Jordan Spieth’s Chances of Joining Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods in Elite List Revived After a Promising Career Update
“I don’t enjoy the way it feels waking up, and if it’s every day, it’s O.K. by the time I play, but it’s not ideal,” Jordan Spieth shared right before teeing up at the Cognizant Classic. Of course, that wasn’t the kind of news fans were expecting from the golfer just before his fourth start of the season. But if you assumed Spieth would let his injury sideline him, well, then you don’t really know him yet.

Though he couldn’t quite clinch the win to end his nearly three-year drought, Spieth still put on an impressive show. He finished T9, carding 68 in 14 under par—a solid performance that hinted at something bigger brewing beneath the surface. And now, he’s got some big updates for his fans. Let’s just say, this time, Spieth sounds more optimistic than ever.

Spieth’s career, a few years back, tumbled to 91st or 92nd in the world, unreal for a three-time major champ. But if there’s one thing he does best, it’s fighting his way back to the top. Comparing his current state to his struggles back then, Spieth made one thing clear: this time, it’s different. “I’m in a way better head space now,” he said. “I feel like I’m more capable of handling dips better than back then.”

Which major championship does Jordan Spieth need to win to complete the career Grand Slam?

Comparing his current state to his struggles back then, Spieth made one thing clear: this time, it’s different. “I’m in a way better head space now,” he said. “I feel like I’m more capable of handling dips better than back then.” Back in 2019, Spieth’s putting was the only thing keeping him afloat. “I figured something out with my putting, and it was my best putting year I’ve ever had. But I couldn’t hit it on planet Earth,” he admitted. Even when he was in contention at the PGA Championship that year, he knew deep down that he didn’t truly have a shot at winning. Now, though? The story is different.

“I’m on the right track back. I’m progressing, and I know that I’m on the right track. I’m not searching for answers. That’s a big difference,” Spieth explained. He compared his journey to putting in reps at the gym—saying that if he needed 10,000 reps to get back to form, he might actually need 20,000 because he had been off for so long. But the good news? “I’m already 15,000 That confidence is what makes this comeback different. No more uncertainty, no more guessing. Spieth knows what he does well, he knows how to get back to doing it, and he’s well on his way.

What’s next for Jordan Spieth?

Since his last win at the 2022 RBC Heritage, Jordan Spieth has been eager to find his way back to the winner’s circle. And while the ultimate goal remains a return to dominance on the PGA Tour, there’s an even bigger milestone within reach—one that only a handful of legends have achieved.

Jack Nicklaus. Tiger Woods. Ben Hogan. Gary Player. Jason Day. That’s the list of players who have completed the career Grand Slam. And Jordan Spieth? He’s just one win away from joining them. The missing piece? The PGA Championship. Ironically, back in 2019, despite his struggles, he found himself in contention for that very title. Had he pulled off the win, he would’ve already secured his spot in golf’s most elite club. But as Spieth himself admitted, he wasn’t quite ready back then.

Now, things are different—and his recent performances prove it. After a slow start to the season at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am (T69), Spieth quickly bounced back with a T4 finish at the WM Phoenix Open, reminding everyone of just how dangerous he can be. While he missed the cut at the Genesis Invitational, he responded with a strong T9 finish at the Cognizant Classic, where he showed flashes of his best form. The trend is clear—Spieth is steadily finding his rhythm again, putting himself in contention more often, and fine-tuning his game at just the right time. And with the 2025 PGA Championship approaching, he’s giving fans every reason to believe that his long-awaited Grand Slam moment might not be far away.

The confidence is back. The knowledge is there. The pieces are falling into place. And if Jordan Spieth keeps progressing the way he believes he is, then it’s only a matter of time before he gets another shot at history.

Rickie Fowler’s Shocked Reaction Revealed as Scottie Scheffler’s Agitated State Post-Arrest Revisited in Netflix Series

Imagine you going about your merry day, getting ready for the second round of a major event. Scottie Scheffler had already come off a win in the 2024 Masters Tournament a month ago. He was ready to battle for the PGA Championship. He had an incredible first round and is going to challenge Xander Schauffele for the top spot in the remaining days. Then out of nowhere, reports come in that the world’s no. 1 golfer has been arrested! That would be absurd to hear, wouldn’t it?

