Played a few weekends on the PGA Tour.
The playoff at the @ColoradoOpen went four holes and it was between two guys with full time jobs. Non-iced tea Sam Saunders, assistant coach at New Mexico and Jimmy Hard K Knous. Engineer at Ping On the 4th playoff hole @JimmyHardK pitched in for eagle from 60 yards. Pretty…
For subscribers: Mark is journaling his week at the Colorado Open. Yesterday he moved into contention with a 64. He wrote about that and what he needs to do today. mondayq.com/posts/colorado…
Tomorrow’s journal article for Monday Q subscribers has some potential.
Opening with a bogey (started on 10) and shooting 64 is pretty decent. Well done @markbaldwin1

For subscribers: @markbaldwin1 has been journaling his week at the Colorado Open. In today’s entry he talks about cut day and what it’s like to be 3 off the cut with 9 to play when you need to pay some bills. mondayq.com/posts/colorado…
Clutch. @markbaldwin1 struggled the first round at the Colorado Open, and was Even at the turn in the second round. With 9 holes to play he thought he was probably three off the cut line. He shot 4 under.
For mondayq.com subscribers, I wrote a diary story about the Colorado Open qualifier and the days leading up to the tournament. You can find it there now. I’ll be writing a short, free flowing entry every day of the tournament for subs. @acaseofthegolf1
Would it be possible to get a weekly diary for Mark for subscribers? Really curious what his week looks like with practice, qualifiers, family, other commitments and would be an interesting ongoing thing.
Ryan Gerard got his first @PGATOUR win at the @CudaChamp - which uses a Modified Stableford scoring system: Double Eagle: 8 pts Eagle: 5 Birdie: 2 Par: 0 Bogey: -1 Double Bogey: -3 Gerard said if his lead was big enough, he would have ended his tournament in style 😂
My dear friend @markbaldwin1 has made 3 straight cuts on the @PGATOUR, 2 of them coming at the #5thMajor, the @CudaChamp Truth is events like the Cuda give guys like Mark a shot to prove they deserve their own shot. Without them, the PGAT isn't the same Read Mark's piece:
On Sunday Ryan Gerard won what might be the last @CudaChamp In our latest article @markbaldwin1 writes about what the tournament has meant to him and why we hope it survives the latest changes on the pga tour. His plea to save the Cuda. mondayq.com/posts/long-liv…
The ‘Cuda, has an impressive list of winners, Morikawa, Woodland and Ogilvy among them. Ryan Gerard now has his name on the trophy, but the tournament’s existence is in peril. I wrote it with the hope another player gets to discover the magic of @CudaChamp next year.

Nice little 64 in the Monday Q for @ColoradoOpen He’s been playing really well. Time to get that 100K.
Yesterday we had our first @driveftf mini pro-am at Green Hills in San Fran. Members of the club paid $500 to pay their own club, all to help our foundation. But they got to play with a pro. Mark Baldwin, Berk Harvey, Bryan Bigley, and Johnny de Los Reyes played with the…
Why I love full field events: A qualifier currently ranked 826th in the world A cross handed chipper A player who at age 2 accidentally ate rat poisoning, nearly died, battled stuttering and because of it was bullied, yet overcame it all. A Buddhist Monk A 52-year-old…
Richard Teder, an amateur just teed off at and became the first player from Estonia to play in the Open Championship. The 20 year old made the Open by holing out for eagle on the 2nd playoff hole at a qualifier. We spoke w him this week. AGM sponsored by @drinkdadwater
Nah, it’s @CudaChamp week.
The final major of the year has arrived ⛳️ It’s @TheOpen week!
Grace Kim are you KIDDING?! She chips in on the first playoff hole after hitting her approach in the penalty area 🔥
Good news: @markbaldwin1 got thru the Cuda pre-q. Bad news: Schaffers Mill which is hosting the Monday has their member-guest this weekend, so sounds like maybe no practice rounds Good news: if a member at Schaffer Creek is in need of a last minute partner, Mark is available
