🎙️ The Starter
How many pro golfers have won at least 10 majors in their career? |
Last Starter: 42% of readers knew that Tiger Woods has won $120 million over the course of his career. His first big purchase after making it? Paying off his parents' second mortgage that funded his junior tournaments. His family had to mortgage their house just so 14-year-old Tiger could travel to AJGA events, a debt he erased by age 20. Years later, he fought back tears recounting this story during his emotional Hall of Fame speech. ⬇️
Tiger reveals at his Hall of Fame induction that his family took out a second mortgage when he was 14, so that he could play on the junior golf tour.
Six years later, when he signed his pro contracts with Nike and Titleist, he paid off that mortgage.

Picks for the Cognizant
Last week’s picks (Mexico Open):
Akshay Bhatia Top 10 (+190) ✅
Patrick Rodgers Top 10 (+260) ❌
If not for an all-time terrible Sunday from Patrick Rodgers, we could have had a great weekend with both guys finishing in the Top 10. Still ended up with a +190 hit with Bhatia and now on to the Cognizant. This week it's about balancing the risk, so we're going to add an amateur in the mix just to spice it up a little. The guys we're riding with this week are:
Shane Lowry Top 10 (+200)
Denny McCarthy Top 20 (+170)
Luke Clanton Top 20 (+235)