Well, if you were one of those fans who first thought that the headlines were fake, then you weren’t the first ones. As the officer in charge stated, “He’s charged with assault of a police officer, criminal mischief, reckless driving, and disregarding signals from an officer directing traffic”. As the third episode of season three of Full Swing on Netflix reveals, many of Scheffler’s peers also couldn’t believe the news. Famed reporter, Amanda Balionis confessed, “We all had the same response, at the same time”. And that was “I thought it was fake”, as Rickie Fowler stated. The likes of Tom Kim and Joel Dahmen also reacted similarly.

Speaking about the incident, Justin Thomas was still in bed when the news broke out. So when he did eventually get up, he said “My agent called me (to break the news). So it was a pretty quick wake up, I’d say”. Getting the news of a fellow golfer’s arrest will wake any player up. Even Scheffler’s caddie, Ted Scott couldn’t believe it. He said, “No chance this was real. This has to be some kind of a spoof, or they got the wrong guy”. This coming from the 2024 Masters Tournament winner’s closest associates just shows how surprising it actually was. That’s how ridiculous the reports seemed.

Balionis perfectly described it when she said “I think there was just so much confusion around it because it’s Scottie Scheffler we’re talking about!” as she laughed off at the ludicrous nature of the report. Even Scheffler himself was confused about what was happening as he said “I was freaking out because I somehow went from driving into the golf course to a jail cell, and I still don’t really know how that happened exactly”. Still reliving the moment to this day, world no. 1 stated, “I don’t think it ever really felt real”.

We can’t imagine what must have gone through Scottie Scheffler’s mind after the situation. But his performance in the remaining rounds might indicate something.

Scottie Scheffler’s criminal act on the course

After an impressive start in the first round, Scottie Scheffler was looking to rise up the ranks on Friday. However, the arrest really got to his head as he took his frustration out on the course. Scheffler shot a 5-under 66 in the second round to tie at 4th with Bryson DeChambeau. But things were different once he got the time to reflect on it away from the course.

The rollercoaster ride began in the third round, where Scheffler went 2-over par 73 to end up tied at 24th. He was 8 strokes away from the top of the table which was led by Collin Morikawa and Xander Schauffele at -15. Despite another valiant effort in the final round, the world no. 1 couldn’t make up the difference as he finished at T8. On any other weekend, Scheffler might have ended up much higher on the leaderboard. But luck was on his side during the 2024 PGA Championship.

Bernhard Langer Faces Fresh Scrutiny After His Alleged Cheating Against Tiger & Charlie Woods Went Unaddressed

The Ghost of Christmas Past has returned to haunt the golf world. Nearly two months after Bernhard Langer and his son controversially defeated Tiger Woods and Charlie Woods at the 2024 PNC Championship, the incident has resurfaced on the popular “Dan on Golf” podcast. Host Dan Rapaport fielded a provocative fan question, “When will the world turn on Bernhard Langer for cheating over the last nine years of his career?”—which reignited a debate that many thought had been put to rest after the holiday tournament’s conclusion.

What makes this question particularly intriguing in February 2025 is how it forces the golf world to revisit not just the December incident but Langer’s entire career of rule interpretations. The German legend’s victory over the Woods family sparked an immediate outcry on social media, with allegations ranging from anchored putting to bunker manipulation. Now, with respected golf journalist Alan Shipnuck offering his perspective on the matter, golf fans have a new lens through which to view the controversy.

Shipnuck defends Bernhard Langer’s character despite controversial tactics

“Bernhard has such a black-and-white personality. He is so meticulous, and also, other guys on the tour would be making a much bigger deal if he would be beating them every week by flat-out cheating,” Shipnuck stated on the podcast, offering a thoughtful defense of the 67-year-old’s character. The veteran golf journalist, who has covered Langer for decades, went further in his assessment: “I think he is one of those guys who can’t sleep at night if he knows he is cheating.”

This defense comes despite the controversial nature of Langer’s actions during that crucial playoff hole at the PNC Championship. Viewers and social media critics pointed to two specific incidents that triggered the cheating allegations: First, Langer’s strategic placement of his ball atop a sand mound in a bunker, creating what ESPN’s Paolo Uggeti described as a “makeshift tee” that allowed him to hit a 275-yard drive with his driver rather than using a wedge to escape the hazard. Second, critics claimed Langer’s hand appeared to rest against his chest during his winning 18-foot eagle putt, potentially violating the anchoring ban implemented in 2016.

