Denny McCarthy - Golf News, Rumors, & Updates

MC at Rocket Classic McCarthy posted a two-over cumulative score through two rounds at the Rocket Classic to miss the cut by five strokes.

Impact McCarthy finished T3 last week at the 3M Open, but he was unable to bring that momentum from TPC Twin Cities to Detroit Golf Club. He connected on only 14 of 28 fairways across his two rounds and lost 2.21 strokes off the tee. It's the fifth missed cut of the season for McCarthy, who entered the week 81st in the FedExCup Standings, and next week's Wyndham Championship is his last chance to crack the top-70 to earn a spot in the playoffs. He's made the cut in six of eight prior appearances at Sedgefield Country Club, including T11 last year and T9 in 2020.

Share of third at TPC Twin Cities McCarthy carded a five-under 66 in the final round of the 3M Open to finish in a four-way share of third.

Impact McCarthy moved up the leaderboard over the weekend thanks in large part to his bogey-free, seven-under 64 third round, and he ended Sunday with three birdies over his last four holes. His T3 finish was his best of the 2026 season and first top-3 since his playoff loss to Akshay Bhatia at the 2024 Valero Texas Open. McCarthy's success at TPC Twin Cities came from his putter, as he gained 7.48 strokes in that category to lead the field. He also finished T4 in birdies, ninth in scrambling, 17th in SG: Approach and in the top-30 in both SG: Around and GIR. McCarthy's performance at the 3M Open moved him up 16 spots to 81st in the FedExCup Standings, but he's still outside the top-70 to qualify for a playoff spot. He'll tee off next week at the Rocket Classic, where he missed the cut in his last appearance in 2022.

MC at John Deere Classic McCarthy posted an even-par cumulative score through the first two rounds of the John Deere Classic to miss the cut by three strokes.

Impact McCarthy went even-par in each of his two rounds at TPC Deere Run, and his streak of made cuts ended at seven tournaments. Most of his struggles came off the tee, as he lost 2.57 strokes in that category while connecting on 14 of 28 fairways and 23 of 36 greens in regulation. It was a disappointing performance out of McCarthy, given that he finished T6-T6-T7-T11 in his four outings at the event since 2022. He'll tee off at the ISCO Championship at Hurstbourne Country Club next week.

Seventh in SG: Putting in Miami McCarthy carded a two-under 70 on Sunday at the Cadillac Championship to finish five-under and tied for 30th.

Impact McCarthy broke par in all four of his rounds on the Blue Monster Course at Doral, ultimately ranking first among the Signature Event field in scrambling and seventh in SG: Putting. However, he lost 4.71 strokes off the tee while hitting just 23 of 56 total fairways in regulation. Nonetheless, McCarthy's T30 result allowed him to ascend 12 spots to No. 94 in the FedExCup standings ahead of the upcoming Truist Championship, and he's placed T8-T6-T8 across his last three Quail Hollow Club appearances.

Bogey-free final round at TCHO McCarthy posted a bogey-free, four-under 66 during the final round of the Texas Children's Houston Open to finish tied with Adrien Dumont de Chassart for 12th.

Impact McCarthy scored two-under or better in each round at the TCHO, with Sunday being his best of the tournament. He carded only five bogeys at the event, which was tied for fifth best in the field. McCarthy also ranked second in scrambling, fifth in feet of putts made and in the top-25 in SG: Putting, Approach and Around-the-Green. He's made the cut in seven of nine PGA Tour outings this season, but his T12 at Memorial Park was his best finish of 2026. McCarthy will tee off at the Valero Texas Open next week, where he lost in a playoff to Akshay Bhatia in 2024 after the former went eight-under on the back nine of the final round. McCarthy's playoff loss was sandwiched by T18 finishes in 2023 and 2025.

Share of 47th at The Genesis McCarthy posted an even-par cumulative score at The Genesis Invitational and finished tied with Andrew Novak for 47th.

Impact McCarthy failed to score under 70 across all four rounds. He finished in the top-25 in SG: Around-the-Green, SG: Putting and GIR. However, he lost 3.3 strokes off the tee and 3.5 strokes with his irons, ranking 49th and 44th in SG: Off-the-Tee and SG: Approach-to-Green, respectively. McCarthy has made the cut in all five of his PGA Tour appearances in 2026, though he's finished T40 or worse in each of those events. He won't participate in next week's Cognizant Classic as he gears up for the Arnold Palmer Invitational that tees off March 5. McCarthy has made the cut in four of five outings at the API, with his solo 18th in 2025 being his best performance.

Slow start to 2026 McCarthy posted a seven-under cumulative score at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am to finish tied with Cameron Young and Sam Stevens for 55th.

Impact McCarthy opened the tournament on a positive note with a bogey-free, four-under 68, when his two birdies and eagle all came in the front nine. He was unable to gain ground over the next three days and ended up ranking near the bottom of the field in birdies made, SG: Off-the-Tee and SG: Approach-to-Green. McCarthy has finished T40 or worse in each of his first four outings of the 2026 Tour season, but he'll look to turn things around next week at The Genesis Invitational. He finished T5 in 2025 when the signature event was held at Torrey Pines and T14-T39 in 2023 and 2024, respectively, when the tournament took place at Riviera Golf Club.

Ties for 56th at The AmEx McCarthy closed with a three-under 69 on Sunday at The American Express to finish 14-under and tied for 56th.

Impact McCarthy's final round in La Quinta was highlighted by an eagle on the par-5 16th hole, where he stuck his 283-yard approach shot to just 18 inches from the cup. That long-distance dart helped him rank sixth among the field in SG: Approach across two measured rounds at the Pete Dye Stadium Course. After a pair of made cuts to begin his 2026 campaign, McCarthy plans to tee it up again this week at the Farmers Insurance Open.

T40 finish at Waialae McCarthy finished in a share of 40th place at the Sony Open in Hawaii following his three-under 67 in the final round.

Impact It certainly wasn't anything to write home about for McCarthy, but he did pick up some good momentum going forward following his birdie-birdie-birdie close to the tournament. McCarthy was 16th in SG: Off-the-Tee and 26th in SG: Putting, but 56th in SG: Approach and 61st in SG: Around-the-Green at Waialae. He continues to be very reliable as he has not missed a cut in the U.S. since the 2024 PGA Championship. McCarthy will look to keep the streak alive at The American Express next week.
