What’s going on here? The toughest track on the Open rota has turned into a pitch and putt course. Calm conditions and low scores were prevalent in Round 3 with eagles (14) and birdies (288) flying everywhere as the 79 players that made the cut averaged 69.34; the lowest average round in Open history at Carnoustie. Only one eagles had been carded during the three previous Opens at Carnoustie. Just 24 players shot over par (71) on Saturday. A ...

Monmouth Park and the state of New Jersey have been making more headlines since the Supreme Court decision repealed the Professional Amateur Sports Protection Act (PASPA). And the momentum keeps building as the track begins its second month of legal sports betting following its June 14 start.

Walking through the convention halls at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas during the World Series of Poker is quite an experience. Getting inside the ropes next to the poker players and tables to watch and record the hands as they unfold is a privilege I've experienced as a credentialed media member.
But if you can’t attend the WSOP, poker fans can enjoy the Main Event broadcast coverage on ESPN and live stream on PokerGO. This past weekend, the Main Event final table ...

Carnoustie a Best Course - Open Prep Events Including Scottish Open
Carnoustie Golf Links ranks among the best courses in Scotland, and as I mentioned in my Open prep Countdown to Carnoustie, the championship course is regarded by most as the toughest test.

That included 89 and 83 by 19-year old Sergio Garcia, who was making his Open debut and cried like a little boy after being overmatched at the historic championship venue at Carnoustie Golf Links, the hardest links course on the Open rota.
