The world No. 1 finished at 17-under par after rounds of 66, 61, 68 and 66, with his second-round 61 proving to be the turning point of the week. Scheffler produced 11 […]

Golf in Egypt: Pyramids, the Red Sea, and Some of Africa’s Most Underrated Fairways

Egypt is not the first name that comes up when golfers swap notes on winter sun destinations — Spain, Portugal, and the UAE usually take that spotlight. But quietly, over the past three decades, Egypt has built one of the most distinctive golf landscapes on earth: championship courses shaped by Gary Player, Nick Faldo, and […]

Le Golf National Unveils Its New Identity: Inside the Albatros Course’s Long-Awaited Reopening

For nearly two years, the Albatros course at Le Golf National has sat quiet — a rare pause for a venue that hosted the 2018 Ryder Cup and the golf events of the 2024 Paris Olympics within the space of six extraordinary summers. On September 1, 2026, that silence ends. The Albatros reopens not as […]

A Golfer’s Guide to Cabo San Lucas: Where the Desert Meets the Sea

There are golf destinations, and then there is Cabo San Lucas. At the southern tip of Mexico’s Baja California Peninsula, two oceans collide — the Pacific and the Sea of Cortez — and the courses built along that meeting point are unlike anything else in the game. Fairways run beside sand dunes, tee boxes perch […]

A New Chapter on an Old Fairway: Inside the Hyatt Regency Vilamoura Algarve

For more than three decades, the hotel at the heart of Vilamoura’s golfing quarter was known simply as the Dom Pedro. In early 2026, that chapter closed and a new one began: following a top-to-bottom renovation, the property reopened as the Hyatt Regency Vilamoura Algarve, ahead of its original schedule. It’s a rebrand with real […]

What’s In The Bag: Michael Thorbjornsen’s Winning Clubs at the 2026 Rocket Classic

Michael Thorbjornsen captured the biggest victory of his career by winning the 2026 Rocket Classic, securing his maiden PGA Tour title after a composed and confident performance at Detroit Golf Club. One of the most highly regarded young talents in American golf, the former Stanford standout showcased the all-around game that made him one of […]

The Best Golf Experiences Within Two Hours of Paris

Paris rarely tops the conversation when golfers debate Europe’s great destinations, yet the Île-de-France region quietly holds one of the continent’s densest clusters of exceptional courses. Six courses in and around the city sit inside Europe’s top 100, several of them shaped by the same handful of early-twentieth-century architects who defined golf in the sandy […]

Your Golf Vacation in Saint-Tropez

Saint-Tropez has been seducing artists, aristocrats, and the international jet set since the 1960s, but beyond the yacht-lined Old Port and Pampelonne’s beach clubs lies a quieter, equally seductive pleasure: golf framed by umbrella pines, cork oaks, and views across the Mediterranean. A golf trip here isn’t about ticking off championship layouts in isolation; it’s […]

Hidden Golf Paradises in Europe You Haven’t Played Yet

Europe’s golfing reputation is built on a handful of household names: St Andrews, Carnoustie, Valderrama, the Algarve’s resort belt. But scattered across the continent’s edges — Arctic islands, volcanic archipelagos, alpine valleys, and forgotten Mediterranean cliffs — are courses that rarely make it onto a golfer’s radar, despite offering scenery, design pedigree, and golfing history […]

Best Multi-Country Golf Tours in Europe

Golf in Europe has never respected borders quite the way its geography suggests it should. A links round in County Down can be followed by a warm-up swing in the Highlands within a day’s travel, and a morning tee time in the Algarve can lead to an afternoon flight that lands you at a Robert […]

Tee Off in Tuscany: Golfing Italy’s Most Picturesque Countryside

There is a particular kind of golf that only Tuscany can offer — a round where the scenery competes so fiercely with the game itself that you might find yourself pausing on the fairway, putter in hand, just to stare. Cypress trees rise like green sentinels against a burnt-sienna sky. Rolling vineyards border the rough. […]

A Golf Trip to the Scottish Highlands

There are golf destinations, and then there is the Scottish Highlands. Few places on earth demand a golfer’s attention quite so insistently — not merely for the courses, which are extraordinary, but for the overwhelming sense that here, the game has always been exactly as it should be: played on natural terrain, beneath wide skies, […]

A Luxurious Escape to Finca Cortesin

Tucked into the rolling hills of southern Spain, roughly midway between Marbella and Sotogrande, Finca Cortesin is the kind of place that renders superlatives almost inadequate. Opened in March 2006 and sprawling across 532 acres of Mediterranean countryside, it arrived on the Costa del Sol with quiet confidence — and proceeded to redefine what a […]

The Titleist Vokey SM11: Refining an Icon That Was Already Winning

There is a particular kind of engineering challenge that doesn’t get enough credit — the challenge of improving something that is already, by almost every measure, perfect. When your product accounts for more than half of all gap, sand, and lob wedges played on the PGA Tour, when players gaming at least one of your […]

Why Comporta, Portugal, Is the Next Big Golf Destination

There is a stretch of the Portuguese coastline, about an hour south of Lisbon, where umbrella pine forests give way to sweeping sand dunes, rice paddies shimmer in the Atlantic breeze, and the Sado Estuary glitters at golden hour. This is Comporta — and quietly, almost inevitably, it has become the most exciting new address […]

2026 U.S. Open at Shinnecock Hills: Preview & FAQ

The third major of the year returns to one of the most feared addresses in American golf. From June 18 to 21, the 126th U.S. Open will be staged at Shinnecock Hills Golf Club in Southampton, New York, marking the storied Long Island links’ sixth turn hosting the championship and its first since the chaos-tinged […]

Lofoten Golf Experience: Playing at the Edge of the World

There are golf courses with great views, and then there is Lofoten Links. Perched on the island of Gimsøya in Norway’s Lofoten archipelago, well above the Arctic Circle, this is a course that does not merely offer scenery — it immerses you in a landscape so raw and so alive that the act of swinging […]
