Clutch birdie. Championship composure. Complete dominance. Lottie Woad's ISPS Handa Women's Scottish Open victory delivered the kind of performance that announces a new star has arrived on the LPGA Tour.

The English sensation closed with a 4-under 68 at Dundonald Links to capture her maiden professional title by three strokes over Hyo Joo Kim… and it was her professional debut!

Her final total of 21-under 267 marked the most dominant debut since Rose Zhang's breakthrough in 2023. And like Zhang at the 2023 Mizuho Americas Open, Woad handled serious pressure with graceful ease.

Kim had fired seven birdies in 14 holes to pull level with the rookie midway through the final round. But champions respond under pressure. And Woad delivered exactly that. Back-to-back birdies at the 13th and 14th catapulted her back ahead.

And just watch how calmly she nailed this pin-hunting wedge shot, leaving even the commentators at a loss for words.

Kim eventually stumbled with consecutive bogeys on the 15th and 16th. From there, it was nothing but a well-deserved victory march for Woad.

This win places her in elite company. Only two, Beverly Hanson (1951) and Zhang (2023), sniffed victory on their pro debuts. Of course, it also validates the hype and reaffirms her championship pedigree. On top of that, she earned the $300,000 winner's check and a two-year exemption on Tour.

In just three weeks, Woad has gone from being a college golfer to an LPGA champ. Next week, the AIG Women's Open at Royal Porthcawl awaits—she had a T10 last year. And with momentum like this, who'd dare bet against back-to-back victories?

While Lottie Woad was delivering a timeless performance, the golf world quietly served up moments that make you shake your head and smile. Hole-in-ones, wholesomeness, and so much more. Here are five moments you probably missed this week:

Ace Race: Thorbjørn Olesen needed something special on Saturday to keep pace with Kurt Kitayama. How about an ace? The veteran Dane fired a 209-yard 6-iron that took one bounce and found home, as you can see here.

Weekend stroll: Rory McIlroy loves golf. When he is not playing, apparently, he is out there watching. Just like on Sunday, when the five-time major champion was found at the Senior Open Championship. And just watch how the fans responded!

Randomness: Patton Kizzire was this close to incurring a penalty. But his wayward shot found the floating 3M sponsor logo. One bounce later, and Kizzire now has one of the luckiest shots in golf history, like you’ll see below:

Pure Joy: Very rarely does it happen that the celebration matches the brilliance of a shot. And that was the case here. Tell us which was better: Sahith Theegala’s chip-in hole out, or his unfiltered reaction to it?

Hell yeah! Bubba Watson caught fire mid-round at LIV Golf UK. Twice, he used drivers from the fairway to reach the green. Result? Two eagles on the 10th and 13th—witness the pure wizardry with your own eyes.

These moments remind us why we love this game. And with FedEx Cup playoffs approaching, golf keeps delivering the unexpected.

Kurt Kitayama, en route to his 3M Open victory, delivered a masterclass in fairway bunker play. This precise dart from deep sand is the kind of shot that makes you drool. But most amateurs either skull it over the green or chunk it into the lip. And that’s because most of us don’t do three things that major champs do!

Start with Tiger's setup, progress to Padraig's tempo control, then master Jack's forward position. These techniques work for any skill level, and if you think you’re ready to take things further, try this:

Bryson DeChambeau probably just delivered the most wholesome golf content of the year. Another Break 50 Series episode… but with Adam Sandler. And a Happy Gilmore tutorial!

Let’s be honest, every one of us, at least once, tried the Gilmore swing. And failed.

Turns out winning majors doesn’t make you any better at it. The Scientist attempted that iconic run-up swing. But not without a little help from the man himself. Watch Sandler coach Bryson like he is fixing his swing before a major championship.

And Adam's still got it, too! Bryson's reaction says it all as he watches the ball fly forever. The LIV star called the day ‘the most electric round of his life’. And after watching these two having a blast together, you would agree!
