Incredible Michael Block drama, young American streak continues on PGA Tour and Joaquin Niemann does it again
Go ahead and tell everyone you know that American golf is officially on the up and up.The final three events on the PGA Tour schedule always feel like a slog given the weak-ish fields and being bookended by The Open and the start of the FedEx Cup Playoffs, but all three being won by an American under the age of 25 made for a mighty enjoyable close to the regular season.Michael Brennan was the man responsible for extending the young American streak to three with his victory at the Wyndham Championship, and did so in style with a final round 64.Over in Scotland, Michael Block did some things during the final round of the Staysure PGA Seniors Championship. It's preposterous that Block is making headlines in August 2026 while playing on the European Senior Tour, but it would be downright irresponsible not to break down what may (or may not) have transpired with the king of content across the pond.Joaquin Niemann won another LIV Golf event, bringing his total to nine titles on the breakaway circuit.
