Morri: In appreciation of the non-winners
For all the off-course chaos in the game right now, it’s encouraging to note golf still delivers a competitive spectacle unlike any other sport.

Hayes: What would Jim Ferrier think?
It’s Open week, thank Ferrier (I’ve decided after much analysis that old Jim warrants being my golfing god).

Clayton: Designing in the field
Normally a brief from a golf club or a client to a golf course architect is reasonably extensive. Something of an exception was Richard Sattler, the Barnbougle owner who simply told Tom Doak and I – “I don’t care what you do – just don’t screw it up.”

Morri: A ‘revolution’ that smacks of sameness
It must feel quite surreal inside the LIV Golf bubble. For evidence, see Talor Gooch’s rightly lambasted delusional comparison of the LIV team event to the Ryder Cup.

Morri: Not even close to a fair fight
I don’t know how many ways there are to say this, but the game’s best women players deserve better. Much better.

Opinion: Black clouds apparently alright for others
Let’s be honest. There exists almost no ideal time for significant news that won’t steal attention away from another tournament in the never ending cycle of professional golf.

Morri: Comparing Saudi golf involvement is apples to oranges
More than one person wondered aloud this week why the Ladies European Tour players teeing up in the Saudi-backed Aramco Team Series haven’t been subject to the same scrutiny as their male counterparts who have signed up for the LIV Tour.

Huggan: The U.S. Open displays what LIV can’t buy
Before the 122nd U.S. Open began, much of the chatter around The Country Club was devoted to the first LIV event. No surprise there, of course, the evolution of the Saudi-backed Tour/circuit/series has been the talk of the other Tours for months now.

Huggan: Scheffler and Daffue – opposite sides of Kipling's coin
Rudyard Kipling might have been a golfer. Then again, maybe not. But even if he never teed-up anywhere, you get the feeling the Englishman born in India knew a thing or two about the endless vagaries of the stick-and-ball game Scotland gave to the world.

Huggan: Tarren continues multiple U.S. Open traditions
Amongst many, one of the great traditions at the U.S. Open is that the men who shoot some of the lowest scores on day one are often enough household names. But only in their own households.

Huggan: Major force Zalatoris keen on tough test
This week at The Country Club, Will Zalatoris will compete for only the ninth time in one of golf’s four most important events. He and they are already a more than snug fit.

Huggan: Rahm’s (briefly interrupted) Brookline love in
He’s the defending champion. He’s been to No.1 in the world. But not that many people are talking about Jon Rahm as a possible winner of this 122nd U.S. Open. Which is surprising, but then again, not.

Morri: Minjee and Matilda remind us of the best of golf
There are times when golf feels like one giant juxtaposition. Last week was one of those times.
13 Jun 2022
Morri: It’s tough ... even at the top
Whether toiling under the intense spotlight at the U.S. Women’s Open or the virtual anonymity of the PGA Tour Latino America, professional golf is not for the feint of heart.

Morri: Northcote’s survival a cautionary tale
Recent developments around the Northcote Public golf course in Melbourne are cause for serious concern among those who have an interest in the future of public golf.

Opinion: Major week time for major farewell
It always started the same.

Morri: The importance of managing expectations
In an upcoming episode of Golf Australia magazine’s The Thing About Golf podcast, a conversation with Nick O’Hern turned to the work he does with some of Australia’s most promising young professionals.

Review: Federal Golf Club
Canberra is quite obviously best known for being the home of our Federal Parliament and all manner of government agencies. But there is far more to attract you to the nation’s capital.

Morri: A reminder of professional golf’s place
It’s easy to get distracted by professional golf, particularly those of us who work in the industry (and especially the media).

Morri: Australian Open decision combines our best assets
There will be those not in favour, but I say Golf Australia are to be applauded for last week’s announcement that the 2022 Australia Opens will adopt the Vic Open model of the past decade.

Holiday at Home: The Great Ocean Road
For 100 years, the Great Ocean Road has been the gateway to one of the most iconic and beautiful coastlines in Australia, perhaps the world. And if you want to take in these breathtaking sights, we suggest you take your golf clubs with you.