Shipnuck’s assessment of Langer’s character suggests that while the German’s actions may sometimes approach the boundaries of the rules, they reflect his meticulous nature rather than deliberate cheating. “There are guys who have been caught fudging, but Bernhard is not one of those types. I know him, have covered him for a long time, talked to him, and I find him to be a very appealing person.” The golf writer then added a crucial qualifier: “He sees the world so simply and in such a binary thing that I just don’t think he would do it. Or maybe I am giving him too much credit.”

This nuanced take illuminates the complexity of judgment in golf’s honor system. While PGA Tour Champions rules chief Joe Terry declared Langer’s actions fully compliant with the rules, the court of public opinion has been far less forgiving. The contrast was particularly stark when set against Tiger and Charlie Woods, who many fans felt played with more traditional sportsmanship. Adding another layer to the controversy was Langer’s use of forward tees based on age rules, starting approximately 50 yards ahead of Charlie and 80 yards ahead of Tiger during the crucial playoff hole—an advantage that, while perfectly legal, further fueled perceptions of an unfair playing field.

But to fully understand why this controversy resonates so deeply, we need to examine Langer’s long history with rule interpretations that have raised eyebrows.

Bernhard Langer’s career: marked by persistent rule interpretations controversies

The PNC Championship incident isn’t an isolated case in Langer’s storied career. During the 1991 Ryder Cup at Kiawah Island, questions arose about whether he had improperly grounded his club in a water hazard during a crucial singles match against Hale Irwin. While officials ruled no penalty at the time, the decision remains a point of contention in golf circles more than three decades later.

More persistent have been the accusations regarding Langer’s putting technique. Following the 2016 anchoring ban implemented by the USGA and R&A, Langer faced repeated scrutiny about whether his long putter technique violated the new rules. During the 2017 U.S. Senior Open and the Constellation Senior Players Championship, television close-ups suggested his forearm might have contacted his shirt during putts. Langer strongly denied these allegations, stating: “I know I don’t anchor… I wouldn’t break the rules.” The USGA and PGA Tour Champions officials repeatedly cleared him, confirming his hands were “free-swinging” with a gap from his chest.

Shipnuck’s defense significantly addresses how Langer’s techniques often approach the boundaries of what’s permitted. Also, his assessment suggests that Langer’s meticulous approach to the game means he finds and exploits gray areas in the rules rather than deliberately breaking them.

As the debate continues into 2025, Shipnuck’s comments offer a nuanced perspective that neither fully condemns nor completely exonerates Langer. Does exploiting rules loopholes constitute cheating, or is it simply smart golf?

Heartbroken Hideki Matsuyama Silences Critics Questioning His TGL Loyalty With 7-Word Message
Match 10 and 11 of the innovative TGL took place at the SoFi center in Florida. Los Angeles Golf Club took on the New York Golf Club in the first match. The thriller went into overtime after a tie score of 4-4 in regular play. Collin Morikawa and replacement Tony Finau held their nerve to beat Rickie Fowler and Matt Fitzpatrick to the pin in the playoff. It gave the LAGC qualification to the playoffs, while New York Golf Club had to be satisfied with a point and judgment on a later day.

The second match had similar stakes. Boston Common Golf, led by Rory McIlroy had yet to win a game while the Atlanta Drive Golf Club were looking to cement their spot in the playoffs with a win. At the end of the triples phase of play, Boston was looking at an upset and leading 2-1. But two crucial hammer plays (resulting in double points) turned the tide around for Atlanta Drive who finished winners 3-6 at the end.

After the match, Boston Common Golf player and 2025 Sentry winner Matsuyama had certain thoughts about his performance at the TGL.

Hideki Matsuyama feels like he needs to improve his TGL performance

TGL’s impact in the United States is incredible. The league averaged nearly 500k viewers across the first six days of golf. The tech-based league is also available across different countries, with U-NEXT showing the event in Japan. “Obviously I’m not in Japan so I don’t know exactly how much impact we have in Japan, but I’ve been hearing that we have a pretty good viewership back in Japan,” Matsuyama stated.

During the first two games of the league, Adam Scott took the field instead of Hideki Matsuyama. Boston had a close overtime loss to Tiger Woods’s Jupiter Links Golf Club in their first match. Los Angeles Golf Club dismantled them in the second match by 6-2. Matsuyama was clearly disappointed that he wasn’t able to contribute to both matches. He stated, “We had a couple close matches we could have won. Just disappointed how I couldn’t contribute to the team.”

