@KylePorterNS @TurtleboxAudio @cobragolf @hbgolfusa Got engaged the day prior. Sent this picture to some friends… little did I know what would occur 10 seconds later.

Let's try this again. We will be giving away ~$7,500 worth of merch, gear and products from our sponsors -- like @TurtleboxAudio, @cobragolf (👀) and @hbgolfusa -- during the week of the first major of the year. So pumped for it. Only eligibility for those giveaways = be subscribed to the Normal Sport newsletter (link below). To kick things off, I will give away a copy of our new Rory book to three people who comment in the thread below with the first thing they think of when they think of the 2025 tournament.

@jliebertgolf @TheMasters 15 and 16 hands down

Which hole would you most want to play at Augusta National Golf Club?

Was just thinking about Big K.R.I.T. Legend

@golfingwxman @top100golf Easily. There’s virtually no public golf in CHS

@jacko_macho @top100golf It certainly would! They have probably made that back in the span of a few months with how busy it is. Place is packed 24/7. High return on investment

Charleston Muni Simply put, this is the best muni in the United States that is under $100 and has never hosted a major. Might very well be the best set of greens I've played. So many sick undulations, slopes, swales, etc. Every other city in the US should come here and copy it

@BowTied_Golfer Ralph Lauren slander is unbecoming

The original, for those wondering. only change would be to put a crisp AM in the top right quadrant. x.com/BowTied_Golfer…

@therealmcnair 💯

Big Glove has taken over. Give me a tan Rawlings pro preferred.

@Joel_Dahmen @TronCarterNLU It’s also those ugly grandstands at most of the course you all play. Do away with those and it would look much better for TV.

Brown doesnt mean bad shape. It plays firm and fun. We need to get over color and how it looks on tv. @TronCarterNLU

@knapptime_LTD Please rock the bucket

Grind time until Houston next week! #LTD

@AOC @haralabob Rare W

This is sad. I know as a politician these companies are going to spend a billion dollars against me for saying it but 🤷🏽‍♀️ Pervasive gambling is not good for society. It turns life into a casino, traps people in addiction & debt, surges domestic violence, and fosters manipulation.

I worked at Epic Games for two years. This is real, and the strategy behind it is smarter than most people realize. Tim Sweeney has spent nearly two decades buying North Carolina forest land. 50,000+ acres across 15 counties. He’s now one of the largest private landowners in the state. The purchases started in 2008, right after the real estate collapse wiped out developers who had been planning golf resorts and luxury communities on biodiverse wilderness. Sweeney paid $15 million for Box Creek Wilderness, a 7,000-acre stretch in the Blue Ridge foothills containing 130+ rare and threatened species. Developers had owned 5,000 of those acres before the crash. He bought them for conservation prices when nobody else was bidding. He runs the acquisitions through an LLC called “130 of Chatham.” He buys the land, holds it for years, then either donates it to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, sells it at a discount to state parks, or hands it to land trusts. In 2021, he donated 7,500 acres in the Roan Highlands to the Southern Appalachian Highlands Conservancy. Largest private land donation in North Carolina history. The part people miss: he told the News & Observer that since 2021, land got too expensive to keep buying. So he shifted focus to converting his existing 50,000 acres into permanent conservation status. He’s locking the land into legal structures that make development impossible regardless of who owns it in the future. A billionaire worth roughly $6 billion is spending tens of millions acquiring wilderness specifically during economic downturns, then giving it away or placing it under permanent legal protection. The land will outlast him, Epic Games, and Fortnite. That’s the part that separates Sweeney from billionaires who write checks to get their name on a building. The building depreciates. The forest compounds.

@woody5090s Hey, I’ll be in town next month. Can you get me and a few buddies on? It’s fine if you don’t have any morning times. Thanks.

My mind is telling me NO. But MY BODY, MY BODYYY is telling me YESSS

@PlayOffJimmy_ Agreed. This could be the most lobsided matchup of all time.

It’s A and it’s not even particularly close

Spring things

@CPowers14 The burnerverse is playing status games, the pros are playing wealth games.

The burnerverse would be shocked and appalled by the amount of tour pros who are fully untucked on the range / practice greens / short game areas at TPC Sawgrass. Some “major”

@nickkokonas Probably because they aren’t Seth Raynor.

Genuinely curious why course architects today don't make greens nearly this good (or Winged Foot as another example). This design is well over a century old and still blows away most -- all? -- new courses.

@leftyzag Always slaps - don’t sleep on their wings too

Mellow 🍄 Thursday
