I want to congratulate the Louisville police department and Justice system for simultaneously unifying golf and golf Twitter at the same time... All it took was a tremendous act of stupidity and having the guts to try to see it through ... Good luck with that last part

This idea that the Euro players are straighter because they play more penal courses is perhaps the dumbest thing I've heard all week....They play the SAME courses....this is not the PGA Tour vs the European Tour...this is an all star game from the same frickin tour
