John Daly II, the son of two-time major champion John Daly, won his Round of 64 match on Wednesday, outlasting Cooper Claycomb, 1 up, at The Olympic Club’s Lake Course in San Francisco, Calif.
Daly, who failed to advance to match play in 2024, won just one hole on Wednesday – the par-4 11th with a birdie. He had a chance to go 1 up early with a 6-foot par putt on No. 6 but burned the edge of the hole and tied it with a bogey.
It's been about five years since Callaway Golf released an X Forged iron model. And improvements to the 2025 X Forged irons make this legendary series better than ever before. But Callaway also double-downed on X Forged with an entirely new model, the X Forged Max irons. X Forged Max features the same one-piece 1020 carbon steel forged material but is designed in a players distance construction.
I hit the 2025 Callaway X Forged and X Forged Max irons at a Club Champion fitting a few weeks back and can tell you I was incredibly impressed with both models after just a few first swings. I used the same Dynamic Gold MID 115 shafts in both irons for testing. And there are some performance differences between the two models that I'm going to tell you about in this comparative review.
Preston Stout fired a championship-low round of 5-under 65 on Tuesday morning to help himself earn medalist honors at The Olympic Club in San Francisco, Calif. The freshly-minted Walker Cupper paired his round today with a 3-under 68 on Monday to find himself atop the leader board.
Playing off the No. 1 tee on the Lake Course, the 21-year-old from Dallas, Texas navigated the toughest portion of the golf course and went out in 2-under, birdieing hole Nos. 7 and 9 before dropping a shot at the par-4 12th. With his head coach Alan Bratton on the bag, the Oklahoma State Cowboy quickly made up for it with a deuce on the ensuing par 3, before stringing together three more birdies on hole Nos. 15-17.

Winning a national championship for any athlete is an exhilarating feeling. Megha Ganne experienced such elation in 2024 when the Holmdel, N.J., native helped the powerhouse Stanford University women’s golf program collect its third NCAA title.
But it wasn’t until a sun-splashed and breezy Sunday at Bandon Dunes Golf Resort that the 21-year-old got to experience such a feat as an individual.
A lightweight driver shaft should in theory generate more distance. They're easier to swing and allow you to swing faster to create more swing speed than heavier shafts. The problem with lightweight driver shafts (for me at least) is there's often some other accompanying loss of feel, control, or accuracy. Until now.
The new Fujikura Ventus VeloCore+ White is the first lightweight driver shaft I've played that checks all the boxes for me. Increased swing speed and distance? You bet. But Ventus White also delivers consistent shot patterns and doesn't disrupt my timing and tempo. I installed the Ventus White into my Ping G440 LST driver and I'll give you some comparisons in feel, launch, and spin to the Ventus VeloCore+ Blue shaft (which I play in a different driver) in this review as well.
