Happy Friday. Rory McIlroy called his first tour paycheck purchase "the worst purchase ever" after revealing he bought a gaudy watch with diamonds around it. The five-time major champion, who's earned over $107 million in career prize money, looked genuinely embarrassed recounting the horrific timepiece at the PGA Championship. When asked what kind of watch it was, McIlroy smartly declined to answer, citing his Omega endorsement deal. We've all splurged on something equally immature with our first taste of adult money. ⬇️

⛳️ Scottie is sick of talking about the Ryder Cup

Scottie Scheffler finally snapped after fielding five straight Ryder Cup questions at the BMW Championship, telling reporters "I love answering questions about the Ryder Cup, but this is ridiculous." The FedEx Cup points leader, trying to win back-to-back tour titles, had to lay down the law: "We're at the BMW Championship. The Ryder Cup is over a month away." You could literally watch him deflate in real time as another Bethpage question came in. Even the World No. 1 has Ryder Cup fatigue. ⬇️

👀 Growing the game or doing too much?

The BMW Championship is now announcing caddies on the first tee alongside players, prompting debate about whether it's "growing the game or doing too much." The tournament's caddie focus ties to the Evans Scholars Foundation, which awards full scholarships to top caddies, but some wonder where it stops. Will they soon announce sports psychologists, swing coaches, and stats gurus too? Early feedback has been mostly positive, though critics question spotlighting people who aren't actually hitting golf shots. ⬇️

📈 Hojgaard holes out for eagle…twice

Nicolai Hojgaard holed out for eagle from the fairway TWICE in three holes at the Danish Golf Championship, spinning one back on the par-4 12th and nearly dunking another on the par-4 14th. The Danish twin was absolutely dialed in at what's effectively his country's national championship, prompting NBA Jam nostalgia with announcers shouting "HE'S HEATING UP!" The only question now is whether he'll "catch fire" with a third eagle hole-out for the ultimate trifecta. ⬇️
