Unbelievable but true:

R1: 129th in SG: Putting
R2: 36th
R3: 6th
R4: 3rd w/9 birdies
Total: T13

Years ago I wrote a sports media column at the Washington Post in part about how Brent Musburger was missed on "The NFL Today" after he was fired. The Los Angeles Times picked up a snippet of it in their Page 2 notes column. @cbssports.bsky.social @nfltoday.bsky.social

This is great news for the PGA Tour - and a bit of a rarity with the recent exodus of so many longtime title sponsors.
Valspar is sticking around till at least 2030.

Ludvig Aberg's Masters odds are an enticing 16-1 at the DraftKings sportsbook. If you like him at Augusta - and why wouldn't you? - grab that now because his odds only will get shorter. And in fact they already are shorter elsewhere.

Harry Hall WDing from the Farmers Insurance Open is a surprise/gamble in that he's fifth in the Aon Next 5 or whatever they call it. That would get him into Pebble next week but now there's a chance he gets overtaken. Mark Hubbard is less than 8 points back.

None of the Q school grads have gotten into the Sony field. Five of them are alternates. The sixth, Takumi Kanaya, isn't there. Gonna be a long season for these guys and many other lower-tier guys.

I set a new world* record of 54 minutes 15 seconds in the Holly Jolly 10K run in Santa Monica, beating my previous best time by more than one minute. Finished 18th out of the 76 10K runners. Wanted to finish in the 53s but, oh well, maybe next time.

Another 10K in the books over the weekend at the Camarillo YMCA Holiday Fun Run (or something like that). 57 flat. Not my best time but ninth overall among the 20 10K runners (280 runners in the 5K). Will give it a go again somewhere next month.

This is not your father's Hero World Challenge. It used to be an A-list event.
-Only 3 of the top-10 OWGR
-More than half the field outside the top-20
-No Tiger Woods
-No McIlroy, Schauffele, Hovland, Morikawa, Spieth, Finau, Homa
-With apologies to Aaron Rai but ... Aaron Rai?
