Do you have a kid? Do you have a friend who recently had a kid? I’ve got some good news! Get them interested in golf with The Golfer’s Zoo. Rumor is Scottie and Nelly consider it a big part of their recent success (also a rumor that is totally untrue).

This image is golf. It shows a man that absolutely dominated this game his entire life who remains lost at a place he should be the most comfortable. You can take it like that. It also shows a man never giving up on the search, hoping the next swing is THE ONE. I like the latter.

No matter if you're LIV or the PGA Tour, rollback or no rollback, the one thing we can ALL agree on is if you hit a putt on a practice green so bad it goes close to a hole you weren't aiming at you will absolutely hit that second ball to that same wrong hole.
