  • Rory McIlroy's Masters win gives him, at last, his seat at the table

    1 week ago | nytimes.com | Brendan Quinn

    AUGUSTA, Ga. - Four miles west of Augusta National Golf Club, in the Forest Hills section of town, where colonial revivals mix with brick Tudors, dusk settled in over a garden party Wednesday. It was the night before the 2025 Masters Tournament, and Nick Faldo and Ben Crenshaw sat on a back porch for a soiree typical for this time of year around here. Small, exclusive, deep-pocketed. A fireside chat between the two Masters winners was tabbed as the highlight of the evening.

  • The Masters showdown golf cannot wait for

    1 week ago | nytimes.com | Brendan Quinn

    AUGUSTA, Ga. - It's unclear what anyone has done to deserve this. Of all endings? This? This colossal collision of plotlines and personalities, of wild opposites and weird outcomes?

Such stages of life are the only inevitability we all have in common, right? Until death, at least. Fred Couples started feeling old more than 20 years ago. He had a hard time with it. By 2002, the 14-time winner on the PGA Tour had gone four years without a victory and was rarely in contention anymore. He felt like the game had raced by him.

  • Scottie Scheffler's air of inevitability is on display again at the Masters

    1 week ago | nytimes.com | Brendan Quinn

    AUGUSTA, Ga. - Scottie Scheffler dropped a bag of balls next to an Augusta National practice green Thursday afternoon. His opening round in the Masters wrapped an hour earlier. Now it was time to go to work. He jabbed a few Titleists out of the bag and looked at three flagsticks. He picked one. He hit a few nippy little chips, barely covering the top of the bunker in front of him, skipping and skidding to the hole.
