This week's Improvement Pivot Point is simple, but decisive: Be Detailed.The Farmers Insurance Open gave us a masterclass in what that actually looks like. Justin Rose set the tone with a rare wire-to-wire performance on the PGA Tour — the kind of win that isn't about riding momentum, but about creating it early and protecting it with discipline. From the opening round onward, it was fairways first, precise iron windows, and a pre-shot routine that never changed, regardless of scoreboards or pressure. The details didn't fade as the week went on — they sharpened.On the LPGA Tour, Nelly Korda showed how quickly form can turn when process leads. Her charge wasn't built on forcing birdies, but on recommitting to her decisions — picking the right shots, swinging with conviction, and trusting her routine when the momentum of the tournament shifted. It was patience paired with intent.Across the globe, the same theme repeated itself. Both the DP World Tour and the Korn Ferry Tour crowned first-time winners — players who didn't chase perfection or rely on hero moments. They managed misses, stayed inside their plans, and let consistency do the heavy lifting over four demanding days.This episode unpacks the weekend of golf to show why detail matters — in preparation, decision-making, and especially in pre-shot routines. At every level, improvement doesn't come from doing more. It comes from doing the small things on purpose, over and over again.Be detailed.Own Your SSWING.And let the results take care of themselves.Shop SSWING Swag

Phew it's a big show, so much to get through!We start today by discussing the phenomenon of Justin Rose. Nick and Mark both love how he plays, his attitude on the course and his focus off it. They explain why. Nick recalls playing with him as a young pro and even in Justin's difficult earlier days on tour, his attitude was always great. Nick gives Justin the BMW 'Touch of Class' today on the show, and shares a great story about his partnership arrangement with Morgan Stanley. We look at some of Justin's stats from the Underdog Golf Twitter page.Mark found the seemingly relentless coverage of Brooks Koepka at Torrey Pines at the weekend amusing. He reckons they showed nearly every shot of Brooks, and has a theory as to why.News broke last week after our main pod that Patrick Reed was leaving LIV, Nick speculates as to the reasons why and we discuss who they might replace him with.Bahrain at the weekend....goodness. Calum Hill had a pretty tough time. We touch on it, but we'll come back tomorrow and do a mini discussing what happened to him and how you can prevent it happening to your game.Okay...we need to discuss this. Keegan Bradley is out of control. For viewers on YouTube we watch an extraordinary clip, which Nick and Mark commentate through on the pod. His aim point technique is 'terrible' and Mark says that Keegan needs to be 'shamed' for it. He gives his solution to the problem, Nick has a different one and gives his. Both agree it's out of control and the PGA are allowing it to happen. Mark says that if this can be fixed, then it's a real 'plus' for golf.Another bad look for golf was the LPGA opening tournament in Orlando. Weather issues sure, a shortened event, the course was unplayable until it wasn't. The whole thing was a mess. That said Nelly Korda played incredibly.Marks Top 5 for Betr today is the Top 5 farces in golf....one player makes two appearances ! And Nick and Mark discuss refusing to sign another players card when they knew he had cheated.And then - we're about to hook into the PING Globals, and our great mate, David ,The Ox, Schwarz, wanders into the studio unannounced! So of course we have to chat to him.....he has a couple of ripping stories from his golf club - one about the disastrous spring roll situation, and another about the time the drinks cart was cancelled on a 40-degree (celsius) day. He also tells us about our mate Scotty Cummings getting his first Ace !!! Always great to see The Ox.Anyway back to the PING Globals, and there's been a boatload of results over the last few days and Nick runs through them. Into some feedback and we start with a brutal one....a member of the pod gets a serious whack from wolfpacker Daniel. Plenty of other feedback on the dress code conversation, and a wolfpacker who tried Marks 'tip of the century' last week to great success.And we wrap the show with a masterclass on taking spin off the ball from Nick O'Hern for Golf Clearance Outlet.Fun show today!We're live from Titleist and FootJoy HQ thanks to our great partners:BMW, luxury and comfort for the 19th hole;Titleist, the #1 ball in golf;FootJoy, the #1 shoe and glove in golf;PING will help you play your best;Golf Clearance Outlet, they beat everyone's prices;Betr, the fastest and easiest betting app in Australia;And watchMynumbers and Southern Golf Club.

On this episode, Ryan looks back at Nelly Korda's weather-shortened win at the HGV Tournament of Champions and the weird conspiracy theories about the LPGA making the event 54 holes.

