“Beef” Johnston’s star turn continues with Arby’s deal
Andrew “Beef” Johnston is cashing in on his newfound fame in an extremely appropriate way: Inking a sponsorship deal with fast-food giant Arby’s, whose meat-intensive advertising as of late would seem to dovetail nicely with a professional golfer who has nine-types of beef stamped on his wedge (per Titleist’s Aaron Dill).

And because Johnston is abundantly comfortable on camera, Arby’s wisely put him behind the counter to serve up their signature roast beef. Here are a few shots of Beef in uniform, per his Snapchat and via Golf_snaps on Instagram.

We can trace Johnston’s star turn to this interview following his win at the Spanish Open in which he famously declared his intention to get hammered.

He also filmed a quick MTV Cribs-style tour of his flat for the European Tour recently that’s worth a watch (for his choice in pillows and the contents of his fridge, if nothing else).

Although, with the Arby’s money and his run of good form, he may be looking to upgrade his lodgings.

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.
