Depending on an assortment of factors, playing golf right now is either weird, discouraged, or restricted outright. This is not the place to debate that reality. But since your home is believed to be safer, and your home is presumably not a golf course, it’s worth asking how one can experience some semblance of golf while confined there.
The answer, of course, depends on the space at your disposal—yard or no yard, ceiling height, the likelihood of clipping a toddler with your backswing. We get it. Of all the things to decry during this crisis, your inability to groove knockdown 6-irons probably doesn’t belong at the top of the list. What is important, however, is maintaining one’s sanity during an incredibly stressful time. A little bit of golf is an outlet. It helps open up your space, shakes us out of the debilitating scroll-refresh cycle, and allows us to envision a future state in which real golf is back to being a thing.

Two golf companies are doing their part to get masks to people who need them during the coronavirus outbreak.

It's Day 7 of the big coronavirus quarantine, and everyone is bored. You. Me. Tony Finau. Even the World's GOAT, Lionel Messi, is climbing the proverbial (and possibly literal) walls. On Thursday, the Barcelona forward posted a video of him trying the ol' Toilet Paper Challenge—the post-Covid-19 world's answer to the bottle cap challenge—to his IG Story, and as you probably already guessed, he immediately lapped all contenders in the blink of an eye.

Stateside, when we say “GOAT,” we mean Jordan, Tiger, and Brady. But across most of the sports-obsessed globe, that acronym answers to only one man: Lionel Messi. Scorer of 697 career goals and winner of 10 La Liga titles by age 32, Messi has racked up unthinkable numbers all while competing against fellow GOAT contender Cristiano Ronaldo in his prime. Imagine if Jack and Tiger played at the same time and we're forced to split the spoils. That's the ..

A day after Rickie Fowler and Justin Thomas shared swings and results of a left-handed competition, Brooks Koepka showed his fellow PGA Tour pros who is boss when it comes to switch-hitting on the course. Or rather, in a hitting bay. Turns out Koepka is actually practicing during this unexpected hiatus in the golf schedule.
