Chelsea Dantoniom a new assistant pro at Quail Hollow Club and a former tour player, gives Golfweek a course tour and some insider perspective.
Chelsea Dantonio knows what it's like to play golf with her living on the line, and she's thrilled to now be working as an assistant professional at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina. She arrived in that role in October of 2024, just in time to watch the club gear up for the 2025 PGA Championship.
A native of Lancaster, New York, near Buffalo and a graduate of Winthrop University in South Carolina, Dantonio was selected as an All-American Scholar three times, and she was on the Big South All-freshmen team in 2015-16. Twice she was the Big South Co-Golfer of the Week. Having turned pro after graduation, her biggest victory came at the 2024 Tennessee Women's Open Championship. Dantonio held status on the Epson Tour and played a handful of events in 2023 and 2024.
Dantonio played 18 with Golfweek's Jason Lusk at Quail Hollow, then sat to discuss her new role at Quail Hollow Club and what's it like to see the club ramp up for hosting the PGA Championship.

Yankees fall flat again in brutal loss to Phillies as they hold their breath on Aaron Judge
Access the Yankees beat like never before Join Post Sports+ for exciting subscriber-only features, including real-time texting with Greg Joyce about the inside buzz on the Yankees. Try it free With Aaron Judge out of the lineup in another ominous sign for the crashing Yankees, they didn't do nearly enough to pick up their suddenly banged-up captain and offensive linchpin. While Judge underwent an MRI for an elbow issue Saturday, the Yankee bats mostly were throttled without him until a late Giancarlo Stanton homer in a 9-4 loss to the Phillies at the Stadium to fall to 3-5 since the All-Star break and 14-23 since June 13. Imported third baseman Ryan McMahon went 1-for-3 with two strikeouts and a walk in his pinstriped debut after he was acquired Friday from the MLB-worst Rockies. 'They brought me in to play third base and to play baseball. That's something I feel confident in,' McMahon said before the game. 'So I'm gonna go out there and try to do the best that I can and do whatever the team asks me to do to try to help. 4 Marcus Stroman and the Yankees took a lopsided loss to the Phillies on July 26, 2025. Jason Szenes / New York Post 4 Ryan McMahon reacts after he strikes out swinging during the fourth inning on Saturday. Robert Sabo for NY Post 'I think I'm more excited to just be a part of this lineup. From the other side, you look over at the Yankee lineup and it's intimidating.' The Bombers' offense looks far less intimidating, of course, without Judge's presence. Phillies lefty Ranger Suarez shut them down over 5 2/3 innings of one-run ball. CHECK OUT THE LATEST MLB STANDINGS AND YANKEES STATS Yanks starter Marcus Stroman had pitched to a 3.00 ERA over his previous four outings, but he coughed up four runs over the first 3 2/3 innings, beginning with an RBI single by J.T. Realmuto in the first and a solo homer to right by Bryce Harper in the third for an early 2-0 hole. Stroman then lost the strike zone and walked four batters in the fourth, including one to No.9 hitter Johan Rojas with the bases loaded to force in a run. Trea Turner made it 4-0 on an infield out, and Stroman was pulled for righty Yerry de los Santos before he could complete the frame. 4 Allan Winans of the New York Yankees reacts after giving up a home run during the seventh inning. Robert Sabo for NY Post 4 Edmundo Sosa of the Philadelphia Phillies celebrates with Max Kepler of the Philadelphia Phillies after they both score on Sosa's home run during the seventh inning. Robert Sabo for NY Post McMahon, who led the National League with 127 strikeouts before the trade, came up with two runners on in the bottom half. He was whiffed by Suarez for a second straight at-bat to start his Yankee career, but Jasson Dominguez got them on the board with an RBI single to center. Turner drove in another run for the Phils with a double to right against de los Santos in the sixth. The Phillies tacked on four more runs against Allan Winans one inning later for a 9-1 game, including a two-run blast by Edmundo Sosa.

