It's official: Jackson Koivun is turning pro.
He's a soft-spoken talent, but when it comes to his desire to be No. 1, he's never been quiet:

Incredible. He comes and kills a two month heater. He leaves and we witness the greatest comeback in basketball history

LIV Golf CEO Scott O'Neil was just asked on CNBC if he could guarantee LIV will play its next four events amid rumors PIF could pull money before end of season.
"What I can guarantee is a heck of a return if you come invest in this business."

The latest "50 Things That Changed Golf" podcast with @jamierkennedy is all about the funniest major, 2004 U.S. Open, Shinnecock. Bad decisions, disasters, heads rolling, absolute chaos. Plus, I lead by giving Jerry Kelly a horrendous southern accent: youtube.com/watch?v=oCyL_aCk…

So happy for @DaveShedloski to be honored at the @MemorialGolf with the tournament’s annual journalism award. The Ohio native has been covering the Memorial since 1986, the bulk of those years writing exceptionally for @GolfDigest. A pro’s pro. Well deserved Shed!

Bob Harig makes every newcomer in the media center feel like they belong, and when a writer needs someone in their corner, Bob's already there. A consummate pro at what he does, but more importantly, genuinely a good person
Being one of the subjects of a story is admittedly uneasy. But this is so incredibly nice of Michael Bamberger, one of the all time best in golf. Thanks to those who have reached out here and elsewhere. It is much appreciated. More to come.

Bob is not only a friend, he remains one of the most ethical, professional people in golf media. Millions of people read his stuff, and yet the dolts at SI who bought a fake AI video platform for $200 million (thus necessitating these job cuts) get to carry on unaffected.

In a world more full of phony influencers and contrived personalities, there is one last beacon for the real ones. His name is Roger Maltbie.
Followed Roger around at The Players for @TheAthletic. Learned about authenticity. nytimes.com/athletic/7319940…

The Thunder are the basketball equivalent of a free drop off a sprinkler head from rough. Golf rules-legal, cosmically unjust, somehow completely fine

.@BobHarig is the ultimate professional, covering golf for so long with great distinction. We worked together at ESPN before SI, and I learned a ton about how to cover golf from just watching Bob. He, @JohnSchwarb and the rest of the golf team will continue to do great work.