The golfer very recently came under fire as he had previously admitted that he did not follow the league closely. “I watched the opener maybe for 10, 15 minutes. I still haven’t visited the arena, so there’s lots of things I need to study, but I’m really looking forward to playing next week,” Matsuyama had explained before making his debut on February 17. This was heavily criticized by fans, questioning whether the 2025 Sentry winner is loyal to his TGL team. However, Matsuyama has been putting in hard work for his team whenever he takes part in matches.

But, his game has been very different from his PGA Tour form. In the 4 singles matchups in the last two games, Matsuyama has lost three times. In the game against the Bay Golf Club, Matsuyama and Wyndham Clark were locked in a final-round tussle, with the winner of the hole getting to win it for his game. Matsuyama came up short allowing Clark and the Bay GC to maintain their unbeaten run. The last match against the Drive was also particularly brutal, as he gave up three points to Billy Horschel thanks to a hammer hole and effectively sealed the loss. No one is more sad about this than the Japanese golfer.“I felt like the bunkers today were a bit different compared to the practice I had previously, and today lost two holes on singles. Very disappointed in how I played today,” the 2025 Sentry winner expressed his disappointment.

If anyone can turn it around, it is the Japanese. In the open field, he has been shining. He has made the cut at all the 6 PGA Tour events he has participated in. He is also second in the current FedEx points list. It is just a matter of turning his course form to the simulator. So, should his loyalty come into question? No! As it is just a matter of adjusting to one form of game from the other. Matsuyama even addressed his game candidly, “I feel like I have to adjust all of my game, so hopefully I have time to do that, and hopefully I get into the team next week.” If Hideki Matsuyama, returns to form, Boston Common Golf can very likely make the playoffs.

How can Boston Common Golf qualify for the playoffs

Right now, Rory McIlroy’s side is dead last in the table, having lost all matches so far. The slight advantage they have right now is that they did get a point from their loss to Tiger Woods’s Jupiter Links Golf Club, as it went to overtime. That Point could be the key deciding factor for Boston Common Golf.

Boston needs to beat New York comfortably in their head-to-head matchup, by at least 3 holes on March 3. On top of that, they will also need the Bay Golf Club and the Atlanta Drive Golf Club to beat Jupiter Links Golf Club in their respective matches against the Tiger Woods side on February 25 and March 4. This will be the more difficult to achieve as both Ludvig Aberg’s Bay GC and the Drive have qualified for the playoffs.

The advantage for Hideki Matsuyama and Co. is that Tiger Woods will not feature in the upcoming match against Bay Golf Club. This would be a big hit for Woods’s team. Do you think Boston Common Golf Club could eke their way into the playoffs? Or will either Jupiter Links Golf Club or New York Golf Club spoil their party?

‘Nelly Broke Him’: Keegan Bradley Makes Bold Choice As ‘Tough Loss’ at Tiger Woods’s TGL Haunts Ryder Cup Captain
TGL’s fresh approach to professional golf was on full display when Nelly Korda playfully compared 2025 US Ryder Cup captain, Keegan Bradley’s green TGL outfit and mustache combination to Luigi from Nintendo’s Mario franchise. On February 17th, during the Boston Common vs. The Bay match, Korda shared an Instagram story juxtaposing Bradley’s look with the famous video game character, which instantly went viral and generated thousands of shares and comments across platforms.

Bradley has been flaunting his mustache since the season-opening Sentry in Maui nearly two months ago. At that time, Bradley shared that his new look started as a joke; “Well, I did it as a joke to my wife and family, and they all thought it was funny and liked it. Then now that I’ve played a couple good rounds I’m getting nervous, I’m going to have to keep this thing for a while.” Now, just one week later, Bradley surprised everyone.

He arrived at the SoFi Center on February 24th sporting a completely new look for his team’s match against Atlanta Drive GC. The 2011 PGA Championship winner had shaved off his mustache. The transformation quickly caught attention on social media, with GOLF.com sharing a post capturing the moment: “He shaved his mustache AND wore the Happy Gilmore gold jacket. Keegan is doing everything he can to get Boston their first win. 🐸”

Which team is Keegan Bradley trying to help secure their first win in the TGL season?

