Today's Top 5 Mulligans — Tue 28 Jul 2026

The 3M Open is serving up a delightful little scene: a fresh-faced pro, one Jackson Koivun, is teetering on the edge of his first PGA Tour win, a solid three shots clear of everyone else. At a tender 21 and only three pro starts into his career, Koivun has clearly decided the whole "long, grinding apprenticeship" thing is for chumps.

Rory McIlroy, for all his world-class talent and trophy-hoarding tendencies, still gets the jitters on the first tee. You'd think after collecting enough shiny hardware to fill a small wing of a museum, the initial tee shot at a major would be a walk in the park.

Lucas Glover, a man who's already conquered the golf world six times over (which is, you know, a lot), apparently decided the putting green was no place for fancy footwear. During the final round of the 3M Open, in a moment that would make even a philosopher scratch their head, he ditched his shoes.

After a golf drought so long it made the Sahara look like a splash park, Jenny Shin finally broke through at the Women’s Scottish Open. We’re talking 10 years, two months, and 25 days of patiently waiting while, presumably, other golfers got to experience the novel sensation of actually winning something.

Every time a new set of clubs rolls off the production line, it’s a bit like a cheesy infomercial promising to turn your 20-handicap into a scratch golfer overnight. But Ping’s G440 family? They’re stepping onto the tee box with something that actually feels a bit different.
