A golf-club press.
Trending golf, fashion, culture — from the clubhouse,
four in the afternoon, every week.
Golf is fashion. Also: music, architecture, landscape, social theatre.
We cover the bits the broadcasters miss — the kit, the courses, the characters, the culture. Long reads on Sunday, fit checks on Friday, hot takes whenever they need to be said.
Ryan Fox wins the Open. New Zealand’s first in 63 years.
Ryan Fox. Champion Golfer of the Year.
A twelve-foot birdie on the 72nd hole, four birdies in his last six, and a Saturday 62 that changed everything. Fox pips Cameron Young by one as Sam Burns’ lead slips away. The first New Zealand major champion since Bob Charles in 1963.

Read the preview →Four majors. Four different champions.
Wyndham Clark. Wire-to-wire.
He held a six-stroke lead entering Sunday. He lost most of it. He held onto the last stroke. Ninth player in US Open history to lead every round, against a gallery singing happy birthday to Scheffler. This is how he did it.

A closing 65. A 68-foot birdie at the par-3 17th. A three-stroke margin. Aaron Rai is the first Englishman to lift the Wanamaker Trophy since Jim Barnes in 1919.

Long reads, written like they matter.
The back nine of the season.
The last major is played, the Claret Jug is handed over, and golf enters its strangest stretch — the long, quiet, manufactured drama of the playoffs. In praise of the season’s melancholy back nine.
Read essay → PGA Tour · ProfileSi Woo Kim.
The youngest Players champion in history — 21 when he won at Sawgrass — and a top-six finisher at Royal Birkdale. One of the cornerstones of a golden era of Korean golf. The full profile.
Read profile →Where the playoffs draw first blood.
No history, no borrowed grandeur — just water, Bermuda and one of the meanest par 3s on tour. The Memphis course built to separate the top 70 from the top 50. A guide to the FedEx St. Jude host.

The Open just gave us a masterclass in dressing for weather. On lambswool, the knitted vest, layering, and the quiet, unbranded elegance of a proper links wardrobe.

Three of golf’s four majors now ask the same question. The Open asks a different one — wind, ground, invention, acceptance — and that is why it is the only one that still reveals who can actually play.
Read → The Board · Scottish OpenTom Kim wins at The Renaissance.
A bogey-free closing 64 ends a three-year drought and sends the prodigy to Royal Birkdale as the last man standing on links turf. The tune-up win that reset his season, one week before the Open.
