15 Revealing photos from the Wyndham Championship
GolfWRX is live this week from the 2015 Wyndham Championship at Sedgefield Country Club in Greensboro, N.C. If you missed any of this week’s photos, check out the galleries below:
The big story this week is that Tiger Woods committed to the event for the first time, which most likely means a “Tiger Cut Watch” on Friday, a “what went wrong for Tiger” segment on Saturday… then enjoying the leaders play on Sunday. But actually, I chose Tiger as value pick this week. I mean, you can’t make a great pick by going with the sheep, right?
Anyways, onto the Revealing Photos from this week at the Wyndham.
Let’s start with a Scotty Cameron gallery…
Satisfy the gear fix for the equipment junkies right off the bat. A true man of the people.
GolfWRX chips putting a smile on everyone’s face!
Well..half smiles.
Can’t stop, won’t stop.
K.J. Choi refuses to stop working out on the range. What an animal!
Jason Gore seems to like his new training aid
But I personally think it’s full of hot air.
Titleist’s new Pro V1 Prototype Practice balls
Apparently the wings aren’t USGA conforming.
Our own Nick Randall hanging out with star pupil Cameron Smith
Best of luck this week, guys! Click here to view Nick’s GolfWRX stories.
Justin Thomas with Brad Gehl’s wedge in his bag?
Maybe he was just Gehlous…
Tiger puts the trusty Nike VRS Forged 2 iron back in the bag
He doesn’t look happy with the first tee shot with it, however.
Jon Curran’s glove throwing up the shaka fingers
Shaka, brah!
Odyssey’s chromed-out Tank Cruiser logo
Creatively uses the center circle as the end of the tank gun barrel. Cool stuff… if you like staring down the barrel of a gun every time you take the putter out of your bag.
Does Tiger know the tag is always sticking out of his hat?
I feel like someone should tell him.
Snedeker’s caddie with the double-popped collar
Haven’t seen that look since Jersey Shore went off air.
Jason Gore’s treble-clef belt buckle
I can’t believe 59 Belts went through all that treble to make this for Jason…
h/t bulldog11
The Wyndham Worldwide Bar’s bar stools don’t leave much leg room…
Pretty cool tee markers, though.
What do I think about this week’s revealing photos?
Overall, I’d say it was a decent week.

What’s the perfect mini-driver/shaft combo? – GolfWRXers discuss
In our forums, our members have been discussing Mini-Drivers and accompanying shafts. WRXer ‘JamesFisher1990’ is about to purchase a BRNR Mini and is torn on what shaft weight to use, and our members have been sharing their thoughts and set ups in our forum.
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.
- PARETO: “New BRNR at 13.5. Took it over to TXG (Club Champ but TXG will always rule) in Calgary for a fit. Took the head down to 12, stuck in a Graphite Design AD at 3 wood length and 60g. Presto- numbers that rivaled my G430Max but with waaaaay tighter dispersion. Win.”
- driveandputtmachine: “Still playing a MIni 300. The head was only 208, so I ordered a heavier weight and play it at 3 wood length. I am playing a Ventus Red 70. I play 70 grams in my fairways. I use it mainly to hit draws off the tee. When I combine me, a driver, and trying to hit a draw it does not work out well most of the time. So the MIni is for that. As an aside, I have not hit the newest BRNR, but the previous model wasn’t great off the deck. The 300 Mini is very good off the deck.”
- JAM01: “Ok, just put the BRNR in the bag along side a QI10 max and a QI10 3 wood. A load of top end redundancy. But, I have several holes at my two home courses where the flight and accuracy of the mini driver helps immensely. Mine is stock Proforce 65 at 13.5, I could see a heavier shaft, but to normal flex, as a nice alternative.”

Has anyone ever bought a tee marker from a PGA tour event? Those things are really cool and I wish I could buy one.

Thanks but I have the easy part of the job. Just take 1000+ photos. AT has to look at them all, pick the best and then write something clever. That to me is the hard part.
