Lawrence erased six shots with a 62, then won a playoff Casey had four chances to end. The sequence, the money, and where the runner-up's cheque goes.
The club is privately owned. The ground under it isn't. What the letter to Palm Beach County actually proposes, and the rent figure nobody is quoting.
Four debutants, eight returnees, one captain betting on aggression. Every player, how they qualified, and who missed out by a handful of ranking spots.
They were mid-renewal on another five years with LIV when PIF pulled out. Here's what Cho Minn Thant actually said, and the events still stuck in limbo.

Which golf clubs actually drop on Black Friday, why last year's driver isn't worse, and the one USGA check before you buy anything discounted.
Three LIV players entered at Huddersfield. One never played round three. What the rulebook says, and the part nobody has explained.
Six straight birdies, a chip-in from sand, and 36 holes without a bogey. He's two clear and one win from a record only Seve Ballesteros holds.

Bobby Jones won the 1930 Grand Slam by two strokes in each Open and led only one round of eight. Lightning, a runaway car and the real reason he quit, in his own words.
A two-time Masters winner is reported out alongside him, and two more major champions already left this cycle. Here's who'd actually be left in 2027.
A world No. 3 darts player, a World Cup-winning cricketer and the woman who holed the 2019 winning putt, on three holes at Bernardus. Here's the plan.
One 1980 Golf Digest, four old ads, and a Jack Nicklaus comeback. Persimmon woods, a 4.52-yard shaft test and balls that "beat Titleist by 12 yards." Flashback inside.
He hasn't said a word. A Spanish outlet says he's all in on LIV 2.0, and three purse figures are circulating. What's verified, and what's not.
A 24-year-old who hits it as far as anyone says distance isn't the point at 1,500 metres. Why he's right, and the rule your rangefinder can't bend.
Every one of his 30 titles, grouped by how forgettable they are. Plus the California win he told CBS he couldn't remember having.
The PGA Tour is rewriting its fan code of conduct for 2027 after a season of betting-fueled heckling. What changes, what the 5% stat admits, and what it can’t fix.

A shoulder that flared Tuesday, four over through five, a walk off the sixth tee. What happened, what it paid, and what it cost him a week later.
LIV hasn't filed yet. Tiger's plea has two names. The PGA Tour rebrand is a case change. What's confirmed this week, and what's still a report.
Five-year license suspension, $1,000 fine, and two different words for the plea depending on the outlet. What's verified, and why the wording matters.
Face angle sets about 85% of where the ball starts, and your hands set the face before you move. Count your knuckles, then read what it won't fix.
He started Sunday three behind, made two bogeys all weekend, and ended a Tiger record from 2000. The stat explaining it isn't the one being quoted.
A 62 on the front, 70 on the back. Where 132 sits against real handicap data, and the local rule that would have saved him a dozen shots.
He made three cuts in eight PGA Tour starts last year. Now he has two live routes to a 2027 card before turning 20. Here's where he stands.
Three outlets give three different figures for what he's owed. The bigger question is where a player ranks when the bankruptcy queue forms.
He shot 79-79 and couldn't concentrate on the back nine. Two months later he finished fourth in a major. What that gap teaches about coming back.
The investor won't commit until players sign. Players won't sign for cents on the dollar. That standoff is why Chapter 11 is now the likeliest exit.
The driver with the most PGA Tour wins in 2026 costs $449, less than some new fairway woods. What's discounted now, and the one check before you buy.
His 2026 rates as the 12th-best statistical season in 43 years, and eight above it belong to Tiger Woods. What the number does and doesn't say.
A 69 on Sunday for his best result since last August, and a Tuesday night at Comerica watching his son pitch. The week nobody put on a highlight reel.
He passed Hovland for good with a birdie at the 16th. What goes into that club decision, and the rule stopping your rangefinder doing it for you.
He led the field in putting by six strokes and still said his ceiling was nowhere close. The misses that cost him, and the coach he's gone back to.
He set the tournament's 36-hole scoring record, led by two, then shot 74. Why a T3 is still the best result of his senior career, and what it buys him.
Chapter 11 isn't liquidation. It's the vehicle for handing the league to players at about a third of the purses. What's verified, what isn't.
In April he didn't recognise Scheffler's swing. In August he called him miles ahead. Both takes were right, and the record proves it.
Players as majority owners, five continents, a billion homes. Every claim checked against what LIV actually did in 2026, including the purse cut.
He'd just won $10 million, a second FedEx Cup, and passed Tiger Woods on the all-time money list. Then he spent his last answers of the year talking about wind and about travelling with his kids.
Take a fraction now and join a smaller league, or hold out and queue as an unsecured creditor. What the offers say, and who's waiting on the answer.
A Chapter 11 filing isn't the league shutting down. It's the vehicle for handing it to the players. What's verified, what isn't, and who gets paid last.
Most of the famous foot slide happens after the ball has gone. What's actually producing 1.694 strokes gained tee to green is duller and copyable.
Asked if Scheffler amazes him, the man he'd just lost to said no. His actual explanation is duller and far more useful than any mental-game theory.
Scheffler took $10M, seven men split $11.95M, and $355,000 went nowhere. Full table, plus the figure two official pages disagree on.
Scheffler needs solo 13th, McIlroy needs solo 4th. One outlet already declared it done a week ago. Here's what's actually verified and what isn't.
Hybrid use in the PGA Tour top 100 fell from 32% to 13%. On the LPGA it's 70%. The 15 mph gap explains both, and one man won a major with one.
He shot 71 on Sunday, made three bogeys, and won by two. What the full broadcast shows that the highlight reel cuts, and the trophy he didn't take home.
The whole draw shifted about an hour earlier and the pairings were rebuilt. Full Round 4 tee sheet, TV windows, and the mismatch nobody has flagged.
He eagled the first, made five birdies, dropped nothing, and leads by two. But the number he's actually chasing isn't first place. Here's what it is.
Six putts from seven feet or longer built it. Scheffler, Scott, Åberg and Gotterup are three back, McIlroy shot 63, and last place is 3 under.
Every winner from the Sony Open to the BMW, the three men who won three times, and why the best player in the world isn't one of them.
Nineteen players began Saturday within five shots and it ended with a one-shot lead. Full Round 3 draw, results, and the Sunday sheet nobody agrees on.
Hovland leads by one at 15 under, Scheffler's three back, McIlroy shot 63. Every number that matters before the final round of the season.
Every pairing from 11:55 a.m. to the 2:55 final group, plus TV times, what Hovland's lead is worth, and the rule that could still cost somebody two shots.
He's the seventh U.S. president in the role and the second to do it twice. What the job actually involves, and the dates two outlets can't agree on.
Four days is the default, not the rule. Three-day tours, no-cut fields, weather Mondays, and the 2028 change that stretches one event to two weeks.
The CEO says an investor signed. Bloomberg says it's a loan. Four vendors are suing. Here's what's actually confirmed, and the September date that decides it.
He fell from top 10 in putting to outside the top 100, benched his gamer on a Monday, then gained four strokes on the greens. What you can copy here.
He hit 12 of 14 fairways and told reporters he can't explain it. What Hovland's 66 really proves, who's stacked behind him, and the stat nobody checked.
Two over through four, and Scheffler still shot 67. Who else moved at East Lake, who buried himself, and the number that says this isn't over.
Every spot from $10 million down to $355,000, plus the reason two different payout tables are circulating and which one the Tour actually publishes.
He didn't leave LIV. LIV dropped him. Here is the real date his ban ended, where he tees it up this week, and the one thing nobody can confirm yet.
