I think he is about to get some sponsor exemptions and make noise. His parents have no interest in him going pro early and money isn’t a huge factor for their family. He’s just that good.
Kid I played with on my high school team was between 3 and 5 consistently. Hit #2 every now then but could never catch Wesley Bryan. He ended up at Winthrop, if that gives you any indication on what to expect. He also won the 2020 SC amateur of the year 12 years after graduating high school
Womens us open is at pine needles this week. The weather looks like it’s going to be perfect for firm and fast.
Reading(listening) to the new Phil book. Most interesting thing I’ve learned so far is that John Daly’s college coach wanted him to lose 60 pounds so he talked him into starting smoking.
he said his coach got him on this cigarettes, popcorn, whiskey diet in his biography. Made sense out of everything.
Has PGA said what they’d do to discipline tour members if they play? I only know they said players weren’t allowed to play in the LIV. Wonder if they’ll be allowed to play the US Open?
Interesting that Gooch is on there as he's real tight with Max isn't he? I say that just because hasn't Max said multiple times on the NLU podcast that he was really in the dark about all of it and was never approached and had asked dudes about it but never got any info? Hard to believe that all to be the case when one of, if not his closest friend on tour is jumping ship. I also could be not remembering correctly, idk.
Sorta but no one took his comment at Riv seriously. Not a surprise he is a piece of shit Is a surprise that he is willing to be the face of the upcoming litigation (unless his star power scares the tour from alienating him, dubious)
Think that’s mostly accurate, although Max did talk about how they had joked about “what if they offered you x amount?”
Threatened bans/suspensions but there hasn’t been any rumblings since they declined all the releases and most guys had said they were staying on Tour. Definitely puts them in a tough spot with DJ going. That last part would be up to the USGA
Loves the RC too much to jeopardize any chance at that....even though he very likely may not get picked/qualify again
