Tremendous slouch. @NoLayingUp
One of my TrapDraw goals this year was to get more involved with the @WGAESF, one of the best forces for good in golf. Through some work on the back end with their team and ours, we've set up a way to fundraise as a group toward the goal of establishing a @NoLayingUp Scholarship.
We've entered the gritty TW "Finish the race" phase, which rules.
The genius of Royal Portrush. It's not obvious but both Rory and Shane were quick to point it out the same thing. Let's dive in 🧵
NOW we're talking golf, baby. x.com/i/status/19450…
I used to host a segment called "Tournaments We Forget" based entirely on this idea; we focus so much on golf tourneys week to week, and the moment they end, we talk about them for a couple of hours and move on, essentially forgetting they ever existed.
Thinking about this a lot
Hovland is the moern day Spieth. No idea what is gonna happen next. Always seems like he's battling something. No idea when he's gonna get hot. No idea how long it's gonna last when he does get hot. But you do know it's gonna be electric no matter what.
Folks. We did it. 100 holes in one day. 32.3 miles. Thank you to everyone who donated to help the @links_national bring D.C.'s public courses to their full potential. You can still donate! Link below.
I'm proud of the U.S. Open trivia test that @BigRandyNLU and I presented to our competitors today. We're not trying to embarrass the best in the world, we're trying to identify them. youtube.com/watch?v=UkVjxV…
Quick (final) 🧵 on this... Golf's governing bodies are soo bad at transparency. This line is a classic example: "To publicly identify players whose club did not conform can lead to that player being questioned unnecessarily."
The PGA of America has spoken:
Maybe something/probably nothing, but it's at least worth a chuckle that the R1 scores for this major are, so far, exactly the same as last year's Wells Fargo.
A Foxy/Fleetwood shoot out at Quail Hollow could set @TronCarterNLU back a decade. Would undo his entire deal.
