@plwmmyers @JasonIsbell No it doesn’t. Work away with that angle, big lad, but that’s not the case. And I’m a huge Sinead fan. But don’t twist things.

@Ericarosedaho @Odyssey__UK Quality work with “gunt boy”. 👏 very apt.

[John Richardson Golf @BreakParGolf]

@Odyssey__UK Some of us were there when it happened - some of us knew she was right - some of us wanted to take a fountain pen out and deal with that tragic wee man.

And equally mincey little Sinatra.

Not everyone, by any means, is just discovering this now.

@tiborbarista @kaffeinelondon Hmmmmmm… 😂 it’s somewhat quiet these days.

[John Richardson Golf @BreakParGolf]

@kaffeinelondon @tiborbarista Ahhhh. Just realised I’m logged into the wrong Twitter account. 😂

[John Richardson Golf @BreakParGolf]

@kaffeinelondon It’s a great look. I’ve had the conversation with @tiborbarista many times about the long term value of timeless, quality initial design. It may cost a bit more to begin with but if you have design that is still working 15, or even 25 years later, it’s money very well spent.

@WestwoodLee @AlexMyers3 @PepperellEddie And now you wrap it up with ludicrous arguments against tours that have made you staggeringly wealthy. But you have a bullying, contemptuous, angry core at almost everything you’ve done in the last ten years. Enjoy the money.

[John Richardson Golf @BreakParGolf]

@WestwoodLee @AlexMyers3 @PepperellEddie Lee - you had huge talent, you got fat, you made money, you won multiple times… but you became angry because majors didn’t come your way. You got “fit fat”, hit number one… but it was too late. No majors… and you bullied Rory over leaving Chubby. You got more bitter… 1/2

@DaveTindallgolf Great stuff, Dave. Love it.

[John Richardson Golf @BreakParGolf]

Regardless of whether you’re watching the golf live, on TV or just can’t get to see it… I highly recommend following @MattCooperGolf and @DaveTindallgolf for live updates in @guardian_sport - always a fascinating and unique perspective from both of them. https://t.co/PBNmko1pU8

[Dave Tindall @DaveTindallgolf]

I'm on the Guardian blog today. Come and have a read.

@MattCooperGolf The second one - that still sits beside my desk - is a crumbled (but very famous) picture of those hands on the Ping. It was the lightness of touch that amazed me and I always tried to copy.

[John Richardson Golf @BreakParGolf]

@MattCooperGolf Sits beside my desk - Seve winning the Irish Open in 1983 when I was 15. My two mates and I just followed him spellbound for the whole two days we were there. Magical. And essentially the genesis of Dream On. Signed by the photographer and a gift from my wife.

[John Richardson Golf @BreakParGolf]

@MattCooperGolf Love this Matt. I’ll dig out my photo - signed by the photographer - of Seve winning the Irish Open when I was 15. The one I visited and ultimately sparked off the whole Dream On “saga”.

[Matt Cooper @MattCooperGolf]

Absolutely terrific little exhibition of Seve photos at the @WorldGolfMuseum. How good is this one? The new layout in the museum is looking great. The great Gloria Minoprio's trousers still there. The first trousers worn by a woman golfer.

@DSchlieben Thank you. I’m delighted and appreciate your feedback. 🙏🏻

[John Richardson Golf @BreakParGolf]

@Jonnybroomhead thanks Jonny. That’s very kind. And I’m delighted you enjoyed it.

[Jon Broomhead @Jonnybroomhead]

@BreakParGolf . John just read Dream On cover to cover in a day. What a read. Couldn't put it down. Truly amazing achievement. Inspired.
