Golf This Week: June 30 – July 6, 2025
Alright, so here’s the scoop on golf happenings this week. It’s kind of a mixed bag, really.
First up, you’ve got the PGA TOUR making its way to Illinois for the John Deere Classic at TPC Deere Run. Sounds fancy, right? Davis Thompson snagged the trophy last year. Seriously, winning even once is pretty mind-blowing. If you’re curious about who else has won this gig before, there’s a list somewhere. Honestly, I never keep track of those things.
Then there’s the DP World Tour—yeah, used to be called the European Tour. They’re hosting the BMW International Open. No idea what that’s like. Fast cars, maybe? But wait, the defending champ is Thriston Lawrencee. And if you want to deep dive into past winners, hit up that link I mentioned. It’s probably more interesting than it sounds.
Moving on to the LPGA, and they’re actually taking a break this week. Everyone needs a little downtime, right? Their next shindig is the Amundi Evian Championship in… well, France. Evian-les-Bains, to be precise. Bet it’s beautiful there. Ayaka Furue is the reigning queen over there—or champ, whatever you prefer. Another list of winners exists if you’re on a trivia quest.
Now, the PGA Tour Champions? Also off. They’re just lounging until the Dick’s Open in New York. Padraig Harrington won it last time. Padraig—a name that rolls off the tongue, don’t you think? Those lists are handy if you wish you were a walking encyclopedia.
Korn Ferry Tour? Sleeping in until July 11. They’ll be back at it with the Ascendant in Colorado. Hope they’re ready.
PGA TOUR Americas is swinging through Canada for the Explore NB Open from July 3 to 8. Already forgotten what I just said, but hey—a golf tournament in Canada in July sounds kind of nice.
The APGA? They’re chilling, no tours until mid-July at TPC Deere Run. What’s with everyone loving this Deere place?
Then there’s LIV—whatever that stands for—they’re off too. Andalucia’s next for them. Seems there’s a party delay?
TGL League? Also sitting this one out.
And that’s pretty much the round-up. If you’ll excuse the pun. If you’re into liking things, there’s a button for that. Madness, right?
