👋 {{readername | Hey golf fans}},

Good evening. Here's your nightly roundup from across the golf world. Tonight, we're covering the unfortunate withdrawal from the KPMG Women's PGA Championship, along with some of our most-read stories, including the PGA Tour's helping hand in keeping Rory McIlroy out of trouble.

Particle Hair-Thickening Shampoo is SLS-free, salt-free, and paraben-free.

This is the switch that fixes it. Try it risk-free with a 30-day money-back guarantee.
