The Ryder Cup! One of golf’s most anticipated and prestigious events to ever take place. It’s no wonder then that many in the golfing world, be it European or American, want to take part in the same. Sergio Garcia is no different, going ahead to pay the fines levied against him by the DP World Tour for joining and teeing off in LIV Golf events.

“The surgery went smoothly.” – wrote Tiger Woods on X back in September. What was he alluding to? Well, the golfer was hinting at the recent microdecompression procedure that helped him relieve the nerve impingement in his lumbar spine that had caused him back spasms over the season. But as we revisit his latest procedure, we can’t help but ask; Was his latest injury more severe than the one he had back in 2017 when he couldn’t even move his back and leg?

“Not how I envisioned things to turn out…” You can sense quite a bit of disappointment emanating from that one sentence. Sadly, that is how Jenny Shin felt just after the Toto Japan Classic. The reason? A dismal T61 finish at the LPGA Tour event. But she didn’t give up, for the golfer decided to take some time off and tee it up in her best condition at the CME Group Tour Championship. However, little did she know that fate had other plans! Fast forward to the LPGA Tour’s season finale.
