NFL Legend Eyes PGA Tour Spot Via Q-School
Golf’s hottest takes, exclusive interviews, and never-before-heard historical moments handpicked for you thrice a week in a one-of-a-kind newsletter! - by EssentiallySports
👋 Hey Golf Fans,
Finally! The Solheim Cup week is here. Isn’t it great seeing golf truly coming back into action? And, with the anticipation, controversy is back too. Ahead of the tournament, captain Stacy Lewis stirred the pot quite a bit. Nah, the two-time major champion hasn’t issued any veiled threat to her rivals. Rather, Lewis wants to change the Presidents Cup format.
Now, Arnold Palmer, whose birthday we celebrated in our special Monday edition, never had to think about it when he captained the team in 1996. But then again, the 1996 edition was a fiercely contested one. That, unfortunately, hasn’t been the case for the last couple of years. And the solution for that, as per Lewis, is a “blend” of the two sides of golf. Albeit unorthodox, her proposal is not wrong. You’ll see that she has stats backing her bold in today’s newsletter.
So, let’s get started…