Tre ud af fire danskere klarede cuttet på Torrey Pines, og Nicolai Højgaard blev den bedste af de tre med en delt 22. plads i en turnering, hvor evigt unge Justin Rose vandt med hele syv slag. Jacob Skov Olesen blev bedste dansker på DP World Tour, der blev afgjort i et dramatisk omspil med blandt andre Patrick Reed, der siden sidst – ligesom Brooks Koepka - har forladt LIV Golf. Nelly Korda vandt i et kommunikationsmareridt på LPGA, det blev ikke danskernes uge på HotelPlanner Tour, og så taler vi med Søren Kjeldsen, inden han tager hul på sit 2026.

Justin Rose decimates the field at Torrey while Patrick Reed nearly won again on the DP World Tour a few days removed from announcing he's not returning to LIV, plus an LPGA fiasco at a frigid Tournament of Champions with the Orlando event shortened to 54 holes and Nelly Korda winning for the first time since 2024. Soly and TC recap the week along with DJ who joins for some first hand perspective on the LPGA side of things.

It was a historic weekend of professional golf as one of the game's greatest achievements finally came to an end. Andy begins this episode on a somber note as Xander Schauffele's "made cut streak" was snapped on Friday at the Farmers Insurance Open. Brendan joins in, remembering other iconic streaks such as Cal Ripken Jr.'s consecutive games played record and comparing them to Xander's totally-not-made-up mark. Justin Rose did make the cut and ran away with his second win at Torrey Pines, defeating a trio of players by seven shots. The 45-year-old is now ranked third in the OWGR and has played some of the best golf of his career in the last 12 months. Andy and Brendan wonder how much gas he has left in the tank, with Brendan predicting that Rose will compete in majors into his fifties. In other notes from the Farmers, Brooks Koepka finished t56 and had plenty of time on the broadcast on ESPN, Golf Channel, and CBS despite never being competitive. One of the two mules that Brooks brought onto the "ark" this week did make some money, kicking off our yearlong game of Brooks vs. Mules. Johnson Wagner also made his long-awaited CBS debut and did not disappoint, recreating shots while the tournament was still going on! The two also discuss Michael Brennan's DQ thanks to a Data Boy and strong weeks from Si Woo Kim, Joel Dahmen, and Ryo Hisatsune. The DP World Tour event in Bahrain ended in a playoff featuring Patrick Reed and ended in a wild concession that no one had ever seen before. The main event of this podcast is Andy and Brendan's recap of what went on at the LPGA's Tournament of Champions on Sunday. The event was shortened into a 54-hole event due to the course not being an "optimal competitive environment" for "competitive competition" according to some statements from the tour. Andy and Brendan tee off as they're astounded by the celebrity pro-am still being played on the very same course rather than the actual tournament. For those with tinfoil hats, Nelly Korda won for the first time in over 440 days as a result of the shortened event. There's also plenty of Illinois basketball talk at the end of this episode, as well as more invites from colleges across the country who want Andy, Brendan, and PJ to inspire the youth of America. Join us in Chicagoland for an SGS Live Show on Thursday, February 12! We'll be hanging out at SPACE in Evanston, Illinois for a night of Q&A, Champs Tour Minute, and plenty of Bears chatter.

On this episode of 5 Clubs, Gary Williams recaps a packed weekend across golf — highlighted by Justin Rose adding another milestone win as he continues to pile up victories on the PGA Tour (now 23 career PGA Tour wins) and proving that elite golf in your 40s is still very real.Then, Lucas Glover — a U.S. Open champion and six-time PGA Tour winner — joins to discuss what it takes to stay competitive through the ups and downs, why today's rising players look more “ready” than ever, and how TGL has exceeded expectations — including what makes Billy Horschel such a perfect fit for the format.The conversation also dives into Scottie Scheffler and what stands out most from inside the ropes: humility, consistency, and a “Ben Hogan-esque” style of dominance — plus how (and whether) it's fair to contextualize this run alongside Tiger Woods.Later, Gary reacts to the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions being shortened to 54 holes, featuring comments from Nelly Korda after her win — the 16th of her LPGA career.The show closes with a tribute to Scott Davenport — longtime head professional at Quail Hollow Club — and the impact he made on the game and everyone around him.0:00 Opening Thoughts2:20 Winners of the Weekend3:15 Farmers Insurance Open Recap 4:35 Justin Rose's impressive win and career 13:55 Lucas Glover 33:23 Looking back at LPGA's First Event43:55 Honoring Scott Davenport5 Clubs airs on Golf Channel and PGA TOUR Radio on SiriusXM (Channel 92)FOLLOW 5 Clubs: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/5clubsgolf/X: https://x.com/5ClubsGolf Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/5ClubsGolf/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@5clubsgolf

