⛳️ The shirtless maniac is back...

Happy Wednesday. A girlfriend went viral (1.3 million likes, 7 million views) for painting her boyfriend a stunning hole-in-one memento inspired by Werner Bronkhorst's textured art featuring miniature hyperrealistic people. The layered DIY masterpiece took days to dry before adding the ace itself, photographer, pushcart, surrounding golfers, and custom oak floating frame. Bronkhorst himself praised the work, with commenters noting "this is cooler than his hole in one." The artist may start taking commissions—perfect for golfers with aces or those just visualizing future glory. ⬇️

📰 GOLF STORIES

⛳️ Sahith Theegala got engaged

Sahith Theegala announced his engagement to longtime girlfriend Julianna "Juju" Chan with a dramatic Hawaii cliff photo shoot, making big moves off the course during cuffing season. The 27-year-old PGA Tour pro and his Pepperdine sweetheart—he played golf, she swam—met in 2017 and went public at the 2023 Sentry Tournament of Champions. Chan went viral at the Open Championship braving stormy weather during Theegala's range session at Royal Liverpool. The golf world turned out to congratulate the fan-favorite known for his easygoing personality and perpetual smile. ⬇️

👀 Brian Harman slams club after hitting good shot

Brian Harman delivered an all-time club slam at the DP World India Championship despite hitting a great shot, violently hurling his iron after what he thought was bad contact only for the ball to land pin-high seven feet from the hole. The 2023 British Open champ opened Sunday's final round with a triple bogey that dashed his tournament hopes, leading to the frustrated overreaction on the par-3 fifth. Even Hideki Matsuyama thought it was excessive. The golf gods saw to it that Harman missed the birdie putt anyway. ⬇️

🤔 Bryson keeps throwing shade at Rory

Bryson DeChambeau seemingly referenced Rory McIlroy's U.S. Open collapse during his "Break 50" episode with Steph Curry, saying "other people have had tougher moments, missing three-footers and putts for major championships" when discussing disappointment. Golf Twitter erupted claiming it was a dagger at Rory, but the episode was likely filmed before the Ryder Cup and the comment seems too broad to target McIlroy specifically. If he'd said "U.S. Opens" specifically, maybe, but this feels like wish-casting from muckrakers rather than genuine beef. It's a nothingburger. ⬇️
