“There’s no reason you couldn’t host P.G.A.s, U.S. Opens out here,” said Patrick Reed, who won the Masters Tournament in 2018 and played with Trump on Thursday. “I mean, just look at it out here: The rough is brutal.”

Thought @the_fried_egg would enjoy that quote. Incredible golf course architecture take from Pat Reed.
Watched a couple guys roll the ball off the right side of 15 and it didn’t stop until it was against the rough. Getting up and down from anywhere on this hole is a real accomplishment. #PGAChampionship
Titleist doesn’t talk about distance at all with their online golf ball fitting tool. They ask about feel, spin, trajectory, and control… so why is distance such an issue for them? The marketing department is well past this.
Another great day at Gatlinburg Golf Course, a fun Langford track in Tennessee! Awesome job by @Gburg_Golf and his staff - the best compliment I can give is that everything was extremely consistent from tee to green. Which makes for really enjoyable golf.
It’s been 2 years since I first played Gatlinburg Golf Course. Returning this week and can’t wait to see what @Gburg_Golf has done with the place!
Love this sentence from @TheHustle today.
Eastside Golf can get a partnership with the NBA and MLB but not the @PGATOUR. #GrowTheGame

Busy week treating rough, green surrounds, and bunker banks with crabgrass, grub, and broadleaf controls.
If nothing interesting happens for the rest of the #PGAChampionship, for one fleeting moment on Thursday morning we had this leaderboard.
If you enjoy golf at any level and you’re not watching Strapped by the @NoLayingUp team, you’re doing yourself a disservice.

Peep this stripe show from @CorningCCSuper and his staff. Mid-season form in mid-April.
(The conditions, not my game.)
Tiger Woods said of Lee Elder and the Masters Tournament, “because of him, I was able to play here […] I was able to live my dream because of those guys.”
