11 Revealing photos from The Barclays
GolfWRX was live this week from The Barclays at Plainfield C.C. in Edison, N.J., as the FedExCup Playoffs got underway. If you missed any of the galleries from this week, make sure to catch up on them below:
Playoffs. Don’t talk about playoffs. Playoffs?!
Sorry, but we are indeed talking about the FedExCup Playoffs, where the winner gets $10 million. So while the PGA Tour guys are grinding over 3-footers for millions and millions of dollars, I’ll be here revealing some photos.
Welcome to the playoff version of Revealing Photos.
“Chuckie 3 Sticks” needs a nickname tweak
He seems to have a new gamer putter every week, and he’s usually tinkering with at least two other putters.
This week he’s testing a few PXG putters, and last time he teed it up at the PGA Championship he was gaming a Scotty Cameron prototype. As gear heads we should all have sympathy for him; he’s truly one of us.
And for his tinkering habit with putters, we shall call him Chuckie 3 FlatSticks.
I wonder what Patrick Reed is listening to?
Maybe it’s that song from the most insufferable commercial in golf…
Also, Reed is testing a new Odyssey Big T putter, which looks to be a Reed-only version. Off-the-shelf Big T putters have the company’s Fusion RX insert, but his has a White Hot Pro insert.
When you’re a top-5 player in the world, you get any insert you want.
There’s a reason Snedeker is one of the best putters on Tour
It looks like he burned a hole through the sweet spot of his White Hot putter insert. It’s easier to be consistent when you never miss the center of the club face.
Weekly sneaker heat
Who would have thought you’d be making your next sneaker purchase based on a photo of Jason Dufner? He’s wearing the LeBron 12 low white “USA” shoes on the putting green, which you should consider adding to your collection.
Why is Dufner wearing LeBron’s? Maybe because LeBron James plays basketball for the Cleveland Cavs, and Jason Dufner was born in Cleveland, Ohio.
Just a thought.
Will McGirt’s all white Nippon N.S. Pro Prototype shafts
I wonder if you’re allowed to swing white shafts after Labor Day, or if that’s still considered a fashion faux pas.
Spieth really is the Golden Boy
Even the cops love him.
And if anyone was looking for the rat on the PGA Tour, we may have found him. He’s clearly working as an informant.
Plus Spieth’s hands, they never shake… ever.
Isn’t it ironic?
Canadian Graham Delaet’s name displayed right below a Dunkin’ Donuts “America Runs on Dunkin” ad? Do they even dunk their donuts north of the border?
SeeMore’s three putter sizes…
SeeWayMore, SeeMore, SeeLess.
But seriously, they’re (from left-to-right) the SeeMore Giant FGP, SeeMore FGP and the SeeMore Mini Giant.
You can see inside Cobra’s new King LTD driver
And, in case you were wondering, three golf balls fit inside the SpacePort.
The color scheme looks dangerously similar to Rickie Fowler’s Porsche. Coincidence?

A photo of a sign that says no cameras…
Well played, Greg (our Tour photographer).
Help me caption this photo
I am whatever GolfWRX needs me to be. And for now, that means leaving this amazing image for the people of GolfWRX to caption.
In the comments, give us your best Batman quote, and see if you can tie it into golf, Titleist or Scotty Cameron.

Nice job, AT. I thought you’d like the photo of the no cameras sign. Thought the Dunkin sign might warrant a Tim Hortons mention. Keep up the great work each week
