Mark Melancon Adds To League-Leading Saves Count

Victor Caratini Comes Up Huge Again

San Diego Padres catcher Victor Caratini went 2-for-4 Wednesday against the Milwaukee Brewers, knocking in the game-winning run in extra innings. Even with a healthy Austin Nola, Caratini continues to receive and make the most of his opportunities.

Chris Paddack Continues Strong May Run

San Diego Padres starter Chris Paddack threw six strong innings Wednesday against the Milwaukee Brewers, settling for a no-decision.

Corey Conners A Solid Play At Colonial

Jason Kokrak Staying Consistent

Jason Kokrak finished T49 last week at the PGA Championship, so he will look for a better performance this week at Colonial.

Kevin Streelman Looks To Build On PGA Championship Performance

Kevin Streelman had a solid T8 finish last week at the PGA Championship, and he will look to build on that performance this week.

Matt Wallace Set For Second Colonial Start

Matt Wallace will make his second career Charles Schwab start this week, missing the cut in 2020. Wallace has been consistent has of late, making seven straight cuts and 11 of 13 on the season.

Sungjae Im Looking For Consistency At Colonial

Sungjae Im finished T17 at last week's PGA Championship, tallying his 11th top-25 finish of the season. He has been a bit inconsistent lately, missing three cuts over his last six starts.

Jordan Spieth Remains On Fire

A 30th-place finish at the PGA Championship shouldn't be viewed as a negative, as Jordan Spieth tallied his 10th consecutive made cut during his hot stretch of golf. A Sunday 74 derailed what could have been another top-10 showing, but it is worth noting that the Texas native has already posted seven showings inside of […]

Scottie Scheffler Gets Home Game In Texas

Scottie Scheffler kept his excellent form rolling at the PGA Championship last weekend, posting an eighth-place finish in South Carolina. This week, the 24-year-old will get to return home to Texas, and the familiar scenes might be just what the doctor ordered in his quest for his first PGA Tour title. Scheffler's $9,500 price tag […]
