Claire Rogers, Smash GC
Good day mates and joyful Thursday from the U.S. Open! It’s a stunning 88 levels right here at Pinehurst, and earlier than I get into the rest, I must shout out the a number of electrolyte mixes I’ve had in my water this week. My rating goes as follows: 1. Liquid I.V. (particularly the firecracker Popsicle taste) 2. Nuun hydration tablets and three. Gatorade. In semi-related information: I’ve additionally obtained a handful of native ice cream suggestions. Extra to return.
Tiger’s finest outfit of the 12 months?
All eyes have been on Tiger Woods‘ on-course seems to be because the inception of Solar Day Crimson, however U.S Open Thursday may need been his finest match but. I preferred his throwback shirt at Riviera, however the pink and gray stripes seemed sharp this morning. His Thurs Day Pink polo was a whole hit, and I’m wanting ahead to his seems to be for the remainder of the week.
If we’re speaking outfits, I’m positively not bringing my A-game to Pinehurst this week, so I’m glad at the least considered one of us is. Thanks, Tiger.
Brooks in dad mode … and clap-back mode
Certainly one of my favourite people-watching spots at golf tournaments isn’t even on the course. It’s within the participant parking zone, the place gamers share their very first and final moments of every event day. It’s one of many solely spots you’ll see the professionals in a laid-back state.
My favourite second of the week to this point got here once I bumped into Brooks Koepka, who was carrying his son Crew on his shoulders and chatting and laughing as he headed to the automotive.
“Right here we go!” Koepka stated excitedly as he acquired Crew down from his shoulders and put him within the automotive.
You might inform golf was the very last thing on Koepka’s thoughts as he and his 11-month-old son bonded on their technique to the automotive.
The above anecdote was as healthful because it will get, however I need to warn you that the following video of Koepka is strictly PG-13. As a part of a video posted to the Smash GC Twitter web page, Koepka learn among the imply tweets individuals have despatched him, and he dealt with all of it completely … particularly the half about Patrick Reed.
He laughed it off after which stood up for his fellow main champion and LIV Golf professional.
Nice job, Koepka. The very best revenge is laughing on the haters. Or you recognize, having 5 main victories.
The busiest man at Pinehurst
There’s one man at Pinehurst who has labored with extra gamers than anybody else, and he’s not a coach nor a caddie. Anthony Montanez is the on-site barber for gamers this week, and though he’s not teeing it up within the U.S. Open, there are nonetheless loads of cuts and fades on his agenda. He’s given a handful of fellows recent cuts forward of their tee instances, and even had the consideration of chopping Tiger’s hair.
I’m positive it seems to be nice, however I assume we’ll by no means actually know as a result of Tiger saved his hat on for the post-cut photograph.
Fortunately, we acquired hat-off images of the opposite guys who visited Montanez this week. Scottie debuted a wholly new search for Spherical 1 due to the barber, and the web beloved it.
I’ll tally up the ultimate scores for the fellows who acquired a haircut at Pinehurst on the finish of the week and allow you to know if it’s one thing you need to think about including to your pre-round routine.
