Youth movement The last eight PGA TOUR sanctioned tournament winners are all under the age of 30. Credit to Preferred Lines host Joe Idone for looking past the 3M Open and Jackson Koivun's incredible win. Considering all of the major championship winners were in their 30s this season, the TOUR is showing signs of an impressive youth movement. Those who follow RTL content closely know I have been asking the question: who are America's next generation of golf stars? The next wave of Jordan, JT,...

Hammer time Michael Thorbjornsen was a popular winner at the Rocket Classic. A Sunday 63 (and back nine 30!) got the job done against Xander Schauffele and a few other contenders in Detroit. A nice return at +3500 pre-tournament, "Thor" is the third winner in four weeks under 25 years old on the PGA TOUR! The last two of those first-time winners are American (Koivun, Thorbjornsen). Could we be developing a young core of Team USA stars to carry our International Teams? Let's see how the next...

Curtain call Incredible win by Jackson Koivun at the 3M Open. Carding a bogey-free five under par 66 with the world's best hunting you down shows true grit. I think we should celebrate this win with a ton of enthusiasm. It has been a minute (or two) since we have seen a great young American golf star. Before you anoint him the next Scottie Scheffler, I'll ask you to consider a couple of comparisons. Matt Wolff won in his third professional start. Wolff also recorded five wins that year in...

Burned again Who knew the best comp tournament for Royal Birkdale was the 2025 RBC Canadian Open?!?!?! Ryan Fox won in a playoff over Sam Burns while Cameron Young finished T4 and had a chance to win on the 72nd hole. All sarcasm aside, what a finish to the Open Championship. Ryan Fox birdied four of the last six holes to grab the Claret Jug by one stroke over Young. Tommy Fleetwood finished T4 at home, Siw Woo Kim and Sam Burns broke their backers’ hearts and then there's the real storylines...
