Rory McIlroy and Quail Hollow have become almost automatic together. He won his first PGA Tour event there in 2010, and since then no one has come close to matching his dominance at the course. With the way Quail Hollow rewards elite ball striking and driving, it’s hard to...

Hell yes!! Jhared Hack just won his first start on the India Pro Tour with a final round 59* to win by 5. Jhared has become a good friend, we helped raise money for him a few times. Truly one of the nicest people in golf. Won the 2007 Western Am, beat Rickie and DJ in match play. Turned pro at 18. Now 20 years into his pro career he is still grinding. Years of driver yips. It got so bad his friends would try to convince him to not play in Vegas money games, they would feel guilty taking his money. He refused. Found his way out of them. Battled back. A ton of mini-tour players have been broke, but no one as many times as Jhared. And no one plays better when he's broke. Has won mini-tour events multiple times when his cards were maxed and it was win or be done. Has played most every tour in the world. DP, PGA, KFT, Latin, Canada, Morocco, China, and now India. After he missed at 2nd stage here he told Mark Baldwin he was going to play in India. We thought he was crazy (we still think he's crazy) . He won 1st stage there, finished 2nd at final, now won in his first start. Gets $25,000 for the win, will get into 2 Hotel Planners events, possible a DP event. Moved up 2000 spots in OWGR. Talked to him this morning when I woke up, he was ecstatic. “Going to have some beers” before he gets on his way to next weeks event. I love it, every second of it. This is why I started this account, for wins like this at events no one has ever heard of. (* par 69, around 6,000 yards. A 59 to win is impressive regardless, but for full context)

Rory McIlroy has never minced his words when it comes to his views on LIV Golf. He was asked about it again yesterday, and in typical Rory fashion, after saying he was “too judgemental” with players that went, he then said “if you want to be the most competitive golfer you can be, this (PGA Tour) is the place to be. And if you don't want to play here, I think that says something about you.” Speaking after a 5 under par 67 to climb inside the top 10 of the Truist Championship, Rory spoke about his thoughts on the news that the Saudi Arabian PIF was pulling funding to the league: “Yeah, look, I think everyone sort of knows my views on LIV and where it stands in the game of golf. I don't think I need to rehash any of that. It's never been for me and, look, it doesn't mean that LIV is going to go away. They're going to go and try and find alternative investment, whatever that may look like. But when one of the wealthiest sovereign wealth funds in the world thinks that you're too expensive for them, that sort of says something (laughing).” He then was asked what a possible route back for players to the PGA Tour would look like: “It's a question if they do want to come back. Obviously we have seen the quotes over the last few days. And, you know, it seems like some of the guys, if -- again, it all depends on what happens to LIV. But if it is a scenario where they have the option to come back and play on the traditional tours, you know, I think Brian Rolapp has said anything that makes this Tour stronger, anything that makes the DP World Tour stronger, I think everyone should be open to that. That's just good business practice. “So, but again I think there's going to be a lot of sort of bridges to cross to get there, just because, you know, obviously the guys over there are under contract and if they are able to keep it going and get a schedule together next year, it seems like those guys are still going to play the majority of their golf on LIV, in whatever form it takes.” That was followed up with a question about whether he was surprised that LIV Golf players have been outspoken about not wanting to return to the PGA Tour: “Yeah, which is totally fine. Like, again, I think I've said at the start, I was probably too judgmental with the guys that went because I was seeing it from my point of view and maybe not seeing it from other points of view. But again, I'm not going to judge anyone for not wanting to play on the PGA Tour. “I don't know, you know, does that mean that they go play DP World Tour maybe; if that's a pathway, that would make the DP World Tour stronger, and I would be delighted with that, because that's my home Tour, at the end of the day. “But this is, if you want to be the most competitive golfer you can be, this (PGA Tour) is the place to be. And if you don't want to play here, I think that says something about you.” Rory is 4 shots behind Sungjae Im heading to the weekend at Quail Hollow. Rory McIlroy PGA TOUR Truist Championship
