Michael Brennan’s historic stats, Mike Ditka’s legendary golf videos and a slept-on buddies trip destination

Wake Forest standout Michael Brennan is on a historic trajectory in golf, securing his third PGA Tour victory of the year at the Baycurrent Classic in Japan. The 24-year-old, who had struggled to crack the top 10 in his first 22 starts, has now won two of his last five tournaments, joining an elite group as the fourth-fastest player to reach three wins since 1970—trailing only Tiger Woods, Collin Morikawa, and Jerry Pate.

Meanwhile, rising star Blades Brown capped an impressive season on the Korn Ferry Tour by finishing ninth in the standings, despite splitting time between tours. Though he fell short in the Korn Ferry Tour Championship, Brown’s polished game and potential for greatness continue to draw attention, even as Jackson Koivun’s emergence has shared some of the spotlight.

For golf enthusiasts planning a weekend getaway, Turning Stone in upstate New York remains a hidden gem. The resort, featuring three top-tier courses—Atunyote, Shenendoah, and Kaluhyat—all ranked among *Golf Digest*’s 100 Greatest Public Courses, offers a seamless experience with its newly expanded amenities, including The Crescent hotel and Salt restaurant.

The property’s scenic fall foliage and proximity (under a four-hour drive for many) make it an ideal destination for a quick, high-quality buddies trip—one that still flies under the radar despite its consistent quality.
