Parker @ShortGameChef1 your video series is amazing. I’ve watched about an hour of them, and everything makes sense. Can’t wait to improve my pitch shots and sand shots and finally shoot my age!!! #shootyourage

Was talking with @ShortGameChef1 earlier this week and he mentioned players needing to hit a "bump-and-check" when missing long of 15. Looks like Rory tried to bring it in a little higher and didn't quite clip it the way he wanted. Just shows how thin the margins are at Augusta.
Rick Golfs@Top100Rick

The Masters simply requires shots that have the smallest margin for error. Imagine a guy as good as Rory McIlroy chipping into the water. Yet he wasn’t even the first to do it today. Doubles bogey. Masters champs just can’t do this. x.com/CobyValentine2…

@harrymayesTU It’s becoming more popular… Cink, Pavon, Kisner, Fitzpatrick all using it. Definitely lots of really good qualities about it. Has it’s limitations on hitting some higher shots though imo

@Tom_Clocks @ryanmouquegolf For smaller pitch shots I’d agree… for these longer shots, like 60-100yds as demonstrated, shaft lean is needed to create the ball speed and proper launch angle

@ryanmouquegolf Love this setup! But for amateurs, @ShortGameChef1 technique limits the potential for fat shots, compared to the heavy shaft lean seen here. Keeping the grip in line with the shirt buttons also teaches how to use your clubs bounce, which opens up a ton of shot options! Good post

Would you like to hit the ball closer to the hole with your wedges? This MEGA thread has everything you’ll ever need to become a master inside 100y I'll also teach you how to hit this shot 🧵👇

(1/3) I sent this to as many @pgatour members as I had contacts for, including player directors 9 days ago. Open letter to the membership of the PGA Tour, From 1999-2014 I was lucky enough to be in your shoes. It was an incredible time to be on Tour. Tiger Woods put the golf world on his shoulders, and everyone involved in the game rode the wave. During that time, the PGA Tour established itself as a tour with no equals. We played in the largest economy in the world; 90% of the tournaments were located within three time zones, perfect courses, a rabid fan base, and the world's most famous athlete (not named Michael Jordan) played on the PGA Tour. It wasn't a fair fight. Most of those conditions remain today. The US is the largest economy in the world, the PGA Tour plays 90% of its tournaments within three time zones, the courses are the best conditioned globally, the fans are incredible, and instead of one giant needle mover (Tiger), we have the youngest, deepest collection of stars in the history of the PGA Tour. Just as important, in the age of streaming, sports became the only product you have to watch live. The value of sports on TV and digital rights exploded just when the PGA Tour's previous TV contract (which was awful) expired. The new TV deal started in 2022, the same year Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF) put $2B into professional golf and created LIV Golf. Tiger Woods created a financial wave for my generation. The lalapalooza effect of new competition coupled with skyrocketing values of sports rights has created a financial tsunami for yours. And this tsunami is why the opportunity to invest in your Tour has generated so much interest. Whether it's the Saudi PIF framework agreement or other private equity proposals, they all share something in common. The PGA Tour will be split into two entities: a new for-profit, PGA Tour Enterprises, and a not-for-profit entity, the existing PGA Tour, Inc. The current PGA Tour is organized as a 501(c)6, and as a tax-exempt entity, by law there can be no owners. Each one of you is a member of a sports league that exists to promote professional golf, financially support the staging of its tournaments, invest in the PGA Tour organization and all the ancillary products therein (Shotlink, PGATOUR.com, the TPC Network, THE PLAYERS, President's Cup, etc.). It's confusing, but we are the sole members of a not-for-profit entity, that owns a collection of assets worth billions of dollars. How could a 501c6 be worth billions? Let’s take the old Honda Classic as an illustration of potential asset value. If this tournament were franchised (like in the NFL, MLB and the NBA), allowing someone to "own" the only PGA Tour event held in the Palm Beaches, the franchise value would be north of $100MM without breaking a sweat. Now think about the worth of THE PLAYERS or President’s Cup, it is not a stretch to value each in excess of $1.5B. More than sports-washing, this unique circumstance is why the Saudi PIF and many outside investors are excited to invest in your Tour. The Saudi PIF and the other outside investors predominantly operate in the arena of "Private Equity," often referred to as PE. These are large, well-capitalized companies employing many brilliant, ambitious people. PEs invest intending to earn outsized returns for their investors, which will lead to enormous pay packages for themselves at exit (the Saudi PIF has other reasons, but despite the rhetoric you hear about unlimited money, they demand a return on their capital).

Finally home after 13 hours in the ER. Today >90% of my patients were confirmed or likely #COVID19. Many really sick, some in their 30s like me. The sirens on otherwise empty NYC streets are unending & haunting. I’m tired. But really honored to be back in the ER in the morning.

My 8 year old daughter just yelled “Oh no the toilet is smoking!!” My wife and I ran to the bathroom to find this. It’s just day 4 of home school.
