Henrik Stenson’s son shows off razor-sharp wit by hilariously roasting his father

It appears that a beautiful golf swing isn’t the only thing that Karl Stenson has inherited from his father. Known for his quick-witted humor, Henrik seemingly has passed down that endearing trait to his 11-year-old son as well.

During the PNC Championship formal dinner, Karl’s sense of humor was on full display. While being interviewed by Peter Jacobsen, the youngest participant in PNC Championship history made some comments that had the entire dining room laughing.

When Jacobsen asked Karl if he believed Team Stenson had a chance of winning the event, he quipped: “Not the way he’s playing”. Then looked over to Henrik who was laughing.
“He’s not playing well right now?” Jacobsen asked. “No, not at all,” Karl replied.

The younger Stenson then made a remark about his old man’s temper that had everyone cracking up again: “Sometimes he can get a little angry,” Karl said, “… First time … ooof.”
Henrik responded by putting his hand over Karl’s microphone and said, “That’s what I’m thinking, now don’t say anything more here.”
The Stenson’s had a great week considering Karl was the youngest player in the field. They finished at -19, good for a share of 8th place.

Greg Norman takes swipe at R&A on social media over Open Championship snub

Despite convincing nobody but himself that Greg Norman was going to play at the 150th Open Championship, the two-time champion has since stated that he is “disappointed with their (the R&A) decision.”

As continually confirmed by the ruling authorities, “The entry terms and conditions for The Open stipulate that a champion must be aged 60 or under or have won the championship in the previous 10 years to be exempt from qualifying. That remains the case for The 150th Open and we have no plans for any additional exemptions.”
At 67 years-of-age and with his last victory being 29-years ago, it would have taken an extraordinary turnaround from not only the rules committee, but also tradition, for him to get in.
However, demonstrating that he believed he was going to be offered a place, the Shark has taken a not so subtle swipe over the decision with a recent Instagram post from St. Andrews captioned:
“Prepping for no reason. But still one of my all time fav golf courses to play @thehomeofgolf.”

In a recent interview with Sky Sports, the Aussie legend stays away from the current furore over the LIV golf series, stating his application “wasn’t anything else other than a sincere ask.”
“I’m a two-time Champion Golfer of the Year.” said Norman. “It is St Andrews, one of my favourite golf courses. I’ve always sung praises about the R&A my entire – being the champion golfer of the year, right, I’ve supported them as far as I could possibly support them as a representative of being the holder of the Claret Jug.”
He continued, “So I actually thought my son and I talked about this before I even came on board with LIV and I’ve spoken to, you know, former heads of R&As to understand ‘okay, what is the process?’ And I knew that they had changed the date. But I also know other players over the age of 60 have been given an exemption, right?”
Norman’s latest interviews confirm the feelings he showed when talking to Australian Golf Digest, when commenting, “I’m disappointed with their decision, particularly given it is The 150th Open. I have been a staunch proponent of the R&A since 1977 and a proud Champion Golfer of the Year–twice.”
The interview with Sky concludes this topic with his reasons behind the ambitious request in the first place:
“So hello duh it’s a simple writing a letter to Martin Slumbers asking: ‘Hey, as a two-time Open Champion Golfer of the Year. I love St. Andrews. I love to be there for that.’ It was a full 100% sincere ask.”

Max Homa reveals his dream celebrity fourball group

Max Homa is fresh off his fourth victory on the PGA Tour, having seen off the challenge of Keegan Bradley to claim his second Wells Fargo Championship on Sunday.
The Californian has seen his star rise over the past few years, having just broken the top 30 in the Official World Golf Rankings while remaining one of the most popular players in the sport due to his humorous activity on social media.
This week, Homa was a guest on GolfWRX’s TG2 podcast where he spoke about a number of topics relating to his latest victory and his equipment setup.
The 31-year-old also got into his dream celebrity fourball, and it’s fair to say that the answers show just how big of a sporting fanatic he really is.
For those who follow Homa on Twitter, his opening choice of Green Bay Packer’s QB Aaron Rodgers will come as no surprise. The two good friends teamed up together at the 2020 AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, and Rodgers even sent a congratulatory note on Twitter to Homa following his win on Sunday.
4x Champ!!!! ????????# https://t.co/pDuPu2tqq0
— Aaron Rodgers (@AaronRodgers12) May 9, 2022
For his second selection, Homa turned to NBA star Steph Curry, who the golfer has repeatedly praised for his attempts to grow the game of golf, with the most recent being Curry’s introduction of a new junior golf tour.
Finally, Homa plumped for Tiger Woods, and when co-host Brian Knudson remarked that it was quite a group of talented golfers, the Wells Fargo champ stated: “You don’t want to be chasing golf balls all day.” Good point, Max.
Who would make your dream celebrity fourball, WRXers?

Phil Mickelson’s latest Twitter activity suggests he’s not happy that he was ‘canceled’

Phil Mickelson is back on Twitter, and he appears to be less than pleased with his ‘cancelation’.
In his first Twitter activity since February, Mickelson liked a user’s tweet that was in response to a Clay Travis tweet.
Here is the original tweet from Clay Travis, which highlights that the NBA will be playing matches next year in the UAE, a country where homosexuality is punishable by death.
Yet @PhilMickelson gets canceled…WTF
— Brandon Jones (@mustangcards) May 10, 2022
The response, which Lefty liked, was from Twitter user Brandon Jones who voiced his frustration over the uneven backlash Mickelson has received in comparison to the NBA.
The like has since been removed by Mickelson, or perhaps it was liked by mistake.
As an aside, the 51-year-old also surprisingly liked one other tweet on his return to the platform, a Yahoo report on the PGA Tour blocking the release of “rebels” Mickelson and Lee Westwood.
