Golf 2025

Im sure the reactions and commentary on this 18 year old girl playing in a golf tournament will be totally normal, not at all creepy and leering and not at all projecting thoughts on feelings about her grandfather onto her.  Probably get shades of the Ryder Cup gallery at an LPGA event.

Herm has probably been leering after her the last few years

Looks like FIGJAM is doing insider trading again:

Him and Favre are in a race for torching fan perception of them.

He's going to get elected to the senate

'Elected'.

5 years since my most recent hole-in-one.

Call it LXXVI Golf?

This seems to be their answer for getting OWGR points, and therefore into more majors.

It's amazing to me how far PM has fallen. I was a fan at one time but not for awhile now. It was an interesting video. Very telling about the times we live in. Boosted my cynicism numbers.

He has been dead to me since he went to LIV.  Like the rest, except when I have to root against them in majors.

The Pedophile-in-Chief's granddaughter shot 13 over at Annika "Fascist Lover" Sorrenstam's tournament

[tower912]

Needed to borrow grandpa's caddie.  That score will be adjusted to a 67 in no time.

She got to play on "merit." Because that's what that team is all about. Merit only!

Yeah, 13+ isn't really his style.

Yeah, 13+ isn't really his style.

He's already been hereby declared winner of the tournament.

I think this article encapsulates why I find it easy to root for Rory:

Based on recent comments, sounds like Saudi Arabia is doing an incredible job on human rights and everything else. 

Time to give LIV a chance

[tower912]

Last two rounds, moved up a set of tees as the courses only had one set in and it was in the low 40's.  Broke par twice.  Maybe I should play old guy tees permanently.

Callaway (mostly) giving up on its poor investment in Topgolf.

I'd imagine a lot of apartment buildings forthcoming on current Topgolf locations.

Never understood why Topgolf didn't add a minigolf concept and some type of short game concept on their locations.

Company can't survive on corporate outing and bachelor party traffic alone.  Ive been 2-3 times, I enjoy it, but its never something I consider on a normal weekend or even weekday, and there is one 2 miles from my house (which Ive actually never even been to).

And totally agree...almost every stand alone driving range these days has a mini golf course.  TopGolf has the resources and ability to make AWESOME ones and would make total sense.

They'd probably argue that a minigolf course doesn't fit their brand identity.

There is a TopGolf competitor here in Madison called PinSeekers, and they at least had the forethought to put in minibowling, sports simulators, and 36 holes of putting greens.

Though, I did just check out their membership fees and they are WAY down from what they initial were priced at two years ago when they opened.

Best time of the year to find golf gear deals especially on Facebook Marketplace. 

That said, just learned about the rise of counterfeit clubs so beware of any too good to be true deals specifically on Taylormade irons, Callaway woods, Lab/Scotty Cameron putters...

Me and my friends do a golf trip every year. Next year we're doing Arcadia and then in 2027 trying to do sand valley. My friend who organizes it reached out to sand valley for availability a couple weeks ago and hasn't heard back. I know they're busy and it's tough to book but is this normal? Any idea how long it actually takes to get a response?