Bradley’s image overhaul comes at a particularly noteworthy time as Boston Common Golf struggles in the inaugural TGL season. The desperation is warranted—with just one point from three losses (including an overtime defeat), Bradley’s team sits dead last in the standings. Their performance issues have been significant—ranking last in made putts over 10 feet and holding a dismal 0-4-6 record on par-4 holes through their first two matches. The team desperately needs wins in their remaining matches to avoid elimination before the March playoffs.

The dramatic transformation of Bradley’s appearance sparked immediate reactions across social media platforms, with golf fans weighing in on everything from the timing to the potential impact on his play. This wave of responses highlights how TGL has fundamentally changed the player-fan relationship in professional golf.

Fan reactions to Keegan Bradley’s no-mustache look

Some fans immediately connected Bradley’s new look to Korda’s viral comparison. “Nelly broke him,” hilariously commented one fan, expressing what many were thinking—that the clean-shaven appearance was a direct response to being compared to a video game character.

Another group took a more pragmatic view of the aesthetic change itself. “To be fair, that mustache was hideous,” wrote one fan, while another claimed to “have it on good authority; it was waxed, along with other sensitive bits.” Many supporters connected the new look to Boston Common’s desperate situation in the TGL standings. “Gold jacket, green jacket, who gives a sh*t…. Keegs is on a mission,” commented one fan, referencing the famous Happy Gilmore line while acknowledging Bradley’s determination to reverse his team’s fortunes. With their dismal 0-3 record and struggles on par-4 holes, fans clearly recognize that the team needs something—anything—to change their trajectory in the league.

Perhaps most interestingly, some fans are already speculating about the mustache’s future comeback. “Definitely need it back for the Ryder Cup,” suggested one netizen while another lamented they were “hoping for the crazy hockey rally half-stache,” referencing the superstitious grooming choices athletes often make during crucial competitive stretches. Like golfers sported a mullet haircut last year, this year it would be Bradley’s mustache garnering attention at Bethpage.

Only time will tell if Bradley’s clean-shaven appearance helps Boston Common secure their elusive first win. But with his willingness to reinvent himself, both on and off the course, it’s clear that TGL is already changing how golf’s personalities present themselves to the public. Will the mustache make a triumphant return if Boston Common starts winning? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below!

Charlie Woods’s PGA Tour Idol Admits He ‘Hates’ & Badly Wants to Change What the 16-Year-Old Loves Most About Him
Imagine having Tiger Woods as your dad, and still finding another idol! An idol who saw your dad win when they were 11. Strange but true, in Charlie Woods’s case. Jake Knapp watched Woods win at La Costa Resort, just 5 miles from his home. He enjoyed it thoroughly and even followed Woods’s then-caddie, Steve Williams, for a golf ball. He got it, and still holds it very dearly, packed in the “same little plastic case sitting on my shelf at home.”

Now, we all know Charlie likes to keep his dad on his toes. Even laugh hard at him when his dad hits a shot into the virtual water! So, how do we know that a 15x major winner is not Charlie’s idol? The father himself told the world! During the 2024 Masters, Woods sat down with Lance Bennett and revealed that his son loves Jake Knapp’s swings and thinks he is a great coach.

This praise makes sense because Knapp is well-known for his impressive swings and good reason. Knapp’s golf swing looks incredibly smooth and effortless while generating a huge amount of power, thanks to a very wide backswing that creates a long arc and high clubhead speed. By maintaining good posture and control throughout the swing, it also becomes a visually appealing sight. While Charlie Woods and Knapp’s fans find this amazing, Knapp does not share the same opinion.

During a recent appearance on The Golfer’s Journal, Knapp revealed that he does not like his swing. We know, shocker! But how come the young golfer confessed to such a thing? Well, when asked if he was aware of Woods’s love for his swing, Knapp replied that while he had never heard Charlie actually say it, he had heard that from his caddie the next morning. Knapp smiled and mentioned Tiger Woods’s follow-up comment about the inconsistency of his swing.
He added, “Yeah, I am working on it. But, um, no, I think that was pretty cool. I think just like the overall, like, I don’t know how much people have like become a fan of like my swing and my move and everything when like if only they knew how much I hate my golf swing, you know?” Knapp followed up with, “I mean I don’t actually hate my swing, but there are so many things I want to get better at. There are so many things I do that I don’t like and wish I could change or whatever.” While he agrees that he has improved his swings a lot, he still has much to work on this season.

