The Gold Standard • At PING, it's not just business, it's personal. Always has been. Also true for the players who play them.

Still Getting Better • Last year, PING produced a line of drivers and wedges that many considered to be their best ever. So, of course, they went to work to improve them.

Alone on the course, I decided to play white ball versus yellow ball. I holed out everything and kept score for each ball. Can I enter both scores for handicap purposes?

No More Mr. Nice Guy • IS IT ENOUGH TO BE THE MOST LIKABLE PLAYER ON THE PGA TOUR? AS YEARS PASSED WITHOUT A TOUR VICTORY, TOMMY FLEETWOOD HAD TO WONDER.

Five Stark Lessons On How to Be Major • Maja continues, like us all, to get better every day. Here's how she and her coach Joe Hallett work on each facet of her game (remember: change is good) to grind out victories.

Your Ball Here • Madeira isn't the first place that comes to mind when you think golf, and why would it? You probably haven't a clue where Madeira is. But the remote island paradise is catching fire as a tourist hot spot. And a new course set to open there later this year, on cliffs breathtakingly high above the Atlantic, might just put it on the map for golfers too.

I DON'T THINK THE HEAVY S TUFF'S GONNA COME DOWN FOR QUITE A WHILE. • You've got to hand it to JOSH SIMPSON. A couple of rounds a week would gas the average golfer. This guy? By mid-December, he'd clocked 581 ROUNDS—ON 581 DIFFERENT COURSES—IN A YEAR. Absolutely nothing was going to stop him. And it didn't.
