Blades Brown vs. The World No. 1 - January 25th, 2026
On January 25th, 2026, a high schooler chases 59 to tie the World No. 1 while the amateur landscape fractures over a forfeited trip to Augusta.
- The "changing of the guard" narrative accelerates as 18-year-old Blades Brown shoots a 60 at the Nicklaus Tournament Course, overcoming chaotic travel from the Bahamas to tie Scottie Scheffler for the lead at 17-under.
- Scheffler warns that young players lack "scar tissue," but Brown counters that he is there to "take notes" rather than feel fear.
- Despite the historic performance, Brown fueled his run with a Panda Express dinner and heartbreakingly missed a 7-footer for the magic number.
- Michael La Sasso forfeits a coveted Masters exemption to join Phil Mickelson’s HyFlyers GC, sparking a fierce debate between Graeme McDowell and Dan Rapaport on meritocracy versus financial security.
- Patrick Reed leads the Hero Dubai Desert Classic at 14-under and extends an olive branch to Rory McIlroy regarding "Tee Gate," confirming he will pay fines to maintain DP World Tour access.
- Rory sits 11 shots back, using a Manchester United analogy to explain his current form.
- Speculation mounts regarding Tiger Woods joining the Champions Tour after Tommy "Two Gloves" Gainey pointed out the Insperity logo on Tiger's sleeve and the allure of using a cart.
- We honor the passing of 90-year-old John Brodie, the only athlete to win an NFL MVP and a Senior Tour event (1991 Security Pacific Senior Classic).
Anthony Kim’s return • Cleeks GC roster overhaul • Bob Parsons’ PXG hologram • Andrew Putnam’s missed 59 bid
