Jackson Koivun won the 3M Open on July 26 at 25-under 259, three shots ahead of Scottie Scheffler, in his third start as a pro. Three months after Auburn, Brandt Snedeker made the 21-year-old a captain's pick for Team USA at Medinah, September 24-27. Koivun is 48th on the U.S. points list and 66th in the world. Ben Griffin, 8th in points, and J.J. Spaun, 10th, were left home. FanDuel still has USA -400, Internationals +350, and a tie +1000. Kalshi's last verified pre-picks print is USA 81 percen
FanDuel still has Team USA -400, Internationals +350, and a tie +1000 for the Presidents Cup at Medinah from September 24-27. Kalshi's last verified print before Tuesday's picks was USA 81 percent, Team World 18 percent, and a tie 4 percent. Brandt Snedeker set four-ball for Thursday. Jackson Koivun is on the U.S. team three months after Auburn; there is no posted Koivun session price, so the four-ball-point board is a yes-or-no until a book prints one. Tape the 3M Open win, not another roster d
Golf Digest posted the 24 players headed to Medinah. Captain Brandt Snedeker and International captain Geoff Ogilvy finalized six picks apiece on September 1, joining six automatic qualifiers on each side. Matches are September 24-27 at Medinah Country Club. This is a field page, not a restack of this morning's Malbon/Koivun item.
Golf Digest posted that Tiger Woods had his driver's license suspended for five years after a plea deal in his DUI case from a car accident earlier this year. Martin County reporting on September 2, 2026, says Woods pleaded no contest after the original DUI-related charge was reduced, and that Judge Darren Steele imposed a five-year license suspension with no exceptions. Fine amounts and jail-warning wording beyond the tweet are sourced to that reporting.
Malbon posted that Jackson Koivun is headed to the Presidents Cup with Team USA. The claim is sourced to that brand post. Independent roster confirmation is not in this draft.
Golf Digest used last week's four rounds at East Lake to project how the 2026 Tour Championship would have played as match play. The piece says it is not a perfect replication of what will happen in 2028. Also in this pack: Scheffler's winning WITB, TPI on Michael Brennan generating vertical force early, five training takeaways from Scheffler's trainer, MyGolfSpy's Best Wedges of 2026 dashboard, and a quote-tweet asking for Tiger Woods' career earnings adjusted for inflation after SportsCenter s
Luke Kerr-Dineen, Golf Digest Game Plan, uses Corey Jez and Tour IQ ShotLink data to show that shot patterns are a bell curve, not an even oval. Pros still aim away from real hazards. When a short-sided miss is a pretend penalty, they fire closer to tucked pins so most shots finish nearer the hole. This is instruction, not a 2026 Tour Championship result.
Ryan Mouque says the best thing he did for his game was to stop caring, and his scores improved. He also posted a Justin Rose-style chipping drill: short and sharp, hinge up, thumbs down, stop around waist high. Skratch posted a clip to protect Johnson Wagner at all costs. Instruction and color, not tour results.
The Financial Times reported that LIV Golf is preparing for a bankruptcy filing in September. The tweet card says the challenger golf league is negotiating a funding package with BC Partners for a slimmed-down circuit. This is a report of preparations, not a confirmed court filing.
Scottie Scheffler won the Tour Championship. He said the season is over and he earned a beer. Tiger Woods marked three wins, five runner-ups, and No. 1. Rules officials said Viktor Hovland did not appear to touch the sand. Golf Digest on which stats matter. The Golf Engineer on the driver sweet spot.
Luke Kerr-Dineen walks Grober's Yale lecture and Novosel's Tour Tempo: the ratio holds even when Rahm is short and Singh is long. Smooth means even, not low-and-slow. This is a range tape, not East Lake news, and it does not touch the 2028 format collection.
Scottie Scheffler won the Tour Championship at East Lake. He shot 66 on Sunday and finished 16-under. Viktor Hovland was second at 13-under. Ryan Gerard was third at 12-under. Official PGA TOUR posts first.
The 2028 Tour Championship format is a PGA TOUR video, not a published spec. A USGA clip covers red versus yellow penalty areas. Two speed videos show Brennan's 120-degree shoulder turn and a Titleist ground-force drill. You cannot set starting scores from a like.
A $13 million pledge and a guarantee for events moving to the Challenger Series are the Tour's stated charity protection as it overhauls the schedule before 2028.
The Tour Championship starts everyone at even par, ending the staggered-score era. Scottie Scheffler's season-long lead becomes seeding rather than strokes.
