Just turning on the Phils game. Those Os unis are trash. Can’t believe they are wearing those at home. Should be guaranteed L. If we lose to that, season is over.
They made this man dress like this IN HIS OWN HOUSE
I’ve made a terrible mistake
Soccer is my favorite sport and always will be, but Jesus Christ they've got to do something about this VAR issue. Every exciting moment devolves into legalistic nitpicking and standing around. For a match like this to end with Zapruder analysis and trigonometry is simply not fun!!!
Some notes on the final round of the Travelers before the leaders tee off. Hovland v. Scottie (and the field) is pretty interesting, as they’ve both had pretty stable data through, highlight by one elite round of putting by Scottie. substack.com/@fairwaywood...
Took the fam to the Phils game tonight and used the DC resident $5 ticket perk, section was mostly Phils fans and it was a great win. Came home and put on USMNT. Exciting/sloppy game. Love it. Here’s some thoughts from R1 of Travelers. Hoping my Cole outright holds up. substack.com/@fairwaywood...
The U.S. Open starts Thursday at Shinnecock Hills. In 2018, not one player in a 156-player field completed a bogey-free round. Here’s what the data says about who survives this week. 🧵

Jackson Suber leads the RBC Canadian Open heading into the final day. He hasn’t been dominant, just steady. Will that be enough to hold off Tommy Fleetwood, Wyndham Clark, Bud Cauley and Sam Burns? Notes ahead of R4: substack.com/@fairwaywood...

Pre-tournament note on what to watch at the RBC Canadian Open: The rough is up, the greens are soft, and the real test doesn’t start until Saturday, so the opening leaderboard might not be what you see on Sunday. substack.com/@fairwaywood...
The PGA Tour is playing in the rough right now. Muirfield played hard. Shinnecock is next. Between them: Osprey Valley, which is penal but still gives you birdies, if you find the fairway. (1/3) My preview: fairwaywoody.substack.com/p/rbc-offers...
RBC offers gentler taste of Tour's 'rough season'
Tour courses feature penal rough from the Memorial to the US Open, but RBC still lets players score.

Last thoughts on Muirfield: Poston is the first in Memorial history to win while losing strokes off the tee—43rd in SG:OTT. He won on approach and putting. Muirfield punishes bad tee shots but rewards elite iron play enough to overcome them. (1/3) fairwaywoody.substack.com/p/postons-ap...
Poston's approach defies Memorial's history
Memorial winner struggled off the tee, succeeding with strong approach and putting.

The Memorial Tournament’s historical record says J.T. Poston should not have been able to win at Muirfield Village. He was short and inaccurate off the tee. But his approach and putting compensated. My thoughts on the data: fairwaywoody.substack.com/p/postons-ap...

Some thoughts heading into the Memorial: Scottie is chasing Tiger territory this week. Tiger won three straight from ‘99–‘01; Scottie won the last two, so one more ties it. My model gives Scottie a history score of 9.65 out of 10, the highest in the field by margin. (1/5)
Russell Henley entered the week ranked 22nd in the Charles Schwab field in approach and 11th in putting. He led the field in approach by the time it was over. Read the link below for my recap of the Schwab, and my preview of this week’s Memorial. fairwaywoody.substack.com/p/henleys-ap...

Fourteen players are within three shots of Jordan Smith’s lead entering Round 3. That’s different than the past two years, when it was three or four. Why? My takeaways heading into R3: substack.com/@fairwaywood...
JJ Spain is the standout from R1 of the Charles Schwab to me. And to the betting markets, he’s topping most of the odds boards. Solid all around, including with the putter, which had been missing. Course should dry up next few days, making conditions harder than R1. substack.com/profile/5326...

Wyndham Clark went nuclear with his putter to win the Byron Nelson. Then the tour heads to Colonial, where the putter might not be enough for the field's best ball-strikers. New edition of Fairway Wood: fairwaywoody.substack.com/p/clark-goes...
After Scheffler tied a 72-hole scoring record for a par 71 course at −31 in the 2025 Byron Nelson, the course underwent a $22 million renovation. Would the makeover bring winning scores down from the -20s to something closer to 12–15 under? The short answer is no. The longer answer is here:
