Thinking about Mom today, and ran across this tweet from Tony Dungy. Thanks , Coach.

@Mike_kim714 All the best MK! We’re all rooting for you. 🫡

Not sure what kind of start I’m going to get off to or the game I’ll have on the first tee but it’s going to be important to stay patient and take it shot by shot. I feel good in the prep that I’ve done and all I can do is fully commit to my shots and pursue them the best that I can and see what happens. I’ll be watching some of the early coverage to see how the course is playing. Wish me luck!

Augusta Diaries Wed -Fina prep day on the course. I played the first nine. It was nice to look at the notes I had written down from Monday and to double check some of them. I made slight adjustments to some of them but I was happy with the homework that I had done. -The wind is out of the NE or thereabouts. It made the first nine very challenging. The only downwind shots were 2 tee, 4 tee and everything else felt into the wind. 2 was almost harder as it was down off the left and super hard to turn it over enough with that wind. It’s going to be way less windy during the tournament but it looks like it’ll be out of that NE most of the week. -Played the Par 3 contest with good friend Si Woo Kim. Actually played the first nine with him today as well. I had my gf caddie for me and we had an awesome time. Temperature and the scenery was perfect. Still looking for that elusive ace though. -I tee off 1139. Will get to the course around 930 to do some warm up and eat some food as well. I have a feeling the greens are going to be really firm and it’s going to play different than last yr. Last yr, there was a ton of rain that softened things up early but not this yr. It’ll be that much more important to hit my numbers.

@RealSamRoberts Yes he would be. He would also put all those brats running around to work in the mines. 😄

Cliff Roberts is spinning in his grave.

@RealSamRoberts Fred Ridley needs to be fired as Chairman. He greenlit all this garbage.

Having Pat McAfee, Jason Kelce, Bert Kreischer and Kevin Hart at The Masters is the epitome of ESPN's cultural degradation of sports. Augusta National should be the ultimate place of dignity and reverence and these ignominious dullards debase it with their sophomorish hijinks.

ESPN ruins everything it touches. Clifford Roberts would have had all these idiots arrested.

It speaks to the total derangement of Trumps critics that in 1 day he goes from being a madman to a coward on the same issue. Nutjobs.

@bo66ie29 My new profile picture . Thank you!

@bonchieredstate Tehran Tucker has issued his fatwa.

What an astonishing statement. And an incredibly revealing one.

@vbspurs So dumb…makes us look like dopes and confuses our Persian friends. Drives me nuts.

Omg. This is not helpful language. I'm sure Marco didn't sign off on this. Nothing you can say will scare the Mullahs and IRGC into submission. Just do what you have to do without sounding like a lunatic about to commit war crimes on a civilisation.

@bonchieredstate He’s going to make a point of that not happening.

Trump has to follow through today if for no other reason than to avoid this site being inundated with “Taco Tuesday” memes.

FAFO Iran. You were given ample warning about Kharg Island.

Bombs away. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Good old California…now my plastic bags at the store break easily and the paper bsgs have no handles. Lovely.

@vbspurs Happy to say I have no idea who this person is.

Almost 700 of my followers follow this ghoul. Really bad. It doesn't speak well of you.

@redsteeze Even crazier and power mad than Jill. Seriously deranged.

100% she believes if he wins she is a co-president. She has said as much about California.

@ianmSC What a freaking nutjob. 🤪

My favorite parts of this video are when Megan Rapinoe does quotes around “biological female” as if it’s something that’s new and completely made up, and when she claims it’s not scientific that males have advantages in sports over females

@Mike_kim714 Glad you expounded on the approach on 18…I figured you were just amped up. Best of everything this week.

Thoughts from Valero: -T2! I’m proud of the finish but even more so from the way I did it. I went through a super hot stretch but while finishing round 3, I felt my driver swing going in a bad direction. In yrs past, after the 9th hole in rd 4, I prob would have finished 10th at best. Ive learned what happens in my swing when I struggle like this and I was able to piece it back together and make a run towards the end. -18th hole was playing so tough. I hit a really good driver, 3wd then had to hit a PW from 100 yds. It wasn’t adrenaline that made me hit it over the back, the wind laid down a bit, or the wind was covered by the stands too much. Tommy also hit PW from very similar spot but came up well short. I needed to make birdie to PW was the only choice. It was actually a sick bunker shot for a tap in par. -The swing I made on 16 with a 5i, is something I’m going to remember for a long time. It was so flush, it looked perfect as soon as I looked up and was an absolute dart when I really needed it. -I’ve actually never liked TPC SA tbh. It’s a windy, desert golf where you can be re-teeing pretty quick. I decided to play because I wanted to play the week before the Masters and I sure am glad I did. Tiring week but obviously well worth it!

Sadly, Western Europe is past the point of saving. They lost the demographic battle by their own policies.

Great effort from Michael Kim (@Mike_kim714 ) at the Valero Texas Open. Just too much adrenaline on 18. On to Augusta.

@varadmehta Lol…what a bunch of secular progressive junk from this clown.

What was it Andy Beshear said about Democrats needing to talk normally? Yeah, good luck with that.

On this Easter, a gentle reminder that gambling on things like golf, needs to be a wake up call in your life. Please stop.
