2014 FedExCup champion Billy Horschel shares some insights on how he uses a cut and draw to work the ball both ways to control his placement.

The odds of the same person making two holes-in-one on the same day are astronomical. 67-million to 1 to be exact.

And while Edgartown Golf Club PGA Professional Corey McAlarney was just trying to lend a helping hand to his members during the 66th Annual Reading Room Golf Tournament, he ended up pulling off the near impossible.

McAlarney was stationed at the Par-3, 157-yard eighth hole during the event and was available to be used for a mulligan should a member be unhappy with their own attempt.

With a light rain falling and wind gusts of 20-25 miles per hour, the hole played upwards of 190 yards and created quite the challenge for the golfers.

In this video, Neil Tappin and Joel Tadman ask how often should you upgrade your driver? This is a question many golfers consider, especially as equipment manufacturers produce new models that promise even performance than the previous generation. How much of a difference do these technical developments make to the performance and if you choose not to invest in a new driver for a few years, what exactly are you giving up on? These are the questions that Neil and Joel look to answer in this video.

The most exciting thing about any Major Championship is the final round on Sunday. From immense cloud coverage to a jam-packed leaderboard, TPC Harding Park was full of exciting moments down the stretch.

One of the most interesting things about Sunday’s leaderboard was the variety of swing differences amongst the top players. Whether it was Matt Wolff’s starting trigger move, Bryson Dechambeau’s need for speed with the driver, Dustin Johnson’s bowed left wrist, or Collin Mirakawa's stellar iron play at age 23.

It leads many to wonder — what made all of these players strong competitors with such different swings? The answer is simple... impact.

No matter what unique differences each top player showed Sunday, they all had a consistent position at impact.

In this video, Joel Tadman tests and compares the new TaylorMade P770, P7MC and P7MB irons against the outgoing P760 irons currently in his bag! The new P-Series irons have already found their way into the bag of Rory McIlroy, so we were keen to see how all three of the irons performed. We collected dry ball data on the Foresight Sports GCQuad launch monitor before testing them on the range at West Hill Golf Club to assess feel, sound, ball flight and workability.

When Jon Rahm became world No. 1 this weekend with his three-stroke triumph at the Memorial Tournament presented by Nationwide, it should have surprised no one.

Rahm has been a world-class player since his junior days, holding the top spot in the World Amateur Golf Ranking for a record 60 weeks. Now he’s a four-time winner on the PGA TOUR and currently eighth in the FedExCup standings. It was only a matter of time until he reached an achievement that even his fellow Arizona State Sun Devil Phil Mickelson has yet to reach: the top spot in the Official World Golf Ranking.

With more eyes trained on the top dog in professional golf – he’s just the second Spanish player to hold that distinction; the first was his idol, Seve Ballesteros -- it’s a good time to dive into the equipment that he uses. Rahm's bag is actually a very interesting case study, and it's in the simplicity that makes it work. Although the optics of Rahm's bag have changed a bit from time to time, the foundations have remained constant since his college days.

GolfWRX chatted with Chris Trott, Director of Global Sports Marketing for TaylorMade, about the TM staffer’s sticks.

Tiger Woods was back on the PGA Tour for the first time in five months Thursday and saw Muirfield Village like never before.

It was practically empty.

Woods opened with a 10-foot birdie and there was silence. He finished with a 15-foot birdie for a 1-under 71, leaving him five shots behind Tony Finau in the Memorial, and he walked to the side of the green and stood with Rory McIlroy, chatting briefly before they nudged their elbows toward one another without touching.

It’s a different world, Woods keeps saying.

It was a reasonable return.
