On this week's Back 9 Report, hosts Fred Altvater and Carlos Torres talk through the golf headlines and get ready for the new PGA Tour season.

This week, they recap the lopsided U.S. win at the Presidents Cup and what went wrong for Nick Price's International Team. The Par 5 News includes segments on Rory McIlroy's health, John Daly's new restaurant, PGA Tour Player of the Year and Rookie of the Year nominees, Streamsong's new course and Keith Dawkins becoming the new CEO of The First Tee.

They also break down the PGA Tour's 2017 season: major champions, winners and young guys setting the record for number of wins, as well who to watch for next season.

Golf course architect Andrew Green and Inverness Club Head Professional Derek Brody talk about the renovation work being done to the historic course and explain why it is being done now.
