Click:AOC If pars are boring then Patrick Reed’s back nine in the third round of the WGC-HSBC Champions was anything but. Reed began play on Saturday in Shanghai trailing Tony Finau by three strokes, and promptly bogeyed his opening hole. He added a birdie at the second and a bogey at the ninth to turn […]

As frustrating as his double bogey-bogey finish must have been Saturday, Justin Rose can take solace in the fact that he knows how to come from behind in Shanghai. The defending champion will enter Sunday just three shots off the lead held by Tony Finau. That’s five shots closer than last year, when he stunned Dustin Johnson […]

Wei-Ling Hsu is looking to follow the footsteps of a Taiwanese idol Sunday. Hsu will take a share of the lead into the final round of the Swinging Skirts LPGA Taiwan Championship. She’ll do so inspired by memories of when she was a junior and followed Yani Tseng around this championship when Tseng was world […]

Tony Finau is 18 holes from the biggest win of his promising career. He’s so close he can taste it – right? “No,” he answered. “There’s 18 holes to play. I know there’s a world-class field. I have to keep my head down for 18 more holes and keep doing my thing. You know, I didn’t […]

Aside from a second-round 64, it was a mostly forgettable WGC-HSBC Champions for Thomas Pieters, as he never shot better than 74 in any of his other three rounds on his way to a tie for 18th. But there was one good moment on Sunday, when he aced the 197-yard, par-3 12th hole in the final […]

They aren’t quite halfway through the LPGA’s Q-Series, but collegians look poised to steal the show. Through three rounds at Pinehurst No. 6, five collegians are among the top 10 in the new final stage of the LPGA’s qualifying tournament. Jaclyn Lee, a senior at Ohio State, shot 2-under-par 70 Saturday to position herself in […]

Xander Schauffele captured his third career PGA Tour title on Sunday, winning the WGC-HSBC Champions in a playoff over Tony Finau. He did so by making birdie on his final three holes, including sudden death. Trailing Finau by one, Schauffele made birdie on the par-3 17th, the most difficult hole on the course. He then […]

When Xander Schauffele hit his second shot to the par-5 18th, with the WGC-HSBC Champions title hanging in the balance, he anxiously hoped it would STOP. And, stop it did, just behind the putting surface, just short of a severely shaved bank that runs into the water hazard. Justin Rose’s third shot into No. 18 showed how […]
