@serbofrome @JewishGenomics What’s the name of the lineage?

[The Urban Golfer @GolferUrban]

@JewishGenomics How related are Mountain Jews and Georgian Jews? Do Mountain Jews serve as a partial population source for Krymchaks?

[The Urban Golfer @GolferUrban]

@JewishGenomics @masadaboy48 @AleJohnson242 Mostly West Slavic in nature, right?

[The Urban Golfer @GolferUrban]

@JewishGenomics What do you make of the Corso dei Mille sample and Goldenen Stiege samples in the CMH?

@Irish_On_Tour @HPlanner_Tour @calebjsurratt1 @livgolf_league @LIVGolfComms @LIVGolfData @ScottONeil @arlowhite He also finished T9 at the Danish Golf Championship and made the cut at the US Open…

@JewishGenomics @josh_avraham Understood. The chance they don’t have unknown/distant Ashkenazi roots is probably extremely tiny.

[The Urban Golfer @GolferUrban]

@JewishGenomics How much Karaite impact is there on the gene pool of Ashkenazis from places like Crimea, Lithuania, Belarus, Northeast Poland, etc…?

[The Urban Golfer @GolferUrban]

@JewishGenomics @josh_avraham I see there’s an Ashkenazi tester from Belarus in this lineage as well. Even connects with a downstream lineage with 2 other Moroccan Jews at 1150 CE. Likely meeting point/explanation here?

[The Urban Golfer @GolferUrban]

@CJ_Bertram No Pennard or Sagebrush? Seem like obvious ones.

@mehdirhasan His mom was literally a Syrian Jew from Aleppo. You’re too much

@GolfloverUK @jerichsen66 @GLUgolfclub @JonRahmOfficial @LegionXIIIgc @ScottONeilLIV 5 months? The funding is up at the end of August

@Heavenly_Race_ This might be true on an average level, but on an individual basis? C’mon. It’s normal for an individual to vary by up to 15-20 points across different IQ tests at different times in their lives. Plenty of overlap between 105-125, for example.

@jmcgrathgolf @JoshACarpenter Agree with this, but you aren’t taking into account that the PIF spent excessively beyond just paying players. They flew players to every tournament, put them up at the Ritz Carlton every tournament, had huge names perform concerts at every tournament, etc. There is room to cut.

@ProGolfCritic They can’t play in the Scottish Open. Co-sanctioned by the PGA Tour

@KVanValkenburg Hatton plays better in the majors than on LIV

@JewishGenomics @Afghan_DNA Any opinions on the Tarrega DNA Study?

[The Urban Golfer @GolferUrban]

@JonRothstein Maybe in Jamaica lol

@AmYisrael1111 @Trainboy100 The more questionable move was putting in Federman, a 27 year old single a 4.84 era pitcher who’s been injured for 2 years, in the 6th inning of a 5-2 game to face the top of Venezuela’s lineup. No Kremer makes sense, but once you’re in the game in the 6th, you go for it.
