⛳️ Team Europe calls out Trump

Happy Wednesday. Phil Mickelson floated a wild idea for the next U.S. Ryder Cup captain: 90-year-old Lou Holtz or Duke's Coach K, suggesting an outsider from team sports could manage big egos better than golf insiders. Holtz hasn't coached since 2004 and won his only national title in 1988, making him clearly non-viable, but Krzyzewski successfully managed Olympic rosters including Kobe, LeBron, and Durant. The logic holds more water if viewed as bringing in proven team-sport leadership rather than specifically hiring octogenarian football coaches. What's left to lose? Another Ryder Cup? ⬇️

Here is why looking outside of golf to a coach K or Lou holtz is worth exploring. Golf is an individual sport that doesn’t have team work, support system, partnership, team analytics, personality traits, and more. The Europeans have a template that teaches and prepares their

📰 GOLF STORIES

⛳️ Shane Lowry thought he missed the putt

Shane Lowry told his dad he was "sure I missed it" on the six-foot birdie putt that clinched Europe's Ryder Cup retention at Bethpage Black, thinking it would lip out despite immense pressure. The Irishman appeared confident to viewers as he buried the crucial half-point against Russell Henley on Sunday's 18th hole, but his father Brendan revealed Shane was feeling anything but certain as the putt rolled toward the cup. The World No. 24's relief afterward finally showed his true emotions about golf's cruelest game. ⬇️

👀 The story of Sadom Kaewkanjana

Thai golfer Sadom Kaewkanjana became an ordained monk at 25 to ward off bad karma, spending two weeks in silence walking barefoot for food and meditating in a forest temple. The experience transformed his golf game by training his mind to stay present and ignore distractions like camera clicks he once heard on the course. After battling chipping yips for over a year, he won five times in two-and-a-half months on the Thai Tour and qualified for The Open Championship twice. His monk training gave him discipline he never had before. ⬇️

A spiritual retreat for Sadom Kaewkanjana before the season resumes next month 🙏🇹🇭
Like most young Thai men, Sadom is spending time living as a Buddhist monk and learning how to meditate. 🧘‍♂️

🤔 “Where’s Trump Now?”

Team Europe called out President Donald Trump during Ryder Cup celebrations after their 15-13 upset at Bethpage Black, with players shouting "Where's Trump now?" in a viral video. The President, who appeared Friday during a military flyover to rally the American team, graciously congratulated Europe on Truth Social saying "Yes, I'm watching. Congratulations!" Some American fans cried foul, but Trump inserted himself into the competition and handled the ribbing well. After enduring relentless abuse all weekend, the Euros earned their right to talk trash. ⬇️
