Welcome to the post-WGC-Cadillac Championship edition of Tweets of the week. Contrary to popular reports, more happened this week outside of tournament winner Patrick Reed’s 10-minute post-round interview.

In this installment, Reed earns the true measure of success: a parody Twitter account, Luke Donald rips Ian Poulter, Greg Norman fancies himself a bard and we get a look at some sweet wedge stamping.

On to the tweets!

Up first, not a tweet but a Twitter account. You may be familiar with the “ego” handles, such as Jason Dufner’s Ego and Tom Brady’s Ego. Well, following his post-round comments at the WGC-Cadillac Championship, someone has decided that Patrick Reed’s ego requires a space in the Twitterverse.

As expected, Reed’s ego didn’t waste any time being modest with its first tweet.

More recently, @PatrickReedsEgo retweeted the now-legendary Oscars selfie with a slight addition: himself.

Richard S. Johnson posted this essential bit of advice he spotted on his Instagram account.

This sunset inspired Greg Norman to wax poetic. I appreciate the sentiment, but think Mr. Norman should stick to wine, golf and business.

Cleveland Golf posted this shot of Keegan Bradley’s new 54-degree wedge on its Instagram account.

GolfWRX is on site this week at the Valero Texas Open.

The event has been around since 1922, making it one of the oldest on the PGA Tour calendar. Over the years, it’s been held at a variety of courses across the Lone Star State, but it’s found its home at TPC San Antonio in recent years. Some of the biggest names in golf have taken home the title here, including Arnold Palmer, Ben Hogan, Lee Trevino, and Ben Crenshaw.

GolfWRX has its usual assortment of general galleries, WITBs and special pull-out albums. As always, we’ll continue to update the links below as more photos come in from TPC San Antonio.
