The greatest content producer of the Golf Twitter era. I don't know who else would be close. What a cross to bear, but he seems up to the test.

Max Homa just asked a room full of golf media and sports writers 'I don't know if you've ever seen the movie Hoosiers' so he's a real expert at speaking to his audience to provide helpful context.

I followed The Big Golfer today and thought about how I miss his mixture of doofy quotes and brilliant golf. Glad he’s relevant in majors again.

I just re-watched this recently because we were considering it for a Perfect Club episode and it’s stunning how good it is. Would join the chorus saying go watch it on ESPN+

This has definitely been true. Tons of videos missing on shots, like Bryson’s second into 15 on Thursday. It feels like the Louis CK bit about WiFi on airplanes, that you’re incredulous this miracle technology isn’t working, but it’s been surprising to see after a great run.

I don't get emotionally wrapped up in the whole Tiger and Nike divorce, but when you see him in the Sun Day Red stuff, it definitely looks at first like someone hired to play Tiger Woods and perform at a kids birthday party.

You'll think I made this up, but this Q was followed (w/ an interlude by Watson & Nicklaus) by this:

Q. Do you guys have a say in choosing the next ceremonial starter?

Gary Player: You know Winston Churchill is the greatest leader in history and they're calling him a racist.

Fav thing about this is: At 2009 Masters (his last) Gary shot 78-83 at 73 years old, meaning for this to be true, Gary would have started from zero, then for the next 15 years, needed to play a round every ~1.8 days. Before he turned 80, would need to shoo 80 about 1,420 times.

An apt scene-setter for the emotional rollercoaster the Masters can put you through, Kevin Van Valkenburg writes of 'The Real Cost.'

'You can’t put a price on the tournament you covet the most. Just a cost.'
