If Greg Norman and I were outside on a rainy day and Norman told me it was raining, I would immediately go check with two other people to make sure it was raining.
Oh man is this revisionist history just to hate on the Tour, as is Luke’s speciality.
I definitely don’t like what this event has become, but a former top-3 event on Tour? Huh?
We can absolutely talk about this event should be better without making shit up.
The reverence we had for Byron Nelson & the championship held in his honour was immense. It was one of the top 3 events on the PGAT (ex Majors) & players would shake his hand & acknowledge his greatness. Why has the Tour let it slip to almost irrelevance as it is today? Sad…
@coopmavs And hey, that’s great!
I’m just getting at Luke for his constant anti-Tour and pro-LIV propaganda.
Him trying to say The Nelson was a top-3 event so he can claim it’s now fallen off a cliff is total disrespectful nonsense.
The story behind Aaron Rai’s iron headcovers has been well trafficked, but they are so apt after years of seeing golfers exhibiting greed, entitlement and a complete loss of perspective.
Fun fact with Englishman Aaron Rai thriving at a PGA in Philly area:
When Englishman Jim Barnes won the inaugural PGA Championship in 1916, he was the head pro at Whitemarsh Valley ... in the Philadelphia area.
With Matti Schmid leading, has anyone brought up one of the more clutch, insane shots in recent memory?
(Griffin still had a 4-footer left for par, so this chip-in kept Schmid in it. Griffin ultimately made his putt to win by 1.)
@AndyTFE@ArronOberholser Agreed. Last comparable example I can think of is Merion 13 years ago.
When people were predicting double digits under par to win and then 1 over got it done and Phil was hissing at Mike Davis lol.
With Alex Fitzpatrick, it's stuck in my head over the years that he was once described as "the Serena Williams" of the Fitzpatrick family.
The quote gathered by the great @JimMcCabeGolf.

There's an incredible leader, knows how to motivate superior talent, and absolutely loves golf.
If you think outside the box a little, he is staring the Americans right in the face for Ryder Cup captaincy...
