Rory McIlroy returned to the winner’s circle this week… Ah, enough babble. Time for Tweets of the week!

Last week, we checked in with Graham DeLaet as he set off on his buddies trip to Cabo. From the looks of things, the Canadian golfer and his moustache are enjoying themselves South of the border.

If you’ve had the pleasure (or displeasure, depending on your prerogative) of following one Ian James Poulter on Twitter for the past couple of years, you know he engages in a great deal of silliness involving this elf figurine, and asks followers to submit their own elf photos with humorous captions.

Poult’s elf has returned for 2013. Consider yourself warned.

Bud Cauley is taking advantage of the “offseason” to brush up on his…scuba diving? It seems the University of Alabama grad is now a certified diver

You’ve probably already caught wind of this one. Jason Dufner “petitioned” Tiger Woods to hold the Northwestern Mutual World Challenge Thursday and Friday, with the golfers playing 36 holes each day. Why’d Duf make this request? So that the Auburn grad can watch is alma mater compete for the SEC Championship.

Woods, however, was having none of it.

Dufner, for his part, didn’t take Woods’ decree lying down. The PGA Champion indicated he wanted an Al Czervik-like bag with a television ala John Daly has in the picture below.

A couple of Bubba Watson items: First, the golfer tweeted about the custom golf cart he’s slated to receive from manufacturer Garia. We all remember Bubba’s hovercraft from last year, so Garia has its work cut out to top the flying contraption. However, from the preview shot Watson tweeted, it looks like the company is doing just fine.

Here’s a second helping of Bubba. The golfer spotted a bobcat on the 16th tee at Estancia and snapped this shot. Perhaps the cat’s waiting for the group ahead to clear the fairway before he tees off?

Finally, here’s Kevin Streelman with a seal/walrus hat.

What is there to really say?

GolfWRX is on site this week at Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Kentucky, for the PGA Championship.

While we see fewer equipment changes and new gear seeding at major championships, we get a look at custom gear and looks into the bags of players we rarely see, which is just as exciting. In the case of the PGA Championship, this means a look at the gear some of the PGA Professionals who qualified for the tournament will be gaming, and LIV players, such as Jon Rahm and Patrick Reed.

Check out links to all our albums from Valhalla below and check back throughout the week as we continue to update.

GolfWRX is live this week at the Wells Fargo Championship as a field of the world’s best golfers descend upon Charlotte, North Carolina, hoping to tame the beast that is Quail Hollow Club in this Signature Event — only Scottie Scheffler, who is home awaiting the birth of his first child, is absent.

From the grounds at Quail Hollow, we have our usual assortment of general galleries and WITBs — including a look at left-hander Akshay Bhatia’s setup. Among the pullout albums, we have a look inside Cobra’s impressive new tour truck for you to check out. Also featured is a special look at Quail Hollow king, Rory McIlroy.

Be sure to check back throughout the week as we add more galleries.

GolfWRX is on site this week in McKinney, Texas, at the 2024 CJ Cup Byron Nelson (FKA the AT&T Byron Nelson).

Last year at TPC Craig Ranch, Jason Day ended a five-year winless streak. J-Day is in the field again, as are Jordan Spieth, Tom Kim, and Will Zalatoris.

We have our usual assortment of general galleries, WITBs, and pullout albums for your perusal. As always, we’ll continue to add links to additional albums as they make their way to us from the Lone Star State.

Check out links to all our photos below.
