Record Breaking Scenes in Bermuda

The Swede, Alex Noren, stole the show at the Butterfield Bermuda Championship, firing a 61 in calm conditions at Port Royal. With a record-breaking 11 birdies and sitting at 10-under.

Noren expressed his satisfaction, saying, "It was quite easy conditions, and there's a lot of wedges out there. But I improved the wedges a lot coming from Japan, where I struggled with them. So I'm very, very happy. It was great to get a 10 under. It was a long time ago I had a really low round."

Adam Long just carved his name into PGA TOUR history by hitting 69 consecutive fairways. Yep, you read it right, 69! That's more hits than your favorite Spotify playlist.

The previous record was 59, set back in 1992 by Brian Claar. Long said, "It's something I'll be able to say forever." This isn't just a stat; it's the stuff trivia nights dream about.

Long finished the round at 5-under 66, climbing the leaderboard and getting closer to a top-125 spot in the FedExCup standings. This could be his ticket to a full status for the 2024 PGA TOUR season.

Fusion of Golf and Gaming: A Sneak Peek into TGL’s Virtual Arena

TGL's inaugural event, slated for January 9 in a custom-built $50 million arena in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, aims to revolutionize golf spectatorship. Boasting an 800,000-pound green on a 200,000-pound turntable, a 4K screen- rivalling those seen at Taylor Swift concerts, TGL promises a golfing spectacle like never before.

In a soundstage testing area on the back lot of Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida, swings are not met by the open sky but by a colossal screen, a canvas spanning 64 by 46 feet.

And yes, that’s real grass. Bermuda grass to be specific, standing tall at a cozy 2 inches.

The green—it's not your average putting surface. Nope, it's a bit of an engineering feat. Imagine a spinning platform, supported by circles of steel, powered by airbags - don’t worry I can’t imagine it either so here’s a video of this crazy technology!

As the countdown to January 9 begins, the golfing world holds its breath, wondering if TGL will redefine the sport or merely create a new fad. Either way, the fusion of golf and technology has already produced an arena that is, in itself, a work of art.

'The Netflix Cup' Unveils Thrilling Matchups for Vegas Showdown

In a high-octane collision of wheels and irons, Netflix is gearing up for its groundbreaking live sports event, "The Netflix Cup," set to unfold at the Wynn Golf Club in Las Vegas.

The streaming giant recently dropped the deets on the game-day matchups, and it's shaping up to be a sports and entertainment spectacle like no other.

Buckle up, folks, as British-Belgian speedster Lando Norris and PGA TOUR pro Rickie Fowler join forces against the dynamic duo of Spanish racing maestro Carlos Sainz and golf sensation Justin Thomas.

On the other side of things, Thai-British speedster Alex Albon teams up with pro Max Homa to take on French racing ace Pierre Gasly and PGA TOUR star Collin Morikawa.

Format? It's an eight-hole showdown, peppered with surprise challenges. The winners of each matchup will face off in a playoff.

Adding a dash of humor and lively commentary to the mix, the event will be hosted by none other than the hilarious Bert Kreischer, joined by PGA TOUR player Joel Dahmen, sports host Kay Adams, and NFL legend Marshawn Lynch.

From the adrenaline-fueled "Formula 1: Drive to Survive" to the golf-centric "Full Swing," Netflix is taking sports fandom to new heights. The event comes hot on the heels of the F1 Vegas Grand Prix, adding an extra layer of excitement for fans of both racing and golf.

You can catch it live on Netflix starting at 6 p.m. ET on Tuesday, Nov. 14.
