  1. Speaking of Jake the Snake, worth a read about his mushroom business.... Jake Plummer Wants to Live Forever
  2. New Nike's dropping soon. Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 39

    REK

    Did he sit the entire show?
  4. Orders denying a TRO are normally not appealable unless the denial has the effect of deciding the merits of the case. Not the case here.
  5. TRO denied. Pleasantly surprised.
  6. Probably. TRO's always depend on the judge and they are in front of one who appears pretty liberal. Merits aside, I'd be surprised if she didn't grant the TRO.
  7. July 2019 - Congratulations, you've been selected for four Tuesday practice round tickets for the 2020 Masters July 2020 - Congratulations, you've been selected for four Tuesday practice round tickets for the 2021 Masters since the 2020 Masters didn't have patrons July 2021 - Congratulations, you've been selected for four Tuesday practice round tickets for the 2022 Masters since the 2021 Masters didn't have patrons July 2022 - Congratulations, you've been selected for four Tuesday practice round tickets for the 2023 Masters since the 2022 Tuesday practice round was rained out
  8. Fourth year in a row (and presumably last) of being selected for Tuesday practice round tickets.
  9. Right, this would be a totally different situation if Tour players were employees. There's no way an "employee" would leave one employer to work for another employer to earn millions of more dollars a year and to work less. I never realized it was that simple.
  10. Decent article on the economics of the contracts. Screw LIV
  11. Pierceson Coody, the former University of Texas star, said LIV Golf made him a life-changing offer. Here’s why he passed on it. Good for Pierceson
  12. That's him. CDC rocks shorts and flip flops in Scottsdale.
  13. G-Mac as well.
  14. Three year deal. It will be there next year as well. It then moves to La Costa for three years.
  15. Boom
  16. Noncounting score - which will be Hammer.
  17. Wonder who the one lucky guy was to get an NIL deal.
  18. Faldo was at Houston for 10 weeks before dropping out....
  19. Clearly wish someone would encourage him to stop saying "clearly" so much.
  20. Another Rival Golf League is Brewing, and It’s Gaining Traction With PGA Tour Players Seems like this one could have some more traction since it isn't Saudi-based and, at least conceptually, not a separate tour.
  21. Because this isn't a tour that has "a few events." It's a tour with around 14 tournaments, at least as rumored. Players like Spieth, DJ, JT, etc. usually play somewhere around 20-25 tournaments a year including the majors. That means if someone plays on the Saudi tour and the majors, he's at 18 events without playing a single PGA Tour tournament. That's not Curtis Strange playing a one off event in Asia.
  22. https://www.golfdigest.com/story/cole-hammer-be-right-podcast How cool is Cole Hammer's name? It was the talk of the 2015 U.S. Open at Chambers Bay, where Hammer, at the age of 15, made his major championship debut. His rounds of 77 and 84 saw him miss the cut, but the teen phenom's name remained an unforgettable one in the golf fan's mind. Turns out, his game has become even better than his name. In the seven years since, Hammer has put together a decorated amateur career that includes two Walker Cup appearances (both wins in 2019 and 2021), wins at the 2018 Azalea Invitational and the Western Amateur, a win in the 2018 U.S. Amateur Four-Ball with partner Garrett Barber, two more U.S. Open appearances and the 2019 Mark H. McCormack Medal. Need we continue? Despite the laundry list of amateur accolades, Hammer, now a senior in college, still doesn't consider himself the Big Man on Campus. There's simply too much competition for that title on a campus like the University of Texas in Austin. "You know, it's funny, we're not [the big men on campus] whatsoever," said Hammer when asked if the Longhorns golf team is popular amongst their peers. "Oklahoma State claims to be a golf school and they're still fully a football, basketball, baseball school. My school, our social media does a great job of trying to promote our program, but the short answer is no. The long answer is we wish we were Big Men on Campus. Sometimes we'll walk around and people will recognize us, but it's not like 'oh, there's QB1.' It's like, 'oh, there's golfer 1-2-3-4-5.'" The good news for Hammer? Once he reaches the tour, everybody will either remember his name or love his name at first sight. He'll soon miss the days of being able to stroll across campus incognito-like. Speaking of school, Hammer still has his final spring golf season remaining before going pro, which was among the topics discussed on this week's episode of "Be Right." Please, have a listen below to our chat with Hammer, and stick around for our Honda Classic picks.
