I was fortunate enough to pen a story for the @usga ahead of this year's 125th @usopengolf at Oakmont. This one focuses on my personal favorite #USOpen, Ben Hogan and the 1953 U.S. Open and his "Triple Crown" season! I hope you all enjoy it! #golfhistory

Oakmont historian David Moore looks back at Ben Hogan's remarkable 1953 season that saw him capture three major titles, including the U.S. Open at Oakmont C.C.

U.S. Ryder Cup Captain Keegan Bradley serves up an all-time classy gesture in inviting Ryder Cup hero Larry Nelson to be an ambassador for Team USA.

I have four rounds over the next week at some great clubs. Excited to actually play some golf. #GolfHistory happens every day with me so more of it with some of my projects.
🚨🚨🚨#GOLFCHAT QUESTION #6🚨🚨🚨. What are your golf equipment plans for the rest of the season? Do you plan on making any new club/equipment purchases before the end of the year? #GolfChat

I like tracking my stars. The GHIN app is great for that. So I’d say get a handicap and use the GHIN app.
🚨🚨🚨#GOLFCHAT QUESTION #5🚨🚨🚨. Technology continues to evolve in the golf world and is a much bigger part of how people play the game. Do you have a favorite golf app or technology that you use? #GolfChat

I’ve been tempted by driving irons. Also tempted by these new “mini” drivers. When the driver is being uncooperative, I use a hybrid with 3 wood loft off the tee. Still hooks occasionally but I have a bit more control.
🚨🚨🚨#GOLFCHAT QUESTION #3🚨🚨🚨. Another great❓from @SpencerPI:. Have you ever been very happy with a “driving iron” (say a 2-or-3 iron/hybrid)? What brand and how are you hitting it? I had a Sim 2 and never quite got the hang of it. Is it better than your 5 wood? #GolfChat

1) I have the driver hooks so that’s always something I want out of my bag but can’t. 2) I have a Callaway Heavenwood hybrid that I got when I was in 8th grade. That club was in my bag for a very very long time. I replaced it about 3 years ago because I didn’t want it to break.
🚨🚨🚨#GOLFCHAT QUESTION #2🚨🚨🚨. A joint❓from @BillSpies1 & @Golfandbeer1 . 1) Do you have one club right now that you wish you could leave from your bag?. 2) Is there one piece of equipment that you refuse to let go of, either play with or keep it as a collectible? #GolfChat

This is pretty neat! #golfhistory.
One of the most poignant photographs in ALL of golf history:. On May 24th, 1908, Old Tom Morris died at the age of 86. 3 days later, he was buried in the St. Andrews Cathedral cemetery with his wife & children (all of whom died before Old Tom). As the funeral procession made

Wow, I am surprised but happy to see this. While Keegan has played well, I think he is more valuable leading the team than playing. That said, these guys are gonna have to go out and kick some ass, otherwise it will be questioned for a century. #RyderCup.

I am glad common sense prevailed (so far) and Ben Griffin was selected. He deserves to be there as much as any player on that team. #RyderCup.

Unless the PIF wants to spend absurd (even for them) money, I don’t see any big, Rahm-level names jumping ship.
🚨🚨🚨#GOLFCHAT QUESTION #5🚨🚨🚨. A❓from @izzy6776 who wants to stir the pot!. Now that the Tour Championship is over, will we see any PGAT golfers make the switch to LIV? If so, who? Or are we done with the LIV signings for a while? #GolfChat

This question boils down to should he pick himself and the answer is - NO. He’s in a no win situation & besides a good showing this past weekend, he hasn’t been better than most of the guys in the hunt. I don’t think him playing helps US win. I think him playing ends in US losing.
🚨🚨🚨#GOLFCHAT QUESTION #3🚨🚨🚨. The second of two Ryder Cup Captain's picks questions. Who do you think Keegan Bradley WILL pick for his Captain's picks and why? #GolfChat

JT, Cantlay, Griffin, Cam Young, Morikawa, Sam Burns. Griffin deserves it. He’s been good all year. Can Young has been so good of late. Cantlay and JT are in form and good in the format. Morikawa needs to get straight, but he’s a good ball striker and Burns is good with Scottie.
