*taps mic* is this thing on?

How'd NBC miss the defining moment of a tournament they broadcast at Bay Hill? And why?

I looked into the heart of golf's commercial problem — which goes much deeper than an honest mistake golf.com/news/nbc-mis...

He is absolutely a HOFer. The most clutch quarterback of the last 25 years. Architect of two Super Bowl winning drives against the GOAT.

Stupid discourse about “first-ballot.” It’s about the resume, and he has it.

Pretty epic stuff for the PGA Tour's Richy Werenski. SEVEN shots outside of the cutline with 10 holes to play on Friday in Bermuda.

Makes 7 birdies, including a last-hole chip-in, to make the cut in a downpour. Then shoots a bogey-free 65 on Saturday to move into position for a Top-25 finish!
