GolfWRX was live this week from the FedEx St. Jude Classic, a.k.a the tournament before the U.S. Open.

If you missed this week’s photo galleries, see them here.

Golf fans and players (and just about everyone else) may be looking past this week and onto America’s national Open, but for now we have some Memphis photos to reveal.

These Cleveland wedges are dripping in National Pride.

‘Merica!

On that note, I may be pulling an Ed Snowden here…

But underneath this top secret and completely confidential headcover is a Scotty Cameron armlock putter.

You didn’t hear it from me.

Should someone tell Davis Love III his nickname isn’t DL4?

I feel like someone should tell him.

Two-time World Series champ Johnny Damon using a Krank Formula driver

And there’s just no excuse for an outfit like that.

Luke Donald has a new Mizuno S5 wedge in the bag

Which we don’t know much about, but we do know it’s blue. It’s definitely blue.

Soon you’ll know

How much longer do we have to wait, Seung?

I’ll give you one guess where Harrison Frazar was born

Answer: Dallas, Texas.

You said Ireland, didn’t you?

Michael Breed’s Golf Pride Lifeline training grip

Do we really need the numbers to tell us which finger should go where? Don’t talk down to me, Breed.

Will Wilcox has a dirty golf bag.

Will Wilcox clean it?

Author note: Homonym game on point

This autograph exchange is all business.

No happy faces, just a John Hancock.

These two FedEx delivery truck driver playing chicken are the worst

Don’t they know people are waiting on packages?

There’s only two rules to driving a FedEx delivery truck: Don’t play chicken with other FedEx trucks, and don’t leave my cardboard package out in the rain if I’m not home.

It’s really not that difficult.

Wanna know how good PGA Tour pros are at golf?

They can tell the difference between 54 degrees and 53.5 degrees.

“Hush Y’all”

Is this more polite or more offensive than “Quiet, please.”

4-Time NBA All-Star Penny Hardaway looks to have a good golf swing

Maybe he can finally beat Michael Jordan at something.

A weekly reminder how difficult golf is

Billy Horschel won $10 million last year in the FedEx Cup Playoffs, and now he’s trying to improve his putting stroke using tees, lasers, rulers and putting coaches.

  I love Mizuno wedges myself, but this one basically looks to me just like a Callaway Jaws from a few years ago (which were really good wedges, themselves).

I really like that head cover, but please don’t tell anyone. It’s a secret. 🙂

Uhmm, big fan AT, but Penny Hardaway and my Orlando Magic beat Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls in the ’95 Eastern Conference Finals. So “finally beat Michael Jordan at something” is incorrect and as a die hard Magic fan I demand a retraction:) I’m just sayin’……..

Damon batted left handed but appears to golf right handed. Interesting combination.

  It’s actually pretty common to see something like that. Jamie Sadlowski has said in many an interview that when he used to play hockey he played lefty but when he picked up a golf club he started to play righty. And of course Phil Mickelson is the obvious example, he’s right handed but plays golf lefty because apparently he used to stand opposite his father and mirror his swing. Whatever gets the job done, I guess.

I thought Johnny Damon’s Croc golf shoes were worthy of a comment. At least I think they’re Croc’s!

Wilson has a better looking gun blued wedge…at least in my opinion.
I haven’t hit either but love Wilson’s traditional bladed paired with gun blueing…must be the Texan gun owner in me…

Spotted: Titleist GTS USWO headcovers

GolfWRX Tour Photographer Greg Moore was at Riviera Country Club this last week in Los Angeles for the U.S. Women’s Open. While browsing the photos, I spotted a recent major trend in headcovers. That is, the Titleist GTS headcover line expands the majors theme.

Seen on the bag of Natalia Guseva were the red, white, and blue Titleist GTS covers. This is the third time we have seen limited-edition Titleist major covers, the others being at the Masters and the PGA Championship. But with the launch of the GTS line back at the Texas Children’s Houston Open in March, this is the first time we have seen Titleist come out with major themed head covers for the season (driver headcovers through hybrids).

Check out some photos below.

At the Masters, we saw the familiar Masters green, white, and yellow. While the PGA Championship design was colors synonymous with the Philadelphia Eagles NFL team. This shows the season major drops continue full steam ahead for major OEMs. New opportunities for each major for designs and themes, and who knows, maybe a lucky spark for a player and a major championship for their resume. It gets the wheels turning for what major theme headcover you would keep on your bag for the whole season!

Titleist GT280 mini driver after 3 rounds – GolfWRXers discuss

Published

Will Schube

In our forums, one user has announced himself as a believer in the powers of Titleist’s GT280 Mini Driver, and is sharing the good news with other members.

User @dgarland chronicled:

“As the title states I have played 3 rounds with a Titleist GT280 mini driver and here are the results… If you have been contemplating trying one, definitely do. Stock Tensei Blue and set at standard loft and it’s legitimately hard to not put the ball in play with this. It is incredibly straight and even bad swings result in a usable shot. You will give up some distance but you will be in play. I have not attempted to hit it off the fairway yet but I rarely hit my 3 wood off the fairway either. At my home course there are two holes on the front 9 that are a really uncomfortable shot with the driver. One is a slight dogleg right where a draw (my normal shot) can run out of room fast and the other is a dogleg left with trees about 250ish straight off the tee, where a driver that doesn’t draw will get me into trouble. The mini driver has been perfect for both of them. I always step onto those tee boxes uncomfortable about the shot I need to play, but with this it makes it far easier to get the ball in play.

“Update: 2 for 2 again this morning in a 9 hole round.”

Members in the forum shared their thoughts on mini drivers, offering up their favorite models and whether or not they’re a proper fit for their home course/style of play. 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.

NorthMNgolfer: “I’m curious between this and the new TEC mini that was just released. But I’m waiting a mini that can be used from the fairway as well from time to time. Both look like great options.”
jLMN: “I played the GT280 last year and it’s a great club. My problem this year is I couldn’t justify keeping it in the bag when I would only use it 2-3 times per round. Perfect club for short par 4 tee shots. I didn’t trust it as well off the deck compared to the tee box.”
GolferPerson1: “I can only speak to the 280 but I’ve had no issues with it from the fairway. ”
