In an interview in the fall, Theegala recounted that he hit so many poor shots in a short stretch last year with the 7-iron that he asked his club maker, Ping, at the BMW Championship in the FedEx Cup Playoffs to scrape off the “7” on his club and put a different font of “8” on it.

The LAGC and Jupiter Links Golf Club teed off in Tiger Woods' first TGL match. Here are the best moments and highlights.

Rory McIlroy's former agent Andrew 'Chubby' Chandler has offered a dim take on TGL after Tiger Woods made his debut.