Justin Rose blew the doors off the rest of the field this week at Torrey Pines to win his 13th PGA Tour title of his career. Rose started the week hot posting a -10 (62) on the North Course and kept the good play going en route to a record breaking performance in the event with a winning score of -23. We will discuss his play along with others who played well, including the return of Brooks Koepka, who hit it pretty well, but putted horribly in southern California. It was a wild 3-man playoff on the DP World Tour which included Patrick Reed and Nelly Korda wins a shortened LPGA Tour event in Florida.

Sí, sí. Sabemos que todavía faltan dos meses para el Masters de Augusta, pero lo que hemos visto de Justin Rose, campeón en Torrey Pines, nos hace pensar que el inglés va rumbo a su primer saco verde y segundo ‘grande'.Además, lo bien que cae el regreso del “villano” Patrick Reed al PGA Tour, una pequeña previa de la temporada 2026 del LIV Golf, el “breve” título de Nelly Korda en LPGA y la importancia de torneos juveniles con nombres de estrellas actuales. Por último, una gran pregunta: ¿Ganar más Majors o ganar menos pero completar el Grand Slam de carrera?

TaylorMade CEO David Abeles joins the show (37:20) for an incredible interview on running a multi-billion dollar golf company, partnering with the top-3 players in the world (plus Tiger Woods), a driver that saved the company, the mini driver craze and much more. While we're recording, Patrick Reed returning to the PGA Tour news breaks (1:53:30). And we talk: Koepka's first call being Tiger (13:30), Nelly Korda's candid WTGL comments (23:20), Bill Belichick getting snubbed (1:33:50), Rory mocking Cantlay's foot waggle (29:50), and finish with Closest To The Pin (1:38:20).You can find every episode of this show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or YouTube.

On this episode (recorded Wednesday and had upload issues, pre-PReed exodus), Brooks Koepka explains how his PGA Tour comeback happened and the family situation that precipitated it. Also, Nelly Korda is disappointed that WTGL has no crossover with TGL, and that might give her some leverage.FOLLOW MEGolf News Net: https://thegolfnewsnet.comX: https://twitter.com/ryanballengeeFacebook: https://facebook.com/ryanballengeegolfInsta: https://instagram.com/ryanballengeegolf

Not sure if you've heard about it, but Brooks Koepka is back on the PGA Tour this week! Andy joins Brendan for this Farmers Insurance Open preview coming off a big Ballfrogs win on Monday night. He's giddy about the Frogs continuing to earn the top spot in our TGL Power Rankings and makes a pitch for Michael Thorbjornsen to become a permanent member of the team. Brooks Koepka has not yet joined a TGL team, but he did join some assembled media for a pre-tournament press conference at Torrey Pines on Tuesday. He spoke about his nerves returning to the PGA Tour and seemed a little emotional discussing the path that led him back to the Farmers. Andy and Brendan unpack the half-hour presser before Brendan offers up some over/unders for Koepka's 2026 season. How many Signature Events will he play? Will he return to Bellerive for the BMW Championship in August? Will he ever suit up for Jupiter Links after all? Koepka will be in a featured group at the Farmers for Thursday and Friday which will be broadcast on linear TV thanks to ESPN. Brendan wonders if this is the PGA Tour showing off to Bryson and Rahm that they could also be prominently featured on the Worldwide Leader in Sports if they were to return before their approaching deadline. Could Patrick Reed also be part of this conspiracy? We'll have to find out. Andy shares his "5 Guys to Monitor (For Various Reasons)" ahead of this week's festivities at Torrey, keeping an eye on a horse for the course and a major champion that could be on the trade block. One-and-done picks are made for the Farmers with PJ's pick prompting a fun Medinah story from Andy. Elsewhere on the schedule, LPGA season kicks off this week at the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions and Patrick Reed looks to stay hot on the DP World Tour in Bahrain. In news, the 2026 PGA Tour Player Advisory Council was announced and has a distinctly American feel, Nelly Korda has some *takes* about WTGL, and a DP World Tour player goes down for a performance-enhancing drug suspension.

