Andy won the media lottery this year and got to play Augusta National… Well worth a quick read.

Thanks for that Erik. Pretty good read. I don’t agree with his idea to play with a Persimmon driver for a one time chance at Augusta…but power to him: Enjoyed it.

I understand his logic. Plus, that's what he's been playing for > 1 year. And they were playing the member tees.

That’s a good read. He’s got a story for the rest of his life - and he immortalized it in writing 😃

      Day 67: back at it after a day off. Played 9 holes and did about an hour of range work. Filmed and checked on my priority piece. Think I’m doing some parts better and other parts worse. The 9 holes weren’t great - shot +7 - and everything was roughly a B-.

      Day 609 - 2026-06-02 Was going to play, but the course was very obviously going to be slow, so went to the range instead. And even got (sorry @DeadMan), some putting practice in. Mostly got help at the range (a set of eyes), and mostly helped someone else at the putting green.

      Day 273 6‐2 more reconnecting the arm infront. Wrist arching through swing. Its looking better than it was, but no where close to where it needs to be. For some reason having trouble with the arching lately.

      Day 2 (2 Jun 26) - worked on keeping arms connected to torso by using stretch band.  Hit 1/4 backswing shots to reinforce the feel of the connection.

      Carl Pettersson is the Pancake Zone. The Swedish Pancake Club, Ranked - Fried Egg Golf Keegan Bradley just won his fifth PGA Tour event and became the latest member of the Swedish Pancake Club. Here's a ranking of that exclusive group. It's his sixth win in a decent length career. He's nondescript. I think it says he doesn't make waves, wins some second-tier events, hasn't had many close finishes in the top three in majors… and that only hard-core golfers follow the week-to-week. P.S. Five wins as personified by Carl Pettersson is the Pancake Zone. From Shotgun Start, I should say. It's not Carl per se, it's five wins.
