PGA Tour superlatives! Best moment, best shot, biggest disappointment

Rex Hoggard and Ryan Lavner have issued PGA Tour superlatives for the 2026 season, including best moment, best shot, biggest breakout star, top event and biggest disappointment, emphasizing they are sticking to regular-season performances rather than majors. They agreed on Scotty Scheffler as Player of the Year, “particularly after his third win,” and then debated which non-major event stood out most. Hoggard pushed for The Players Championship, calling it his favorite to attend and cover, citing the tournament’s atmosphere and consistent quality. Lavner instead highlighted Cam Young’s finish at the year’s tournament that mattered most, pointing to a record-setting longest drive in the ShotLink era on the 18th hole to win. The discussion also referenced Lowid Oberg’s collapse coming down the stretch.
