Humble, modest and one of the worst golfers you will ever see.

In 2019, I was lucky enough to attend the Masters on Wednesday, Thursday & Monday (!!) with my dad.

Over the next 10 days, I’ll describe some of the best moments that I'll cherish forever.

From the lottery, to scoreboards, to my favourite shots and everything in between.

Finished off with:

So, so good.

I had three final thoughts about the Ryder Cup, the final one being a summary of my feelings about U.S. "fans" who screamed vile shit at Rory and his wife: He clowned you. Welcome to the Hall of Fame of Losers. @fried_egg_golf https://t.co/LB8cDM9tRr

"I have a chance to do the coolest thing in my life here. The Ryder Cup means everything to me honestly, I've won The Open in Ireland, it was amazing, it was a dream come true, but the Ryder Cup for me is everything."

@gcooney93 Brilliant piece, Gavin. Well worth the read.

[Mark Fox @ThePluggedLie]

23 - 5 would be an ideal finish today. I want a slaughtering.

🗣️ “I talked to the 12 guys in Rome when it looked like the U.S. guys were going to do something different with payments and every one of them was like … “No this isn’t a week to get paid.”

Blocking out my work calendar for the week. LFG.

T3 Wyndham Championship
T7 Rocket Mortgage

A last minute push for Bethpage? (Went 2-1-0 in 2018)

[Mark Fox @ThePluggedLie]

This is not ground-breaking news.

But just want to acknowledge that Wentworth is one of the best events of the year. The course. The field. The content. Always excellent.

(FWIW I also have an obsession with the par 5 - par 5 finish)

[Mark Fox @ThePluggedLie]

2025 for Rory McIlroy

- Wins at Pebble Beach
- Wins at TPC Sawgrass
- Wins at Augusta National
- Wins at the Irish Open

Wins at Bethpage? That'd be the icing on the cake.

[Mark Fox @ThePluggedLie]

I don’t like hyperbolic statements, but I’d die for this man.

[Mark Fox @ThePluggedLie]

This man delivers so many iconic moments. The greatest.
