We break down the brutal "no ties" finish at Dye’s Valley, the return of the Tour's biggest agitator, and Ben Griffin’s statistical leap into the world's elite.

Q SCHOOL CHAOS

• We dissect the "math of misery" at Dye’s Valley, where the strict no-ties rule created a zero-sum game at the 11-under cut line, forcing a high-stakes head-to-head between Ben Silverman and Dylan Wu for the final card.
• While AJ Ewart cruised to victory at -14, veteran Camilo Villegas missed his livelihood by a single shot at -10.
• The "Villain" returns: Alejandro Tosti (-12) earns his card, guaranteeing friction for the 2026 season—we discuss why his disciplinary record makes Tyrrell Hatton look like a choir boy.

THE GRIFFIN ASCENSION

• It is time to retire the "former loan officer" narrative; following his wedding to Doug Sieg, Ben Griffin has statistically arrived as a world-beater.
• Griffin has skyrocketed to #5 in Data Golf and #9 in the OWGR, cementing himself as a legitimate top-10 talent.
• We analyze the swing changes and mental freedom that have turned a feel-good story into a dominant force.

ROSTER WATCH & TIGER

• The "silly season" panic subsides as Si Woo Kim and Sungjae Im stay put, effectively killing rumors of an International team exodus to LIV.
• Tiger Woods Update: He is currently only chipping and putting following lumbar disc replacement; we explain why fans should temper expectations for a Genesis Invitational appearance.
