Tiger’s measuring stick event, the PIP’s fine print and LIV golfers in majors

  • by

The holiday weekend didn’t have a ton of golf—but Cam Smith won in his native Australia. On this page you’ll find links to Bob Harig’s coverage of what December has in store, and more.

Tiger Woods is pictured at the 2017 Hero World Challenge.

The Hero World Challenge is an easygoing event in an easygoing place for a handful of the PGA Tour’s elite, but Bob Harig writes how for Tiger Woods the event has long served as a measuring stick for the state of his game.

The winners of the $100 million Player Impact Program were announced last week, with Tiger Woods the winner again. There are strings around the money including a playing component, and Bob Harig explains the fine print and why the man pictured above will make sure Tiger will get his full payout.

The 2023 majors will be intriguing on so many levels, but how many LIV Golf players will be in the fields? The Official World Golf Ranking plays a big part in that with its year-end top 50, and Bob Harig looks at who is on that bubble and what the majors status is for several top LIV players.

The 2023 LIV Golf schedule isn’t official yet, but Bob Harig is hearing some things about where the first event may be along with more details.

Bob Harig’s weekly Fore! Things always have a few choice nuggets, and this week’s includes some world ranking factoids including a spot that Sergio Garcia hasn’t seen in a very, very long time.
