Why are there not 50 courses in Alberta that look like this. Instead we plant Christmas trees in rows. This visual would give you perfect sense of place. That place being the beautiful Prairies of Alberta.

@RuMacdonald Did you not see how happy Rahm and Sergio were at the Masters? Bryson was so excited to get back to LIV he tripled the 36th hole to make an early exit.

The Players Championship field shrunk from 144 to 120 (147 to 123, Thanks Brooksie!) this year. Here's the 24 guys left out with the new rules:

@cordie_golfwell @KylePorterNS He has highlighted ‘Tee 2 Green’ which excludes putting. I think it also excludes around the green. The column next to it is ‘Total’ where he finished 1st.

You can always count on @IIHFHockey refs to miss obvious calls. Just like the blatant interference penalty they didn’t call on the hit Crosby too.

Suzuki and Doughty struggled to sort out the 3-on-2 coverage on the goal that almost ended 🇨🇦’s Olympic tournament. Why? 🇨🇿 got away with having 6 players on the ice. Credit eagle eye @DimFilipovic for noticing, but this screen shot is from right after Harley’s shot got blocked.

@golfrulesguy @MyGolfSpy If rolling the ball back is asinine, then wouldn’t it be logical that the ball needs to be rolled forward? Virtually every argument they make leads me to think a longer ball would be awesome for everybody.

I love @MyGolfSpy . Some of what they say is true. But it is disappointing that they are unable to look at the big picture.
MYGOLFSPY@MyGolfSpy

You will be hearing more and more about the golf ball rollback in the coming weeks. It’s arguably the most asinine decisions this sport has made in 50 years. It affects .1% of golfers the other 99.9% of amateur golfers don’t have a distance problem. There’s never been a golfer that we’ve ever asked that said “I hit the ball too far”. Amateur male golfers have gained .7 yards in 10 years (that’s 2.1 feet) and amateur women golfers have lost 3 yards. So what possible reason is there for a rollback? There isn’t one.

@MyTPI @4golfonline This is exactly why social media needs a dislike button for content creators. Cringe watching feeds into this tools algorithm, he reaches more people, and has an outsized influence. Even though a bunch of his views do not indicate support for his message.

@4golfonline Him suggesting that Greg doesn’t “have a background in golf” was hilarious. I normally don’t respond to trolls but that post was especially egregious. Now he’s asking for a meeting with Dave and Greg. Might be tough for us to make that one happen, Jim!

I have to post this and I am sorry but not sorry To make a dumb claim that @MyTPI and DOCTOR Greg Rose doesn’t help and hasn’t moved or industry on massively just to grow you miss informed audience is not only a sign of how sorry online content has become around golf. But it also shows how easy it is to just spread poor info with no regard to who might consume it TPI, Greg and his team should be celebrated to help I g us all learn and improve as golfers, coaches and just general fitness oriented minded people. When can we start valuing experts again and when will the age of dumbing down for clicks be seen for what it is. DESPERATE You the audience deserve so much more.

Taking in the Nebraska golf scene and visiting some Spartans prior to the football game on Saturday. First stop, Sand Hills GC to visit superintendent Kyle Hegland. The course lays like green ribbons across the prairie. Firm, fast, windy, and the friendliest staff you’ll find!

@KylePorterNS @jamierkennedy Is it possible he doesn’t fit in with the American golfers? Can’t see him being this ineffective if he was on team Europe.

To update this @jamierkennedy stat from earlier in the week: Since Jan. 1, 2022, Scottie Scheffler has won ... • 26 percent of golf tournaments he's played. • 13 percent of his available Ryder Cup points.

@KVanValkenburg @TheShotgunStart Why? In the US, everyone (especially male) is conditioned to be 'a winner' ... on their own. Above all others. That's why your players win more majors. But as a team, it contradicts your whole life conditioning. The women get it. See US Football (soccer) team

@GolfGuy77 @vogeygolf @Top100Rick @PGATOUR I don’t have a solution. I liked the starting strokes but it was obviously very unpopular. I would like for there to be one winner but it should also be a deserving winner.

@mikedbowen @vogeygolf @Top100Rick @PGATOUR So you’re advocating for the winner of the Tour Championship to be the FedEx Cup champion like it is now? Tiger was way out of it going into Tour Championship and a win got him where it did.

@vogeygolf @Top100Rick @PGATOUR The system they had in 2018 was fine where Tiger won Tour Championship and Rose won FedEx Cup. But the Tour hated multiple winners.

@KylePorterNS Do you think if LIV didn't exist that Scotty might get beat by rahm/Bryson more often and we wouldn't think the gap between the field and Scotty is larger then ever?

@SHistorians @usopengolf @USGA Is there any pin locations on the back half that would be of interest. If there is, I’d like to see them flip it and use the front half as the practice green.