On this Wednesday edition of 5 Clubs, Gary Williams breaks down what Brooks Koepka's return means for the PGA TOUR — and why the “win” might be as much about the return itself as it is about results. Gary also previews the LPGA season, highlighting the tour's depth, the importance of star power, and why Nelly Korda remains a major driver of mainstream attention as the LPGA continues evolving under new leadership.Frank Nobilo from CBS joins Gary to put Scottie Scheffler's dominance in context — including the sensible way to talk about Scheffler in the same breath as Tiger Woods (and even Jack Nicklaus), what truly separates the greats, and why “closing on Sundays” is the common thread. Frank also weighs in on golf's bigger-picture future: the PGA TOUR's potential schedule contraction, how “less can feel like more,” rotating playoff venues, and why relegation/elevation matters to the product (and the spirit) of the game.Later, Taylor Twellman stops by ahead of the Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions, where he's competing alongside LPGA stars and celebrities. Twellman shares a powerful story about how golf helped save him after a career-ending concussion, why the sport's mental demands are uniquely challenging, and how he balances focus, flow, and execution over a long round.Plus: Dogs of the Week and picks to close out the show.

Scottie Scheffler just notched win No. 20, and Gary Williams makes the case that this isn't a hot streak — it's the start of the Scheffler era. We break down the historic pace (20 PGA TOUR wins and 4 majors before age 30), the margins that separate him from the field, and why the comparisons to golf's all-time greats keep getting louder.Plus, Golf Magazine's Sean Zak joins the show to discuss what makes Scheffler so hard to beat, why his “bad days” barely exist, and what that dominance does to everyone else chasing him. We also touch on Tommy Fleetwood's mindset and what makes him one of the most relatable stars in the game.New 5 Clubs contributor Mel Reid joins Gary to talk LPGA storylines and the evolution of women's golf coverage — including why more live coverage and better broadcast tech matter, how the LPGA can build stronger fan engagement, and the challenges (and upside) of a global tour schedule. Mel also shares her perspective on playing more iconic venues, where mixed events fit (and don't fit), and what stands out most about Nelly Korda heading into the season.Listen to 5 Clubs on PGA TOUR Radio (SiriusXM Channel 92) and watch on Golf Channel.0:00 - 15:40 Scottie's Dominance 16:02 - 32:09 Sean Zak32:25 - 44:35 Mel Reid44:53 - 46:13 Final ThoughtsFOLLOW 5 Clubs: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/5clubsgolf/X: https://x.com/5ClubsGolf Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/5ClubsGolf/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@5clubsgolf

With Andy on the road, Brendan! kicks off this episode with a solo segment focusing on Jon Rahm and his Ryder Cup future. Brendan unpacks the ongoing legal battle between Rahm (and Tyrrell Hatton) and the DP World Tour regarding fines for playing unsanctioned (LIV) events. Rahm has repeatedly stated that he will not be paying these fines and has appealed the DP World Tour's ruling to the point of arbitration. Due to this appeal process, Rahm and Hatton have been able to play in DP World Tour events despite the outstanding fines and were allowed to play for Team Europe at the 2025 Ryder Cup. With the arbitration ruling looming, Brendan looks at whether Rahm's Ryder Cup status and DPWT status is really in jeopardy, and what it would mean for him (and Team Europe) moving forward. Brendan is then joined by Kevin Van Valkenburg for the rest of this Wednesday episode. KVV offers his take on the Rahm discourse and the news that Rahm will not tee it up until LIV's 2026 season kicks off in February. From there, the two run through the Schedule for the Week. Many stars are in India for the DP World Indian Championship in Delhi. Rory, Tommy, Hovland, "Benny Booms," and Brian Harman are among the notables competing at this fall series event. Viktor is back in action after his neck injury at Bethpage and was finally available to speak on the events leading to his Sunday "in the envelope." Elsewhere in golf, the LPGA's Asia swing rolls on with another limited-field event without Nelly Korda, the Champs Tour playoffs kick off in the DMV, and Q-School is ongoing.

