Tiger Woods, Jason Day, Dustin Johnson: Chambers Bay practice buddies
ESPN’s tireless golf scribe, Bob Harig, snapped and tweeted the above photo of Tiger Woods playing a few holes with Jason Day and Dustin Johnson at Chambers Bay. Harig then offered the following ringing endorsement of the 14-time major winner’s practice play:
“Hard to say. Nothing looks as bad as he was at Memorial. Seems normal.”
He also suggested that Woods enjoys the pair’s laid-back demeanors.
Woods made a trip to Chambers Bay to practice ahead of a miserable showing at the Memorial two weeks ago. Day has been on the premises for a few days it seems, and is coming off a pair of missed cuts at The Players Championship and The Memorial. Johnson, for his part, withdrew from last week’s FedEx St. Jude Classic due to an illness after just nine holes.
It seems the practice round was a light-hearted affair, based on the USGA’s tweet:
“Tiger is having some fun in his practice round, pretending to set up left-handed for his tee shot on No. 16.
#USOpen“

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.

Its a public course if you are a real pro you will adapt and not complain.Most of us deal with bad bounces.brown patches every week and get on with it instead of acting like spoilt brats.

This course is a disaster. Hopefully Davis will get fired over it.
