👋 {{readername | Hey golf fans}},
The PGA Tour’s bold new vision has already divided the pros. Some are concerned that it might impact their home tournaments. Amid this, Rory McIlroy is the latest to join that conversation but squarely puts the blame on LIV. Meanwhile, Scottie Scheffler admitted a bitter truth, and a PGA Tour pro’s quirky move caught the attention of fans. We’ll cover all that and also share two updates straight from the U.S. Open.
Let’s get started…
The Ulsterman is the latest to question the PGA Tour’s problematic vision, though he also places some blame on LIV Golf.
Your Shampoo Is Making Your Hair Thinner. Use This Instead.
Most shampoos strip the scalp. SLS, salt, parabens — the standard formula that cleans your hair while quietly working against it. If you've noticed thinning and haven't changed your shampoo, that's where to start.
Particle Hair-Thickening Shampoo is SLS-free, salt-free, and paraben-free. It doesn't just clean — it rebuilds, from root to tip, with a science-backed formula that makes hair look and feel fuller over time. Thinning hair can quietly take a toll on how you feel every day. This is the switch that fixes it. Try it risk-free with a 30-day money-back guarantee.
A recap of our most-read stories of the week.
Scottie Scheffler has made 11 starts since his victory at the American Express, but another trophy still eludes him. So, tell us...
