Ordered a new pair of glasses from the optician yesterday, on the receipt it said "lenses: special grind"

- Heck yes - would love to get some special grind wedges...wonder if I can get custom stamping too.

Other example - watching some LPGA tournament and I think Lexi Thompson got a flyer lie, she yelled "Sit! Sit!" to which my apparently well trained dog did exactly what it was told; alas the ball rolled off the back.

Wondering where else golf terminology has come up in unexpected places.

"His performance is below par."  In the office, not a good thing.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 77 - 2026-03-09 Hour of short game work at a mostly-new-to-me practice green. Trying to get some variability. Also some slow swings at the net later in the day focusing on backswing.

      Now you may not agree with these but once you get the speed dialed, super fast, true rolling greens yield a lot more holed putts from 10-15 feet range = birdies. Also, the rough wasn't terribly penal. On a separate note, it seemed Berger tried to cash in on his lead. Didn't play bad or anything but you could tell dude had already blown his load the first two days. And then Akshay stepped up. I mean the dart for the eagle was ridiculous.  Fun watch in a long time.

      Day 1 (9 Mar 26) - starting up again with a week layoff due to travels.  Played with the men’s group for the Monday shootout.  Was good to play, had some rust especially the long game, especially getting proper weight shift.

      Day 204 3-9 Wrist arch through downswing and getting wider with backswing. Need to continue working on getting trail arm "reconnected" as it still seems a bit off with wider backswing.

      Saw these today, this is a scam.  Joined in 2026.  Click his name and then his profile.  2 posts, no friends, one item for sale.  These clubs are probably takes from Temu. Facebook
