🎙️ The Starter
Correctly answer this poll question for your chance to win 12 free Pro-V1s!
What state is Pebble Beach located in? |
Last Starter: Only 55% of readers knew that you have 3 minutes to look for your ball (otherwise it's considered lost). Now, that's for pros - not for guys like us. Speaking of the difference between us hackers and the best of the best... this insanely viral video never gets old. It's probably the most relatable pro golf video on the face of the internet: just an absolute putting disaster-class and an immediate rage quit (withdrawing from tournament). I'll say it... I would've made this putt on the first attempt. ⬇️
🐅 Tiger’s Debut at the TGL
Public discourse on the TGL is pretty split. Some love it. Some hate it. Yes, it’s not REAL GOLF (no shit). But, some golf is better than no golf. And you don’t get moments like this in “traditional” golf. Tiger had his debut at the TGL last night and walked out to Eye of the Tiger by Survivor. Absolutely electric. ⬇️

If you're not up to speed, the TGL is basically match play with one BIG twist: The Hammer. Click here for the full rules ➡️ (1 minute video).
Well, Tiger didn’t waste any time last night. He dropped a hammer on hole one. ⬇️

Now, what about the actual matchup? Jupiter Links Golf Club vs L.A. Golf Club. And L.A. dominated. Like not even close. 12-1. The Tiger walkouts and The Hammer are only going to take the TGL so far. The competition has been…nonexistent. We’ll see if next week’s matchup (New York Golf Club vs Atlanta Drive GC) can bring some fireworks.
📺 What To Watch: Rory Mcilroy x Grant Horvat

The American Express
Thursday kicks off the most interesting tournament of the year: The American Express. This is the only tournament where players play 3 different courses Thursday-Saturday, and the cut is made after 54 holes, before the final round on the Stadium Course. After cashing on the Rams' ML on Monday night, maybe it's time to play it safe with some of the favorites, right? Wrong.
There are three guys we love because of their ability to go low and their great iron play, which allows them to score low any weekend. We also love a good underdog who can give us some magic come Sunday.
Why not stick a longshot in there? This course sets up perfectly for Rico Hoey, yes Rico Hoey. His odds are too good not to put a little on there to give some cushion for all those bets you're going to miss on the National Championship.
Rico Hoey Top 10 (+800)

Most of us will never play Augusta National. By “most of us,” I mean 99.999999999999% of us won’t. It would be a dream, right? But, that begs the classic question:
