🚨🍺💦 #WATCH — This man was upset after going for a bathroom break during round 1 of LIV Adelaide, saying he was “mid urination” during Patrick Reed’s ace on the watering hole.
I love this: #Eagles RB Saquon Barkley spotted the team’s ball boy in the crowd and pulled him over the fence to celebrate in the Super Bowl parade.
So awesome.

Thoughts from WM (a bit long ⚠️)
-Really proud of the way I played this week. My game didn’t feel amazing after the first day but scrapped it around. Figured it out as the week went along and couldn’t be happier with how I handled the mental side of playing in contention in the weekend.
-I wish I could better describe what it’s like watching Jordan spieth’s ball roll on the green. It’s like his golf ball has eyes and it’s actively trying to go in the hole haha. It’s fun to watch him golf as you never know what you’re going to get. That par on 11 was dirty but Mav and I were on the side talking about how this would be the most Spieth par before he hit his 3rd… and of course he made par. Maverick also can really roll it. A bit more drippy speed with him.
-After listening to the NLU pod with Joe Mayo, I reached out to him and asked for a chipping lesson. I had one of the shallowest AOA on tour and we steepened it up some. I went from about -3 to -7ish. It wasn’t too complicated, a lot of set up and club working way more vertical. This week with the overseed rye, it’s very forgiving which made the change pretty comfortable. Idk how I would have felt if it was tight Bermuda. Regardless, i had better contact which lead to better distance control and one of the key reasons why i was able to go bogey free for 57 holes and one bogey in 72. 9th for the week on SG: around the greens. Will keep at it.
-16th hole is just really cool. Yeah, they prob shouldn’t throw stuff on the green but the players feel it, the crowd can feel it, it’s a setting unlike any other. It’s exciting as a competitor. I think it’s awesome. So many tournaments try to replicate it but it’s obviously not close to here. It’s honestly a bit of a bland hole without the setting haha
-TPC Scottsdale overall is just a great designed course. Enough desert to make you think on every single tee shot. Enough green contour to make you think. Great hazard placement. Risk reward galore out there. You can make birdies and bogeys in bunches.
-Friday, I had a really bad warm up, driver was terrible, so much so I switched my driver setting from D1-A1 with about 10min to go to my tee time. Something I have never ever done in my career. I had switched it earlier in the week and went back to the setting I had prior.
-The reason I switched was I was hitting it well on the really good ones but tended to miss a bit too much to the left at times. I wanted it to be 10% better but it got way worse. Funny how golf works this way sometimes.
-HUGE Thank you to my followers for giving me support during the WM. Heard lots of them giving me a shout during the week.
-Onto Genesis and Torrey (again). Looks like the weather is going to be really tough Thursday. Will try to keep it rolling.
“OK, so we’ve got Ozzie, Gaylord, Winfield and Fingers on this team. Who gets the program cover?”
“You know what, call me crazy but I say we find a tense elderly fan.”
“You sonofabitch. You’ve done it again!”
Don’t mess with tour winner Sang Moon Bae:
According to sources, Earlier this week in Colombia, Sang Moon decided to not take the tour shuttle to the course, instead taking an uber.
As he was riding in the back seat w the windows down and his hand out the window w his watch on, two motorcycles pulled up next to the car.
They demanded SM to hand over his watch. To which SM refused. One of the men then pulled a gun and SM slapped it out of the would be robbers hand. (one player said he heard that SM “did some ninja stuff” and grabbed the gun, turning it on robber, but that seems to be part of a growing legend of the incident)
Some people I spoke w said he was hit after that with the gun, although some of the details are murky and I couldn't confirm this.
The uber driver then sped away from the two people and SM lost nothing.
If you are a gambler might be time to throw a few shillings on Sang Moon before he tees off.
