@GolfweekNichols Congrats, Lottie!! Keep up the great playing!!

Lottie Woad moved up five spots in the Rolex Rankings to No. 5 in the world after her victory in Cincinnati.

Simply the BEST!! Wish Wilson had had a speaker like this.

@PackWGolf Congrats, Vani!!

So proud of our girl Vany Simont for graduating this weekend 👩‍🎓

@GolfweekNichols @uswomensopen WOW!!!

There was a moment during @uswomensopen media day at Riviera when Mike Whan listed the next 10 venues for the championship and said you could put it up against any event in the world. He's right. 2027 Inverness 2028 Oakmont 2029 Pinehurst No. 2 2030 Interlachen 2031 Oakland Hills 2032 LACC 2033 Chicago Golf Club 2034 Merion Golf Club 2035 Pebble Beach 2036 Shinnecock

@GolfweekNichols @uswomensopen That is terrific!!

“One of my original sponsors was Dean Martin.” The @uswomensopen heads to Riviera for the first time in June. Five-time major winner Amy Alcott grew up next to the club and built her game sneaking on the practice fairway between the first and second holes. This five-minute history lesson from Amy, including the Hollywood celebrities who made an impact on her, is worth your time!

@GolfweekNichols to be young again!!

Texas junior Farah O’Keefe took a share of low amateur honors at the Chevron on Sunday in Houston. Today she has a 36-hole U.S. Women’s Open qualifier in Florida. O’Keefe had an 830 pm flight out of Houston Sunday night. Got in around midnight. Drove to Airbnb in New Smyrna Beach, crashed and then teed it up at at 830 this morning for a 36-hole qualifier. She’s 1 under thru 9 holes.

@LottieWoad @Chevron_Golf @Titleist @FMGlobal @KPMGSports Congrats to you!! Keep up the great playing!!

Nice start to major szn with a T7 @Chevron_Golf 🤠 Thank you to everyone who came out to support this week! #mudballs

Elon Musk just described the most sophisticated theft operation in American history. Not a heist. A system. Your tax dollars leave Washington. They enter a non-governmental organization. The government. With different letterhead. Musk: “Obviously if it’s a government-funded non-governmental organization, it’s just the government.” They cross a border. American law stops following them. They pass through three more entities in three more countries. They come home. Different pocket. Clean hands. Perfect crime. Musk: “The government can send money to an NGO that is then no longer governed by the laws of the United States.” Now run the math. Congressional salary. $200,000. Average net worth of a longtime member of Congress. North of $20 million. Musk: “There are a lot of strangely wealthy members of Congress. I just can’t connect the dots of how they got $20 million earning $200,000 a year. Nobody can explain that.” Nobody is supposed to. This machine ran untouched for decades for one reason. Human limitation. A forensic team cannot trace ten thousand wire transfers across fifty global jurisdictions at once. The corruption does not hide in darkness. It hides in volume. They built a labyrinth so deliberately complex that the sheer weight of it collapses every investigation before it starts. Paper buries paper. Bureaucracy absorbs inquiry. The entire architecture was engineered to exhaust you. Then artificial intelligence arrived. AI does not get tired. It cannot be bought. It does not lose the thread at wire transfer 4,000. You give it the entire global ledger. It maps every node, every transfer, every shell entity, every offshore NGO across every jurisdiction. Not in weeks. In hours. It finds the signal inside the noise. It flags the pattern. It traces a dollar from a D.C. appropriation to a Cayman shell to a congressional portfolio in the time it takes a human auditor to find his parking spot. The labyrinth was built to defeat human eyes. It is defenseless against a machine that reads the entire maze at once. This is why the establishment is not just annoyed by DOGE. They are terrified. Musk: “We’re going to try to figure it out and stop it.” He did not arrive in Washington to trim budgets. He arrived with supercomputing, AI audit systems, and a mandate to map the full financial architecture of the federal government. For the first time in history, the complexity that protected the corruption is the very thing that will expose it. Every shell entity is a signature. Every routing pattern is a fingerprint. Every congressman who walked in earning $200,000 and walked out worth $20 million is now a variable in an equation that will be solved. The swamp was never impenetrable. It was just too big for human hands. It was never built for this.

Congratulations to Krista Junkkari on being named the 2026 Henry Miller Award recipient! 🏆🌺 This honor recognizes an individual who truly elevates the game both on and off the course—embodying excellence, leadership, and passion.

@GolfweekNichols She is going to be one of the best!! Things happen in golf and I think she handled it pretty well, overall. She will learn from this and watch out world!! Asterisk has it all, and a couple more years of experience and watch out!

Asterisk Talley gets pep talk from Bryson DeChambeau after Augusta collapse “She’s going to be one of the best players in the world one day and she knows it. I told her the most important thing is how you handle yourself, and how you showcase yourself to inspire others.” – Bryson DeChambeau On Saturday at Augusta National, Asterisk Talley’s misfortune revealed her character — and it’s as strong as her golf game. golfweek.usatoday.com/story/sports/g…

@GolfweekNichols That is absolutely pathetic!! Why isn't the new commissioner going bonkers?

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)

Mimi Rhodes has all the makings of a future⭐️on the LPGA. Thoroughly enjoyed my recent chat with Rhodes, who is making her LPGA rookie debut this week in Singapore. Inspired by her late grandmother, who made TWO aces in one round! Clutch gene. Engaging personality. Huge potential for 2026 Solheim Cup. golfweek.usatoday.com/story/sports/g…
