Hard to believe golf media has "evolved" from Dan Jenkins and Peter Dobereiner, serious talents with serious purpose, to these two half-witted inadequates. Blame the PGA Tour, sponsors like TM and adidas, and the players, who choose obsequiousness over honesty.

@NUCLRGOLF @RiggsBarstool Yea? No one knows what happened so great jo.....wait what? It's all over the media. How could that happen?

🚨🐅🚔 #WATCH — Fore Play Podcast star, @RiggsBarstool on Tiger Woods DUI arrest: “You think I told our team to not post about Tiger Woods DUI and to protect him, you’re goddamn right I did…”

Tiger Woods deserves empathy, but needs to show responsibility, too golfweek.usatoday.com/story/sports/g… via @golfweek

The LPGA fumbled the ball today by not covering Lydia Ko’s run at the 2nd ever 59. @GolfweekNichols called them out, rightfully so. And although it still sucks, this is a great response from Chad Coleman, new Chief Marketing officer. No BS, no excuses, just a promise they will try to get better.

There aren’t many opportunities for the LPGA to capture new fans. When one of the best players to ever play the game has the chance to do something extraordinary, the tour must abandon whatever else is going on and capitalize. That didn’t happen today. Lydia Ko was 10 under through 15 holes, which means she had to birdie the last three to become only the second player in LPGA history to shoot 59.  The LPGA was not on TV at the time and was not streaming. The tour did nothing to let fans know this was going on. Didn’t post on X. Didn’t send a scoring link or a photo.  I actually tagged the LPGA on X asking for updates! Send someone out to let us know what’s going on! Post videos in the moment from a phone! At the very least alert fans of the moment. There was no lead-up to what could’ve been an historic day on the LPGA. No building of suspense. Why isn’t the LPGA waving its hands saying, “Over here! Look at us!” It’s Opening Day for MLB and March Madness. The LPGA needs something special to break through and Lydia was delivering it! To the tour’s credit, they did send along a Zoom link so a couple of us could get on and ask Lydia questions. Two national reporters and two LPGA staffers asked Ko about her round. With so little media coverage – both on the ground and away –  the LPGA must get better at telling the story in real time to drive an audience. The tour’s first mention of Ko on X came after her round. They posted a scorecard that required a magnifying glass to see that she’d shot 60. Two hours later, there’s one video clip of Ko’s putt missing on the seventh, and that’s it as far as action from the day. No video clips from her presser. A grand total of three tweets and one Instagram post. It has to get better and not by inches … by miles. (📸 Getty Images)

@lauraabdn @ScottWisely5xo Did ye? Aye?

@ScottWisely5xo I heard 5-0 Dundee Simon Murray hatrick

Anyone any idea what the score was with the friendly against Dundee yesterday? Reading that it was 3-0 the dons supposedly, which I’m finding veeeeeery hard to believe

@lad_golf But has a talent to back up any ego. However didn't see the ego part in this clip.

If you’re in any doubt that Rory has a massive ego…

@diannenp @AJEnglish We have correspondents in Iran who also contributed to our coverage. This was never meant to cover all sides, just the American angle

@AJEnglish @AlanFisher So what's the truth here? This is a one sided report based on what TRUMP says. Does Iran confirm this to be true?

US President Donald Trump held a cabinet meeting where he discussed the US-Israeli war on Iran with senior officials. Al Jazeera's @AlanFisher explains the key takeaways.

They’re not even subtle.

During the war with Iran - many news organisations have a presence in Israel but not Iran. As with Gaza, it raises questions about framing and context.

It's the law that even if you are Scottish you must say "There's been a murder" in an even stronger Scottish accent. #thankstaggart

@rainbike10 @Luke_Elvy @RandA And First tee. It was meant to read as two

@AlanFisher @Luke_Elvy @RandA The first Tee is not an R&A initiative.

I’m never acknowledging another person who says LIV Golf is meaningless. The League is doing more to grow the game globally than anything or anyone else right now & all your hate towards it won’t change that fact. Change is happening in real time.

@atrupar Of course he did.. edition.cnn.com/2025/10/06/pol…

Startling moment even by Trump’s standards, egging Speaker Mike Johnson on to talk about GOP Rep. Neal Dunn’s health diagnosis. Johnson hedges a bit and Trump interjects that Dunn was told he’d be dead by June. Johnson: Ok, that wasn’t public.