Andy and Brendan went live on YouTube late Sunday night to recap Rory McIlroy's win at the Pebble Beach Pro-Am, his 27th career victory on the PGA Tour. They dive into what was a quality weekend of golf on the PGA Tour, providing a much-needed boost to the product after a sleepy start to the season. The two unpack Rory's dominating performance driving the ball, including the ridiculous line he took on the 14th hole which lead him to an eagle on Sunday to practically seal his win. Andy and Brendan also compliment the CBS broadcast, which elevated the event even more than its "signature" status. They discuss what turned out to be a packed European Ryder Cup leaderboard, with strong performances from Shane Lowry, Justin Rose, and Sepp Straka. TGL superstar Tom Kim was also a factor, finishing in a tie for seventh after being put on the clock for slow play (again). In addition to Rory, Scottie Scheffler also made his first start of 2025, finishing in a tie for ninth. After wrapping up with more discussion about why venues matter on the PGA Tour, Andy and Brendan turn their attention to perhaps their favorite venue, DLF. Ollie Schniederjans won for the first time in nine years, blowing out a LIV-heavy field in India. Andy shares some intel from someone who's played DLF about the course and why Bryson was perhaps not the biggest fan of the greens there. A Lim Kim won the LPGA's Tournament of Champions, which ended right in the coverage gap for Pebble Beach, outlasting a late charge by Nelly Korda on Sunday. In golf news from the weekend, Brendan shares a letter written by Charley Hoffman that was shared with PGA Tour members on Sunday night. Hoffman is suggesting that top players need to show their support for the Tour by playing in more events, despite taking time off to play overseas or in TGL matches on Mondays and Tuesday nights. To wrap this episode up, Andy, Brendan, and PJ react to the Luka Doncic trade in an NBA-focused Sports Minute.

Andy and Brendan return from the weekend with some excitement as Alejandro Tosti made it through Q-School on Sunday, securing his PGA Tour card for 2025 and ensuring another year of major league Tosti Tales. After a Swag Sports Minute about Brendan's experience at the Capitals game, it's time for the second men's major of 2024 on the Year in Review. Part 6 starts with the PGA Championship at Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Kentucky. Andy runs through the early week storylines such as Jimmy Dunne's resignation from the PGA Tour Policy Board and Mother Nature cancelling just one pre-tournament press conference due to a Tuesday storm - Michael Block's. From there, Brendan recaps Xander's course record 62 on Thursday, yet another hit for Blockie this week, before diving in to the madness of Scottie Scheffler's arrest on Friday morning. Jeff Darlington's tweets are read and $80 pants that were "damaged beyond repair" are discussed in this segment remembering one of the most chaotic days in golf. PJ slides in next to take the lead for the weekend, detailing Xander's transformation from housecat to bobcat, Bryson's showmanship ahead of Pinehurst, and Scottie's Saturday with the PGA Tour's chaplain on the bag. He also recalls Andy's early shouts for Justin Thomas to switch to the broom for his putting. Next, Andy shares some tales from his pro-am round with Blockie at the Charles Schwab Championship alongside the latest developments in the Scottie Scheffler case in its second week. Elsewhere, Richard Bland won the Senior PGA, leading to a hilariously passive aggressive tweet from the PGA Tour Champions announcing his victory. To wrap things up, Brendan looks back at the week of the RBC Canadian Open, won by Big Shot Bob MacIntyre with his dad on the bag. Nelly Korda makes a 10 on a par 3 at the U.S. Women's Open, a bird gets killed by a golf ball, and C.T. Pan goes through four caddies in one round in Canada.

The Year in Review rolls on for this Friday episode! Andy and Brendan went live on YouTube Thursday afternoon to remember what the golf world looked like in late April and early May of 2024. Things start at the RBC Heritage, another Scottie Scheffler win, which Andy calls the "win of the year." At this point in the year, Nelly Korda is also winning every time she tees it up, leading to inevitable comparisons between the two stars at the top of their games. From there, Brendan takes us through the Zurich Classic, a team event buoyed by a winning tandem of Rory McIlroy and Shane Lowry. The Zurich brings up the start of Cochran Corner and the initial reference of pod...casts (and housecats!) on PGA Tour Live. PJ jumps in to present on the next week which featured The CJ CUP Byron Nelson at TPC Craig T. Nelson. LIV Bolingbrook was announced this week, leading Andy back down memory lane, and Brooks Koepka became the first player to win four LIV events as the tour played in Singapore. To finish this episode off, Brendan shares his findings from the Wells Fargo Championship, Xander the Housecat's last hurrah.
