Report: Trump National Doral expected to return to PGA Tour schedule next year

Is Trump National Doral returning to the PGA Tour schedule? According to a Sports Business Journal report, which cited 'five industry sources,' yes. Trump National Doral, which is owned by the Trump Organization, is expected to host its first PGA Tour event in nine years, occupying next year's April 30-May 3 date between the Zurich Classic and Truist Championship. The addition means the CJ Cup Byron Nelson will move back on the calendar and precede the Charles Schwab Challenge, also in the Dallas area. The PGA Tour, which typically releases the following season's schedule in August, already declined comment to SBJ. Located about a half hour west of downtown Miami, Trump National Doral hosted the PGA Tour's Doral Open from 1962 to 2006 before the tournament became a World Golf Championships event from 2007 to 2016. The tournament was moved to Mexico City in 2017. During its absence from the PGA Tour schedule, Trump National Doral hosted a LIV Golf event in each of the league's first four seasons, including this year the week before the Masters. It is not, however, on LIV's 2026 schedule. Other schedules notes from the SBJ report, which ends with a full projected schedule, included the exclusion of the Mexico Open from the next year's schedule, as well as the swapping of spots between the WM Phoenix Open and AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, the latter of which will now be played the week before the Genesis Invitational.

Rory McIlroy smiling again after stunning 64 at Travelers Championship – but Scottie Scheffler is the man to catch

As Austin Eckroat shot 62 to set the pace at TPC River Highlands, the world number two made 108 feet of putts to share second in the clubhouse with US Ryder Cup skipper Keegan Bradley and Wydham Clark, who apologised for smashing lockers at Oakmont. 'It was good,' McIlroy said. 'I said yesterday, this is a nice tonic compared to last week in terms of it's a slightly more benign golf course and the penalty for missing isn't quite as severe. 'You can give yourself plenty of chances for birdies, which Keegan and I did today. 'Overall, it was a good start to the tournament, and I think when you're in a two-ball like that we can sort of feed off one another a little bit, too, that's nice, as well.' 'I've had a lot of highs and lows in my career, especially this year some lows,' said the former US Open champion, who missed the cut by a shot last week. 'I made a mistake that I deeply regret. I'm very sorry for what happened. 'But I'd also like to move on, not only for myself but for Oakmont, for the USGA, and kind of focus on the rest of this year and things that come up. I still want to try to make the Ryder Cup team.' Scottie Scheffler fired an eagle and seven birdies in an eight-under 62 to grab a share of the lead as he chases his fourth win in his last six starts. The world number one leapfrogged Rory McIlroy at the top of the FedEx Cup standings thanks to wins in the CJ Cup Byron Nelson, the US PGA, and the Memorial Tournament. ADVERTISEMENT Learn more He was also joint seventh in last week's US Open without playing his best golf and insists he drew confidence from his performance at Oakmont. 'The way I swung it the first couple rounds was pretty poor,' Scheffler said of the US Open following an impressive opening round at TPC River Highlands. 'I mean, I was not getting the ball in play. I don't know if you saw much of it, but it wasn't very pretty. 'But I was very proud of the way I stayed in the tournament, and I still gave myself a chance to win. 'That gives me a lot of confidence going forward that I could - especially on a golf course like Oakmont where you know you have to get the ball in play – and I wasn't able to do that in the beginning of the tournament. 'And to hang in there, flirt with the cut line on Friday, have a good finish to my round Friday, kind of bounce back, get myself back in the tournament to give myself an opportunity to win was I felt like pretty good. I gained some confidence from that. 'It's also just good reflection knowing that it's really important for me just to stay in it mentally, and I felt like last week was, oddly enough, as good as I've been mentally on the course throughout the season.' It was also a good day for Leona Maguire, who was just four shots off the lead after opening with a battling level par 72 in the KPMG Women's PGA in Texas. The Co Cavan star, who arrived at Fields Ranch East at PGA Frisco struggling for form on the back of four successive missed cuts, made two birdies and two bogeys in a solid round as Thailand's Jeeno Thitikul shot 68 to head Australia's Minjee Lee by one stroke. On the HotelPlanner Tour, Max Kennedy (23) planned a dip in the sea to cool off after scorching to a 10-under-par course record 60 to grab the lead in the Blot Play9 Golf in Brittany. The Royal Dublin rookie (23) made six birdies and two eagles in a career-low round at Bluegreen de Pléneuf Val André to lead by four strokes from England's James Morrison. 'Yeah, very happy,' said 72nd-ranked Kennedy, who can take a massive leap this week in the race for 20 DP World Tour cards. 'Obviously, a very nice round. I didn't miss a whole lot of shots, and it was even nicer to save a good par on the last. 'It would have been nice to give myself a chance on the last for a 59, but still, I'll take a 60.' While Kilkenny's Mark Power was joint fourth after a 66, Ballymena's Dermot McElroy followed an eagle two at his first hole with a quintuple bogey 10 at the next, the 11th, en route to an 84. Meanwhile, County Louth's Gavin Tiernan (19) used all his links experience to battle his way into the quarter-finals of the Amateur Championship at Royal St George's. But while he beat Belgium's Jarno Tollenaire by two holes before seeing off France's Gaspar Glaudas 3&2 to take his place in the last eight, he's not dreaming of the Masters place awarded to the champion just yet. 'No, I'm just taking it hole by hole, one shot at a time,' said the East Tennessee State University star, who will face Estonia's Richard Teder in the quarter-finals. 'That's been my motto this week, just one shot at a time.'

