⛳️ LIV is crumbling
Happy Wednesday. Justin Rose won the Farmers Insurance Open wire-to-wire by seven shots at 23-under, breaking Tiger Woods' tournament scoring record at Torrey Pines and jumping to World No. 3 at age 45. His secret weapon? An RV converted into a mobile gym and recovery vehicle he acquired in 2023, proving fitness fanaticism pays off. "I still believe there's good stuff in front of me," Rose said after his most impressive victory yet. The younger generation might want to invest in something similar to keep up with this Ryder Cup legend hitting it longer than ever. ⬇️

📰 GOLF STORIES
⛳️ Joel Dahmen’s hilarious exemption letter
Joel Dahmen confirmed he sent a sponsor exemption letter to the WM Phoenix Open taped to one of his golf polos, referencing his legendary 2022 shirtless moment with Harry Higgs on the 16th hole. "This tournament has always meant more to me than a typical tour stop. It's home," wrote the Scottsdale resident. Dahmen promised to "keep my shirt on at all times—unless directed otherwise by the Thunderbirds." The creativity worked: he got the exemption, then finished T-7 at Torrey Pines to potentially play himself into Signature Events. ⬇️
👀 LIV is doing downhill
LIV Golf promoted its 2026 season with a video asking "Who's pumped for the LIV Golf League season?" featuring Tiger Woods, Rory McIlroy, Jack Nicklaus, Jordan Spieth, Justin Thomas, and other PGA Tour pros/legends—none of whom actually play on LIV. The ballsy social media move drew mixed reactions, with some calling it "embarrassing" and asking about legality while others praised the rivalry-poking humor. "When you definitely know you've lost, you start posting stuff like this," wrote one fan. "LongLIVGolf," said another. Mission accomplished—it got everyone talking. ⬇️
🤔 Betting on yourself…
Former NBA player Bob Sura bet a billionaire $10,000 at 300-1 odds that he'll qualify for a PGA Tour Champions event by age 65—potentially winning $3 million. The Florida State all-time leading scorer and 10-year NBA veteran is now 53 with a 7.6 handicap at The Club at Carlton Woods outside Houston. "I'm a 6-3 white guy from Pennsylvania that made the NBA on work ethic. You never know," Sura told Golf's Subpar podcast. He's also a professional poker player, so he knows odds. But this seems like a total longshot. ⬇️
