Yesterday, Amari Avery became the first black player to win in the 46-year history of the Epson Tour.

Never accept a counteroffer—even if it’s a 100% hike.

Being in HR, I’ve seen this play out more times than you think.

A candidate I was hiring for was earning 100,000.
He got a new offer of 170,000, a solid jump.

But within 15 minutes of the offer letter hitting his inbox, he backed out.
His current company dangled a 190,000 counter-offer and he accepted it immediately.

Fast forward 4 months…
The same candidate messaged me again.
His company had laid him off and replaced him with a cheaper resource.

His message started with:
Hi sir, I’m really sorry… do you have any openings?

This is exactly why I keep saying this:

👉 A counter-offer is not a reward. It’s a strategy to buy time until they find someone cheaper.
👉 Loyalty doesn’t magically increase with money.
👉 If they valued you, they wouldn’t wait until your resignation to pay you fairly.

Please don’t fall for counter-offers. It looks like a win… until it isn’t.

BREAKING: A source close to the US Ryder Cup team says that Keegan Bradley wants to hand co-captaincy to Phil Mickelson so Bradley can select himself for Team USA. A contingent of PGA Tour brass responded with threats to Bradley for him not to do it.

A huge political battle is playing out behind the scenes as the PGA Tour once again stands in the way of what golfers and the fans want.

@GovBobFerguson Bob Ferguson:

- Signed the largest tax increase in state history into law
- Prioritizes Illegal alien criminals over law-abiding Washingtonians

You are a disgrace to the governor's office. And that's saying something considering we were stuck with Inslee for 12 years.

Started the day watching a 15-year-old light up the LPGA. Ended the day writing about a 72-year-old who broke her age in a USGA championship.

Only golf!

HOLY CRAP

The illegal alien truck driver who kiIIed 3 people, FAILED an English Language Assessment, getting only 2/12 answers right and identifying only 1/4 highway traffic signs.

It was also discovered that WA and CA issued Singh a commercial driver's license despite not being eligible for it.

Authorities in New Mexico also failed to issue ELP tests when Singh was stopped there for speeding..

🚨 WHAT IS THIS?? James O’Keefe has footage of evidence of Universal Music Group, Fidelity, Bank of America, and Goldman Sachs PAYING OFF local governments TO NOT COOPERATE with federal agents

Also paying them off to “stop deportation flights”

[JC @LCFiasco]

That’s nothing. They are spending a fortune to remodel every restaurant with a more “urban” look. Money flush. Could have put together a few training teams and hit the restaurants over 12 months to work on food quality, customer service and cleanliness. Fire the CEO and anyone else who thought this was a great idea.

A few days ago, I got this message.

Our @driveftf does everything we can to take care of all the requests we get for those in need. Even when it doesn’t make sense from a budget standpoint.

Today we ordered this young man a brand new set of @CallawayGolf clubs. Play Well.

How is this happening? The victim is sentenced to prison? Here’s a thought for anyone not wanting to get shot, Don’t Steal🤦‍♂️

The more I watch Scottie in ’24-25, the more I wonder… is this run actually more impressive than Tiger’s early 2000s stretch?
