My old man volunteers at Valhalla and said he saw him signing and giving hats to the policemen and volunteers in one area after his round on Sunday. Always enjoy hearing about any professional athlete giving back or doing something for others.

Weather is unreal, already locked in a few mythical appointments for this afternoon and tomorrow to head out early to the course. Try to play to dark both days. Not sure it gets much better 
Playing at owl creek tomorrow in Anchorage. Wife's work is putting on some charity scramble. They needed one more for a foursome. Been a year since I've played. Hope they realize the suckiness I'm bringing lol. Anyone played there?

You play the nine twice, greens usually fast, not really a great track but you will be rubbing elbows with some ballers in the clubhouse.
For those looking for a new putter....this could help you.

I have the EVN Roll ER3. Love it. That said, like anything else in golf, if your stroke is off it is not going to make a major difference. What I like most about it is it has a much bigger sweet spot so if you miss the center of the putter face the ball is still going to roll on a very good line.

Good story on Len Mattiace intentionally 3-putting the final hole to preserve a course record.

Never happens out in a casual round with your buddies but with something on the line, of course it does.
I'm watching the Tour Championship at East Lake in Atlanta...
For all the money the FedEx Cup is worth, it just seems difficult to understand how it all works. Who is actually ahead? What are the consequences of changes in leaderboard? A bit too complex for the casual golf fan like me to understand. Not a great format to end the tour.

Who won the whole thing, how close was it stroke wise and what was the money difference between first and second? I realize I could google these things but I like this thread.
Justin Thomas won $10 million for winning the Fed Ex Cup and another $945,000 for second place and Xander Schauffele won the Tour Championship by 1 stroke and about $3.5 million total with his win and his 3rd place in the Fed Ex Cup.
On the way back from Louisville, I noticed the Brook has closed? When did that happen?

"Have I ever been high in a PGA Tour event? Sure. Haven't done it often, but if I'm teeing off Sunday near last place with no way to move up the leader board meaningfully, I'll treat myself to making the day a little more fun, or at least different. I've smoked beforehand with the other players in my group, too."

I got the JPX Hot Metal in July. I hit about 20-25 yards further than my old set, but my old set was Ping ISI’s from 1998.

So what was the answer.
So who’s happier this rule wasn’t in place the past decade? Tiger or DJ or Pat Perez?
Looks like Lexington Christian will sweep individual and team.

CM Mixon from South Warren is going to be a good one. Slow first day, but kid can flat hit a golf ball. Cool little hairstyle, does not fit the typical golfer look.
Played Poppy Hills today. First time. Well, just when you think youre getting better....haha.