Harper and Schwarber spark the Phillies to a 9-4 win over the reeling Yankees, who await Judge news
NEW YORK (AP) — Bryce Harper homered deep into the right-field bleachers and Kyle Schwarber hit a two-run double after New York's 10th error in five games, sparking the Philadelphia Phillies to a 9-4 win Saturday as the reeling Yankees awaited test rests on the right elbow of captain Aaron Judge. Trea Turner drove in two runs and Edmundo Sosa also homered for the Phillies, who opened a 9-1 lead. Philadelphia started the day a half-game behind the NL East-leading New York Mets. Schwarber had six RBIs and Turner was 6 for 11 as Philadelphia outscored New York 21-9 in the first two games of the three-game series. Ranger Suárez (8-4) allowed one run and seven hits in 5 2/3 innings with eight strikeouts and one walk, throwing a season-high 108 pitches. Judge was out of the Yankees' starting lineup for just the second time this season. His elbow has been bothering him since a throw Tuesday at Toronto, and manager Aaron Boone said the two-time AL MVP was sent for a scan Saturday morning. New York began the day a season-high 5 1/2 games behind AL East-leading Toronto and dropped to 3-5 since the All-Star break. Schwarber doubled after second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. bobbled Turner's potential inning-ending, double-play grounder in the seventh, Chisholm's 12th error this season. Ryan McMahon went 1 for 3 with a walk in his Yankees debut, a day after the third baseman was acquired from Colorado for a pair of pitching prospects. Sosa hit a two-run homer in the seventh off Allan Winans and Giancarlo Stanton hit a two-run drive against Daniel Robert in the bottom half. Key plays Sosa left with a bruised back after the third baseman was elbowed by left fielder Brandon Marsh in a collision while catching Chisholm's seventh-inning popup. New York is 21-28 following a 35-20 start. Up next New York LHP Carlos Rodón (10-7, 3.10) and Philadelphia RHP Zack Wheeler (9-3, 2.39) start Sunday's series finale. ___

Yankees Pushed To Steal $122 Million All-Star Trade Target From Dodgers
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers are reportedly pursuing a trade for St. Louis Cardinals star Brendan Donovan this year. Donovan has a few years of team control left on his deal, so he's not the most likely trade candidate, but the Cardinals could explore trades if there are teams willing to pay a steep price. FanSided's Christopher Kline recently suggested the Yankees should aggressively target Donovan in a deal to prevent the Dodgers from landing the Cardinals' All-Star utilityman. Donovan is under contract for two more years after this season, and Spotrac projects him to sign for $122 million. ST LOUIS, MISSOURI - JULY 24: Brendan Donovan #33 of the St. Louis Cardinals hits a three-run home run against the San Diego Padres in the second inning at Busch Stadium on July 24, 2025... ST LOUIS, MISSOURI - JULY 24: Brendan Donovan #33 of the St. Louis Cardinals hits a three-run home run against the San Diego Padres in the second inning at Busch Stadium on July 24, 2025 in St Louis, Missouri. More"According to Katie Woo of The Athletic, the Yankees aren't the only team interested in the St. Louis second baseman," Kline wrote. "She lists the Los Angeles Dodgers as another club with 'known interest,' handing the Yankees a grade-A excuse to push all their chips in for the 28-year-old. "Is Donovan the solution to what ails New York? Probably not, at least not completely. The Yankees could use another solid infielder, but pitching depth is a more pressing concern. And yet, the most pressing concern might just be keeping the Dodgers at bay. That goes for the league at large, but especially for the Yankees, who are probably hoping for a chance at revenge in the upcoming World Series." It wouldn't make too much sense for the Yankees to go after Donovan now. They have Ryan McMahon and Jazz Chisholm Jr. under contract, so adding another controllable infielder wouldn't make much sense, plus there's a logjam in the outfield at the moment. It's also unlikely the Cardinals cut ties with Donovan unless a suitor is willing to overpay by quite a bit. If the Dodgers are willing to do that, there won't be anything the Yankees can do to stop it. More MLB: Yankees Land Trio Of Stars In 7-Player Blockbuster Hypothetical Trade
