How Tour players celebrated the 4th of July
Admittedly, playing professional golf on the Fourth of July can put a damper on the number of hot dogs and adult beverages one can consume in celebration of the adoption of the Declaration of Independence.
Still, a few golfers putting a peg in the ground professionally this week managed to honor the Stars and Stripes. And those not playing this week were able to have a little more fun.
Here’s a roundup of the pros’ Independence Day items from various social media channels.
First, here’s the ever-preppy Harris English poolside with his beau.
And the nattily attired Donalds at Wimbledon.
The Walkers in dueling red-white-and-blue ensembles. Nice matching, blindingly white tennis shoes!
Brandel Chamblee with a very Brandel Chamblee tweet…
While this is likely not Jesper Parnevik’s dog, it is fabulous and demands inclusion.
Double P doubles up with the patriotic color blocking AND American flag overlay.
One of the better tweets here: Brian Harman’s pro-America tee.
John Rollins with some 1-percent family fun.
Ben Crane took advantage of a missed cut at the Greenbrier.
One of the Tour’s leading bros, Bud Cauley, offered this to cement his status.
Cobra seized the opportunity to throw it back to sponsoree Rickie Fowler’s “USA” stencil from the Ryder Cup.
The 4th is a national celebration of backyard grilling. OSU alum Hunter Mahan took things to another level.
And of course, Golf’s First Couple of Instagram weren’t going to be silent on the 4th. Here’s an item from “Rickie and Alexis.”

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.
Watch @shanelowrygolf, @graysonmurray, @smyliekaufman10, and @samrydersu in #SrixonVS. pic.twitter.com/C4LJwQgmZ7— Srixon (@SrixonGolf) June 25, 2018
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.

Might want to lookup the word “beau.” Don’t think Harris would be happy calling his g/f a dude.

Pretty sure the author meant to say “Bae”… but failed.

It’s a shame, really. I used to like him. It’s not a matter of whether it’s wrong or right, we should show some class and “warmanship.”

So you don’t like him bc he’s wearing a shirt that literally 100000000 people wore over the 4th of July?

I don’t believe those two are mutually exclusive.