Jake Knapp’s performance in his 2025 season

If there’s one thing about Jake Knapp, it’s that he pays proper attention to his gameplay. He even admitted this once by saying, “I go back and watch it all the time, not as much to relive the moment, but more so to better understand how I went about playing the course, maybe what my swing looked like during certain shots or things like that.” This season, Knapp competed in 7 tournaments, with his best finish being T17 at The Genesis Invitational. This respectable yet strong performance earned him $270,714.

While there’s a long way to go until the end of the 2025 season, Knapp achieved a total of 4 Top 10 finishes in 2024, with his best performance at the Mexico Open, where he secured a win. Now that the golfer is focusing on his swings, how does the Mexico Open 2025 look for him? Currently, he is positioned at T65. But that’s alright. We are confident that the young star golfer will soon see the fruits of his hard work.

Here’s to us wishing him good luck!

Nelly Korda & Co. Lose It as Lexi Thompson Drops 5-Word Relationship Update Amid Her LPGA Comeback
Golf fans were treated to surprising news on New Year’s Day in 2025. Lexi Thompson got engaged to Max Provost. The golfer who had kept her personal life secret all that time, shared that she had “said YES to my forever and always.” Her holiday to Whistler, Canada proved to be truly magical. Ever since a few things have happened in their relationship.

The couple had a beautiful engagement party on January 13, surrounded by all their loved ones and white balloons. Lexi dressed in white, Max in blue and white, a perfect reflection of the love and joy they felt at that moment. Max’s brown leather shoes added a charming touch of personality. Lexi Thompson celebrated her first Valentine’s Day as a fiancé, dressed beautifully in red. The 30-year-old uploaded a selfie with Provost on Instagram and wrote, “Valentine for life.” Indeed! While playing her last few tournaments in 2024, Thompson shared that she was very excited to start a family.

Now that it has been more than a month since their engagement party, Thompson finally shared the engagement shoot pictures! “LOVE how our engagement pictures came out !!”, stated excited Thompson on Instagram. The couple looked really happy and accompanying them was Leo, Thompson’s cute little Havapoo, who is a very common companion on Tour alongside the 2014 Chevron Championship winner.

Which LPGA golfer recently got engaged to Max Provost?

The post was met with extreme delight, with several LPGA Pros complimenting the couple. Nelly Korda went the visual route and used the fire and heart-eyes emoji to express her admiration at the engagement and the photos. Sandra Gal, LPGA Pro from Germany, also took the emoji route with three heart eyes to express her delight. Olympic Gold medalist Lydia Ko also shortly expressed her emotions, letting the couple know that the engagement pictures were on point, “So beautiful!!!!.”

Last year, Thompson had announced that she would be excusing herself from full-time commitment to the LPGA Tour. She had since then been featured sporadically on the course. On one occasion, it was for her close friend Morgan Pressel’s charitable cause. She teed up for the Morgan Pressel Foundation, which aims to combat breast cancer through research and education. Morgan Pressel was very happy for her close friend stating, “So gorgeous!!!!” Then she also played at the Cognizant Founders Cup, finishing T13.

“The Founders are the reason why we’re able to be out here today and to be on the LPGA Tour,” said Thompson of the event. “Those are the women that founded the Tour, so we’re lucky and honored to be able to tee it up here. And this is only about three hours from my home, so definitely an easy trip. I definitely plan on playing a few more times this year.”

And it was not just the LPGA Pros that took part in the excitement. Thompson had endeared herself to the fans, with her great game on the course and wholesome attitude off it.

Fans join in to celebrate Lexi Thompson’s engagement

One overly excited fan said, “I wish you both a lifetime of love and Joy.” The couple keeps the details of their life very private. Max Provost is a Clinical Sales Representative at Intuitive Surgical. Residing in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Provost graduated from Florida State University with a Bachelor’s degree in Business and Marketing.

The felicitations were streaming from every corner as happy fans took to social media to extend their heartfelt wishes. “Congratulations. You deserve this and the best of luck to the couple.”The photos were spectacular, capturing the beauty and the wholesomeness of the moment well. Several fans were excited for the occasion, but the images multiplied the excitement. “What a lovely photo,” stated one enthusiastic fan. “Love these. So beautiful and handsome,” commented another.

The Florida Native also told Golfweek that she might tee off in the upcoming Ford Championship in Arizona, and the JM Eagle LA Championship in California next April. Are you excited to catch Lexi Thompson back in action?
