72 at TPC Sawgrass on March 12. But the World No. 1 was happy to repor..
Charles Barkley adds the latest legendary golf story to Michael Jordan’s resume on ‘Coffee with Cal’
There's no shortage of legendary Michael Jordan stories making the rounds as “The Last Dance” continues to capture America's attention, nor should there be. Not surprisingly, our favorite MJ stories involve golf, and just when you think you've heard them all, Charles Barkley tells another that could be in the conversation for “Mount Rushmore of MJ golf stories,” a thing we just made up.

The Chuckster told the tale on “Coffee with Cal,” a virtual interview show with University of Kentucky head coach John Calipari, created specifically for these crazy quarantine times. Prior to the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona, Barkley, Jordan and the rest of the “Dream Team” first had to play in the Tournament of the Americas, a qualifying tournament in Portland consisting of 10 teams competing for four spots allocated for the Americas (North and South, the Caribbean and Central America) in the Summer Games. It w..
Adam Scott is front-runner for quarantine MVP after this act of kindness

What if golf had “Jordan rules” ?
We know, we know, another “The Last Dance,” Michael Jordan-related post. What do you want from us? There's simply nothing else right now.
At least this time, we're taking a different approach. Rather than rehashing something that occurred during episodes three and four Sunday night (as fun as it is), we came up with our own spin on the “Jordan Rules,” golf style. What are the “Jordan Rules,” you ask? Ok, we'll rehash that:

One key one left out here was that if Jordan looks to get airborne, don't let him. Basically, put him on the ground. The rules were so effective that the Detroit Pistons were able to beat the Chicago Bulls in a playoff series three straight times, forcing Jordan to completely change his offseason routine and bulk up to deliver the punishment rather than take it.
Physically punishing your opponent is not something you can get away with on the golf course, but there are plenty of ways to get..
Florida golfer Axel Monssoh gets raves for his skill, work ethic and attitude. Did we mention he’s only 8?
Axel Monssoh showed a love for golf at very young age, and at 8 he has won several local and national age-group titles. But how young is too young to set expectations?
Hey golfers, let’s not screw this up
As one of the few widespread permitted activities, golf represents a kind of litmus test for how to function during this surreal time.
