A year ago, I won the lottery to play Augusta National.
It was the craziest, least believable break of my life. It was also, strangely, one of the loneliest.
But then I arrived at Magnolia Lane on Masters Monday, and realized I had it all wrong https://t.co/AQUxhUaZUI
I truly wish @PBS would hire the team that @60Minutes has fired, including those-soon-to-leave Scott Pelley etc. and create their own version of this iconic program. Ratings would be huge.
Good will would be even larger.
Being one of the subjects of a story is admittedly uneasy. But this is so incredibly nice of Michael Bamberger, one of the all time best in golf. Thanks to those who have reached out here and elsewhere. It is much appreciated. More to come.

@Rosenberg_Mike you are so stupidly good at your job, mike. I look forward to the next place you’ll spend your days making me feel equal parts illiterate and profoundly jealous.
I wrote about a fascinating string of golf interviews from @noahkahan, and the unexpectedly deep lessons they taught me about life as a bad golfer

Some of Fazio’s comments in this (fabulous) story on the Trump muni takeover are so out of touch they literally defy belief.
Like if a guy accused of arson gave an interview talking about the benefits of gasoline, matches and fire insurance payouts
Spoke to Tom Fazio this week about Trump’s D.C. muni project. At first, Fazio didn’t want the job, fearing the “aggravation” of all the red tape. Then he saw the site and couldn’t resist.
Here’s the scoop on his plan. https://t.co/Wu168ibsOI

This week the PGA Tour sent a 13-question survey to its members (and KFT players) formally seeking their thoughts on the distance debate.
Here's what it looks like: https://t.co/7ZzW1g9zRH
Good morning, Damon. I talked with Gary Player this past week at Aronimink about being 90, about Ozempic, about Winston Churchill, about socialism, about the future of LIV and what it was like to fly with Arnie. “I’d be on the floor about to crap myself!” https://t.co/sItngH8ksr
I'm fairly certain Shane is the only human being alive writing paragraphs like this one:
"Everyone knew this course would play easy. Maybe if professional golfers were still playing with elephant femur clubs and balls made of human hair, a golden age-style Donald Ross course like Aronimink could stand up to scrutiny. But in the age of technological sorcery that makes the Department of Defense look on in jealousy, all this course could ever be was quaint. (Read the word "quaint" with as much malice as you can.)"
My big take is that this was an incredibly weird week when everybody was wrong about everything, and as such, my recap is weird writing matching weird events. Unhinged. I call you all morons and buffoons, but im also implicated. The only genius is Higgo. https://t.co/MIKZKb1Zwm
I know everybody loves the Why I Use Iron Covers anecdote from Aaron Rai (I do too) but this is my favorite Rai detail: When he went out and watched Tiger play a pro am like a fan in miserable cold weather, but was too sheepish to say hello.
