WATCH: 11-year old aces inaugural shot at Tiger’s new golf course

Published

on

There are moments in sports that are so ridiculous, so awesome, you’d say they were “too perfect” for a movie or novel. This was one of those moments.

Tiger Woods was on hand at BlueJack National for the opening of his new 10-hole course named “The Playgrounds,” on Wednesday in Montgomery, Texas, and 11-year-old Taylor Crozier was chosen to hit the opening shot on the 81-yard par-3 first hole… and he made a hole-in-one. And, of course, the host and course designer was there to celebrate with him.

Unbelievable. If that doesn’t give you chills, then you aren’t a golf fan, a sports fan, or maybe even a human being.

In the video, the announcer said Taylor had a perfect attendance record at school and this was the first day he missed. I think his teachers will understand his absence once they see this video.

Also, according to a photo on Twitter, Taylor shot a 32 for 10 holes while playing partner Tiger Woods shot 35.

Although judging from the video, it appears Tiger may have played the course with just a putter. What a day for Taylor, regardless.

    I know Tiger wants to get back to the Tour, but a part me thinks he’d rather be designing golf courses instead.

    BTW, nice shot kid!

    Tiger does know a few things about getting hole in ones!

What GolfWRXers are saying about Kevin Kisner’s new Callaway X Forged CB irons

Published

on

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

Published

on

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.

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.
