Rickie Fowler makes ace, buys the media beer
Rickie Fowler made an ace on his last hole of the first round on Thursday at the Quicken Loans National to shoot 67. And as is tradition, he bought a round of drinks… for the media.
WALK OFF. Rickie Fowler just aced No. 9 to shoot an opening-round 67. #QuickHitshttp://t.co/fOEaTsnkXW

It’s not clear what Fowler’s bar tab was inside the club house, but what a classy move for a golfer who’s considered a Good Guy by his peers on Tour, even if they think he’s overrated.

Isn’t it clear now why Rickie is such a scribe favorite? And now a homeowner’s favorite as well. See the video below.

What GolfWRXers are saying about Kevin Kisner’s new Callaway X Forged CB irons
In our forums, our members have been discussing Kevin Kisner’s new Callaway X Forged CB irons which he has in the bag at this week’s CJ Cup. WRXers have been commenting on the switch and the clubs themselves in our forums.
For lots more photos, check out the full thread here.
Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- btyh: “Holy offset.”
- Glf_LU: “These are interesting. Not going to make a rush to judgement until I see them in person. It does look like a little more offset than I would expect to see in this model.”
- bcflyguy1: “Kisner is not one to make a lot of equipment changes (see the GBB driver he’s still using), so if these do have staying power in his bag that will be interesting to see. I have to wonder if there’s something different about his set, because like others have mentioned there appears to be more offset on his than I recall seeing in the samples I’ve had in hand.”

WATCH: PGA Tour players play hole blindfolded and it’s hilarious/amazing
As part of a Srixon campaign, four PGA Tour players recently participated in a three-hole challenge, with each hole being a different game; hole No. 1 was blindfolded, hole No. 2 was costumes and distractions, and hole No. 3 was alternate shot with a baseball bat. The teams were Smylie Kaufman and Sam Ryder against Shane Lowry and Grayson Murray.
Watch the full video below, since it is quite entertaining (albeit not the type of golf that Old Tom Morris surely had in mind), but in particular, make sure to check out the first hole where Lowry and Ryder play a full hole completely blind folded. It’s amazing to watch how badly Ryder struggles, and how Lowry nearly makes par.
What happens when 4 #PGATOUR pros take a day off?
Luckily, the cameras were rolling.

Cleveland-Srixon’s marketing department has been hard at work crafting these viral-esque ad campaigns; if you remember, former long-drive champion Jamie Sadlowski recently dressed as 80-year-old Grandpa Jamie to fool range-goers. That video has since gathered over 1.2 million views on YouTube.

really great of Rickie. Class act. But maybe next time buy actual beer, that stuff is just flavored water.

I like Fowler more and more. Been to a couple of tournaments here in ohio and (especially during Wednesday practice round) he is is one of the nicest players…he usually spends as much time as he needs to after the 18th hole signing stuff. For a pro golfer who doesn’t have to do anything like that, spending 45 min after a practice round is a pretty genuine gesture of how much he appreciates fans, this is another telling gesture.
