\"Hittin Welcome, welcome, welcome to Hittin’ the Links<\/em>! Jhonny Vegas is your weekly PGA Tour winner, as he grinded out a victory at the Canadian Open at Glen Abbey, shooting a 64 on the final day. He got some help, as we’ll see, from an ill-timed bladed bunker shot on the 72nd hole by Steve Wheatcroft.<\/p>\n

We’ll also look forward to the PGA Championship, get to know Beef Johnston, and whatever you do, do not click the fourth link. Just don’t do it. All that, plus a new weekly segment for hole #9. <\/p>\n

Let’s hit the links.
\n
\nHole #1: Jhonny Vegas Wins in Canada<\/strong>
\nFor the 62nd year in a row, a Canadian failed to win the Canadian Open, ask Jhonny Vegas closed with a round of 64 at Glen Abbey Golf Club. Also, there’s no way he’s actually 31 years old. Zero chance. 26 at most. [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole #2: Wheatcroft Blades Bunker Shot on 72nd Hole<\/strong>
\nNeeding an up-and-down to force a playoff, Steve Wheatcroft … well, just watch. [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole #3: Pairings for the PGA Announced<\/strong>
\nHot off the presses! [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole #4: Do Not Click This Link<\/strong>
\nDon’t do it. I’m begging you, please do not do it. You don’t want to know what one Charles Barkley scorecard looks like, let alone three of them. Please don’t do it. [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole #5: Beef’s Crib<\/strong>
\nTake a stroll through Open Championship standout Andrew “Beef” Johnston’s house. [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole #6: Recapping Nicklaus’ Win at the 1967 U.S. Open at Baltusrol<\/strong>
\nJack Nicklaus won twice at Baltusrol, as a 27-year-old and a 40-year old. Take a look back, before you take a look forward to this coming week. [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole #7: Nicholas Lindheim Wins on Web.com Tour<\/strong>
\nHe’s likely to be full-time on the PGA Tour next year, so you better learn the name. [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole #8: Alfonso Ribiero, Stephen Curry, and Justin Timberlake Dance at Charity Outing<\/strong>
\nFor what should be your daily dose of Carlton… [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n

Hole #9: Weekly Tiger Nostalgia Link<\/strong>
\nIn what is going to be a new weekly segment, Hole #9 will be a link to a classic post from the Tiger Woods archives (a.k.a. my hard drive). For the first week, I’m going to break my own rules a bit and link to video highlights from the 2005 Masters final round. [Link<\/a>]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
