This shot from the 2021 Ryder Cup is one of the most memorable in Ryder Cup history.
However, many forget that it was his partner, JT, that put him there. And it was his partner, JT, that missed the remaining 4 footer to extend the match.
Hearing rumors out of Jupiter, FL that Tiger is tentatively planning a 2024 schedule of:
The Masters
PGA Championship
The Memorial
The Open
Rocket Mortgage
John Deere
British Open
3M Open
I don’t understand why everyone is upset about LIV only playing 3 rounds each week… Justin Thomas only plays 2 and he’s going to be on the Ryder Cup team.
When Brooks shot 75 on Sunday at Augusta, it was an indictment on LIV’s 54 hole format.
But when Brooks shot 67 on Sunday at Oak Hill, it had “nothing to do with LIV.”
Kind of sounds like the golf media wants to have their cake and eat it too 🤔
I’m honestly excited to see JT get chewed up and spit out by the same media machine that got him onto the team.
However, it’s a real bummer that a guy like Keegan Bradley—who has EARNED a spot on the team—will be left out.
If you pick Justin Thomas (ranked 71 in world) because of his Ryder Cup Record, you have to pick Patrick Reed (ranked 25 in world) because of his.
Patrick Reed (7-3-2)
Justin Thomas (6-2-1)
The great irony of golf in 2022 is that the man who won The British Open (oldest golf event in the world) is labeled a sellout for joining LIV while the man who won the FedEx Cup (the most contrived, corporate golf event in the world) is labeled a man of honor and tradition.
It’s baffling to me that Rory has somehow managed to make people believe he is “the adult in the room,” when, time and time again, he proves to be an overly emotional entitled brat.
@PFTCommenter
Good to see Billy using the suspension as an opportunity to reflect and shed some lbs just in time for summer.
Good parenting, as usual, PFT.
It’s quite telling that, during the biggest sports weekend of the year, LIV was able to secure Las Vegas Country Club and the PGA Tour had to settle for TPC Scottsdale—over 300 miles away.
Looks like an awesome setup at LVCC!
Team USA’s Ryder Cup Committee was responsible for the decision to increase the number of captain’s picks from 4 to 6.
And 2 of the 6 captain’s picks are on that Ryder Cup Committee.
You can’t make this stuff up 🤣
PGA Tour Policy Board member, Peter Malnati, called Lexi playing in the Shriner’s last fall a “gimmick.”
Someone should ask him how he feels about two board members outside the top 200 receiving invites for this week’s limited field, no-cut event.. 🤷♀️
Has Joe LaCava ever interfered with the golf in his 30+ years of caddying on the PGA Tour? Not that I’m aware of!
Has Rory ever been an overly emotional prick when he didn’t get his way? 🤔
LIV built a global golf tour from scratch. They built it from the ground up without issue, all while having the entire mainstream golf media attacking their every move.
Meanwhile, the PGA Tour couldn’t even setup an indoor simulator golf league.
You can’t make this stuff up 🤣
When you don’t have the best golfers in the world, you have to resort to cheap gimmicks that appeal to the lowest common denominator.
A once proud tour, now in complete disarray. A sad time for golf.
Every golf media member criticizing Cantlay & Xander for wanting to get paid should have to donate their paycheck from Ryder Cup week to the PGA of America.
If you’re going to insist on others working for free, “for the love of the event,” you should have to work for free too.
say what you want about louisville police, their inmate re-entry program is a huge success. just look at what this young man accomplished today after serving his time
If Rahm joins LIV for Valderrama, there’s a chance all 4 major champions will be LIV golfers by the end of this week.
Cam, Rahm, Brooks, and potentially whoever wins the US Open.
It’s important to remember that Brandel actually is a bad person.
A bad person that has done bad things to good people.
Brings me joy seeing him this upset.
Good guy Rory cheated on his wife with a de facto subordinate.
Good guy Scottie assaulted a police officer.
Meanwhile, bad guy Bryson is caught on camera being a man of the people, standing up for the little guy.
The mainstream media’s narrative continues to crumble 🤷♀️
It would be easy to make LIV 54 hole jokes with Brooks being unable to get it done today, but guys like Phil and Reed played lights out this afternoon.

PJ Fleck in the last 3 seasons:
- lost to Bowling Green as a 31 point favorite
- lost to Purdue as a 9 point favorite
- lost to Northwestern as an 11.5 point favorite
Embarrassing stuff.
Did Bryson deserve to be on this Ryder Cup team? I don’t know.
Did Bryson deserve *consideration* for a spot on this Ryder Cup team? Absolutely.
Zach Johnson failed to do even the bare minimum that is asked of a Ryder Cup captain, and it showed.
Rory went from being one of the best golfers in the world to being “the guy that played with Michael Block on Sunday at the 2023 PGA Championship” real quick.
*JT loses 2 of 3 holes. Goes bogey-par-par in the closing stretch of one of the easiest courses in Ryder Cup history.*
Golf Twitter: YOU DON’T LEAVE JT AT HOME!
“Billy, this is Justin Thomas. He is one of the most overvalued players in golf. His only redeemable quality is that one picture of him sharing a PB&J with Jordan Spieth at an AJGA event when he was 12.”
Greg Norman has made good on more of his promises than Jay Monahan.
While Jay was busy trying to work a backdoor deal, lying and leaking false information to the mainstream golf media, Greg was building something special.
At the end of the day, Greg was right 🤷♀️
PGA Tour's coverage this weekend will be hosted on:
ESPN+: 24mm subscribers
Peacock: 30mm users
Golf Channel: 70mm houses
LIV Golf will air all events on The CW & its app.
The CW app: 92mm downloads
The CW: 122mm houses
Golf media trying very hard to spin this one negative.
🚨🤝💰Golf Channel’s Brandel Chamblee says it’s time the PGA Tour complete a deal with the PIF: "So the time is now, to Rory's point about making a deal, I wouldn't have said that a year ago, but it is the better end of the bargain.”

Bryson realized that most of the hecklers he struggled with in the past are just drunk college kids looking to yell stupid stuff on TV.
By choosing to interact with the gallery he gives them room to yell stupid stuff with him instead of *at* him.
Absolute masterclass 👏
So if Brooks somehow gets this done, that’s 2 majors in a row for LIV..?
And we are still going to pretend like it’s irrelevant because the golf podcasting industry is in kahoots with the PGA Tour?
#TheMasters
Look, if I spend $200 on a ticket and have to pay $20 for a beer, you can bet your ass I’m telling Captain Zach how I feel about his Ryder Cup picks 🤦♀️🤣
Unfortunately for the haters and losers, Phil Mickelson is the people’s champion.
He can do whatever goofy things he wants. He will always be the people’s champion.
2021 Ryder Cup Ryder Cup Record:
Dustin Johnson (5-0-0)
Justin Thomas (2-1-1)
Current Data Golf Ranking:
DJ - 29th
JT - 71st
Which one of them do you think is being discussed for a spot on the team? 🤔
