We have nothing but respect from DP World Tour pro Julien Brun, who had a weekend from hell, admitted it afterwards and roasted himself in winning fashion.
It’s not as if back-to-back LIV Golf winner Talor Gooch is hurting for money right now, but losing a heck of a lot to taxes (from a country you don’t live in) is never fun.
We have quite a few holes-in-one stories here, but very few (none) of them feature a golfer saying that he’s going to sink an ace … and then doing exactly that.
Paige Spiranac became the latest golf personality to use the sluggish finish at Augusta National earlier this month as a jumping-off point to discuss what’s wrong with slow play in golf and what should be done about it.
There are a few things you hear year in and year out when it comes to the Masters. The cheap sandwiches are a godsend, the Tiger Woods crowds are somehow more intimidating than you expect and the Augusta National merch shop is a madhouse on par with a Taylor Swift concert.

We doubt that the party gets as raucous as this clip suggests, but since we don’t get an inside look year-to-year, there’s no proof that this isn’t what happens.
Dealing with hecklers is an art. There are many approaches, but nothing as cutting and direct as hitting it to 10 feet, delivering an expletive—preferably in a thick Irish brogue—and casually strolling past your assailant.
Maybe the best part of the TikTok is the anticipation as the father-son duo watches the ball bounce to the green and take its time finding the cup. You can’t hear the dad’s shriek of joy in the actual video, but you can certainly hear it through osmosis.
Since jumping to the LIV Golf League last year, the 2020 US Open champion has played in 10 individual events but finished no better than his T-8 at the Open Championship. In three starts so far in 2023, he has missed a cut (Saudi International), posted a T-24 (LIV Mayakoba) and a T-44 (LIV Tucson); in the last two there were only 48 players in the field.
