I’d go as far as to say if the PGA Tour had the vision to be doing match play all along, the #FedExCup final would be in the conversation with the Players for best event outside majors and Ryder Cup.

It’s time for another grassroots golf effort. I hereby pledge to fix two ball marks on every green I play until I die or there are no more to fix, whichever comes first. If you’re with me, Retweet, spread the word and add #Fix2Promise to your profile and posts. We can do this.

All this caddying at PGA Frisco helped me shepherd this kid around in 73-65, and instead of getting paid, now I have to buy him airlines tickets to Denver! I hope all my @Ballyneal fam will be at the US Amateur in full force rooting on one of their own. Congrats @lukecolton22 !

Honestly, if everybody hit the ball 90% as far as they do now and you played golf at 90% the distance, would you enjoy the game any less than you do now? It would be cheaper, faster and outdriving your buddy by 9 yards would be just as rewarding as outdriving him by 10 before.
