The PGA Tour Champions' PURE Insurance Championship shows off golf's benevolent side by involving 78 First Tee participants playing alongside the pros

Costco restocked its shelves with its budgeted golf ball in recent weeks, but customers noticed flaws in the product

Bill Freakin' Murray doesn't let anything get between him and a round of golf. Not age, not weather, not vermin, not a bucket hat shortage. Hell, not even a zombie apocalypse can stop him…
But you know what they say, the proof is in the puddin', and thankfully they have all kinds of puddin'—black puddin', bread puddin', banana puddin'—over in Scotland, where Murray is spending his week hacking it around the Home of Golf as part of the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship's celebrity team event. Murray showed up for his practice round on Tuesday with a bum wing, but not willing to let his stunt double have all the fun, he buckled down and played with one arm, much to the delight of the Scottish galleries, many of whom took a sick day just to head down to the course and shout “WHAT AN INCREDIBLE CINDERELLA STORY” at Murray from across the fairway.
P.S. Love the ol' dress-tie-as-a-sling look. The man really is smoother than a Gibson martini.

Golf Digest Podcast: Sebastian Munoz on his breakthrough PGA Tour win, the rise of Latin American golf, and that surprisingly heavy rooster trophy.

The muscles responsible for good posture—and a functional golf swing—can atrophy when you sit too long. Here's how to fix them

We know what you're thinking. Good God, another Adam Sandler movie. Can't this guy just ride off into the sunset on a stallion made of money already? Hasn't he terrorized the medium of film enough? Despite our hardwired soft spot for Happy Gilmore, we can't you blame you either. The man has spent the better part of the 21st century defecating on film reels (Don't Mess With the Zoltan, Grown Ups, Grown Ups 2, The Ridiculous 6) for a living. But having said all that, his latest comeback, Uncut Gems, looks different. Very different.

Starring Sandler in a dramatic turn as a New York jeweler to the rich and famous who gets in over his head with, you guessed it, a little sports gambling habit, Uncut Gems has stirred up some serious buzz on the festival circuit. Lauded indie studio A24 has also been on an absolute heater lately and we know Sandler has the chops for this stuff when properly applied (see: Punch Drunk Lo..

Column: Tennessee teenager, adopted from orphanage in China, makes it to Pebble Beach to play with the pros

Small-town America is the hub for golf-ball manufacturing—and the companies have become part of the fabric of each of those towns

The 2019 Boston Red Sox are dead as a doornail. Done. Finished. They haven't played in a truly meaningful game since August, and their 2018 World Series win is now a distant memory, and will only become more distant when the 2019 champion is crowned. They fired Dave Dombrowski, the bullpen embarrassed itself throughout the year, and they're stuck with David Price until 2022 and Chris Sale until 2024. Their farm system? According to everything you read, it stinks. As a New York Yankee fan, you really just hate to see it. It would have been nice to have them in the playoffs, but, alas, they ain't invited.
At least the Sox fans still have Mookie Betts, who won the AL MVP a season ago and played a massive role in helping Boston win its ninth ring. Betts, by his standards, had a down year in 2019, though it was impossible to live up to the season he had in 2018. He still made the All Star team, still has six games left to reach the 30 homer mark for a second straight year (he..