Scottie Scheffler makes Colonial charge but stumbles with back-nine bogeys

One day after squeaking into the weekend, Scottie Scheffler shot up the leaderboard at the Charles Schwab Challenge. Scheffler made seven birdies and an eagle in Saturday's third round but was hampered by three back-nine bogeys. He ended with a 6-under 64 and was T-7, six behind leaders Matti Schmid (68) and Ben Griffin (68). Advertisement "You are always going to hope to go play a perfect round," Scheffler said. "It basically never happens. I mean, three bogeys definitely hurts, especially when you are trying to chase, but overall I did some good things today. I'm definitely going to need to do more of the same tomorrow." The world No. 1 is vying for his third win in as many starts on Tour, a feat that hasn't been accomplished since Dustin Johnson in 2017. Scheffler shot 1-over 71 Friday and made the cut by a stroke. Going out early Saturday, he made four birdies over his inward stretch — as well as an otherworldly par from the junk at No. 7 — and then began his outward half birdie-eagle. At the par-5 11th, Scheffler hit his drive 334 yards and then hit his second shot from 303 yards to 14 feet. He rolled in the putt and was just three back at the time. "I got off to a really good start. Kind of a dream start when you are looking at pretty far back on Saturday. So, yeah, got off to the start that I definitely wanted to. Was in a great position after 11 holes," he said. "The golf course just gets challenging towards the end." Advertisement Scheffler's momentum was stymied by back-to-back bogeys. His tee shot on the par-4 12th landed in a fairway bunker and his escape hit the lip and only traveled 35 yards. He also found a bunker off the tee at the par-3 13th but splashed out to 5 feet, from where he missed. Overall, it was a better day on the greens for Scheffler than in Round 2, when he made less than 36 feet of putts and lost 2.5 strokes to the field. While he was still in the negative in strokes gained: putting Saturday, he made nearly double the length of putts. That included a 9-footer for birdie at the 16th and an 11-footer for birdie at the 17th. But a poor drive and a missed 6-foot putt led to bogey at the last. "Today I had to go out there and make a bunch of birdies, which I was able to do early in the round," he said. "I struggled a touch on the back nine, but overall I put up a decent score." In addition to last week's PGA Championship, Scheffler earned his first title of the season in the CJ Cup Byron Nelson, down the road from this week's event. Scheffler is trying to become the first person since Ben Hogan, in 1946, to win the Nelson and at Colonial in the same year.

Scottie Scheffler getting Tiger-like odds at U.S. Open; just don't try to Venmo him

Scottie Scheffler getting Tiger-like odds at U.S. Open; just don't try to Venmo him PITTSBURGH – Nine years ago, Scottie Scheffler made his major championship debut at the U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club. He missed the cut but left more confident than ever that he would be back. 'It definitely made me excited to get out here for real because it was a pretty fun week,' he said. Scheffler, 28, arrived at Oakmont for this week's playing of the 125th U.S. Open as a three-time major winner and world No. 1. He's won three times in his last four starts dating to the CJ Cup Byron Nelson and counts wins at the PGA Championship and a successful title defense at the Memorial during that stretch. Is he the man to beat? It sure looks that way. Scheffler is a prohibitive favorite to win at +275 (via BetMGM), which are the shortest odds entering the U.S. Open since Tiger Woods was +175 in 2009. And rightfully so. Scheffler has been on a Tiger-like run since earning his first victory at the 2022 WM Phoenix Open. With 16 Tour titles to his credit, Scheffler has delivered bettors a better return on investment than the Dow Jones, Nasdaq or S&P 500. If you bet $100 on him for each tournament he's played, you would have wagers of $7,900 and banked $13,105 in winnings for a tidy profit of $5,205, or 65.9 percent. No wonder that several gamblers looked up Scheffler's Venmo account and sent him a thank you. 'Maybe a couple bucks here or there,' he said. But it turns out that didn't happen nearly as much as the requests when he failed to deliver for his bettors. 'I think everybody hears from fans whether they have a financial benefit or anything in their outcome. That's why I had to get rid of my Venmo because I was either getting paid by people or people requesting me a bunch of money when I didn't win. It wasn't a good feeling,' he said. But it sure will feel good to notch another win and claim his national open for the first time.
