Oh bull. Your own stupid theory was shot down so now you're trying to act as if you were secretly looking to prove something else? Get real.

Honestly, if he's doing some good for the game, I fail to see why you're getting your panties up in a bunch about him being on the cover of a magazine. I also read the article, and it has a lot to do with golf, so I don't understand why you're being such a snide jackass about the whole thing.

I pretty much agree with what everyone else has said so far.

However, it's been mentioned a couple of times already and I'll repeat it:

JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE IS HOSTING A PGA EVENT LESS THAN ONE WEEK FROM TODAY.

http://www.jtshrinersopen.com/

That was the main reason he was featured in the magazine. The added benefit is that he, himself enjoys playing the game and is rather good at it. Beyond that, as others have mentioned, he's pumped millions into bettering the game.

This was not an attempt to bring young people to the game through JT, this was simply interviewing the celebrity host of an upcoming PGA Tour event.

Plain as day.
In the bag:
Driver: `09 Launcher (10.5º) w/ Fujikura Fit-On Red Stiff
3 Wood: `09 Launcher w/ Fujikura Fit-On Red Stiff shaft
3 Hybrid (20.5º): `09 Launcher w/ Fujikura Fit-On Red Stiff Shaft

JYB, mang you've got some pretty strong anger about 'things' and I think you are aiming it in the wrong direction. You need to chill out out and reassess.

Seriously.

Justin Timberlake on the cover of GD is not a symbol of everything that's wrong in the world.

What's in my bag:
Cleveland Hibore XLS Monster Driver
TourEdge Exotics 2,3,4 hybrid irons
Tommy Armour 845cs Silverbacks 5-PW
Assorted wedges, Ping Scottsdale Anser

Whether intended or not, it's hard to dispute that JT gets kids to the golf course....

FAR more interesting than the Justin Timberlake story were the two golf architecture related articles by Ron Whitten in the same issue:

"Bunker Mentality"
a pictorial essay on various bunker styles.

"Big Mac, Little Greens + Wide-Open Spaces"
A look at modern course design and its links to the past with emphasis on the pioneering style of C.B. Macdonald and some of his "template" holes.

This statement is an attempt bailing out on the discussion because you have realized you have lost this debate and look like a complete jackass.

Who does she love?

My guess would be Adam Scott, but the answer remains shrouded in mystery.

great, go ahead and keep sucking celebrities off in this bullcrap american celebrity driven culture.

Wow, such vehemence. Probably just a troll, but I'll take a bite.

Yeah, he's more talented, rich, good looking, etc. than I (and 99.9% of the world) will ever be, but he loves golf, just like all of us here. He knows the elation when you pure a shot and feels the frustration after playing poorly. If he wants to make golf cool, than I'm on his side, not on the side of a seemingly bitter golf crony. BTW, his real name is "Justin Randall Timberlake". Have fun, JG

      Yea Club Rat said it. I really enjoyed the Senator and the Judge, then over to Grand National where there a couple good courses plus a fun par 3. The one I do play whenever I visit there is Ross Bridge; something about this course that is just good fun. I hope to play more of the courses in the future, but tomorrow is promised to no one, so hope is the key word. Have Fun, iSank

      Eh. He broke ONE of Tiger's records. Youngest to be ranked #1 in AJGA. It didn't help that Tiger's birthday is in late December, or that Tiger didn't play many AJGA events before he was 15. Did he do any of these things?

      Day 56: 4/19/2024 Okay, even though I'll be teeing it up in a tournament in less than a week. I couldn't find time to get to the range today.  I spent time on the indoor putting mat.  And I spent time in front of the mirror with my 7 iron. Then again later with the driver.  I also thoroughly cleaned all my clubs.
