Now that all four majors have been played. I was wondering what The Sand Trappers favorite storyline from the majors was...

It doesn't necessarily have to be the winners.

Mine was the duel between Henrik Stenson and Phil Mickelson at the Open at Royal Troon.

What's yours?

What's in Shane's Bag?

Awards, Achievements, and Accolades

1.  PMick/Stenson for sure.....

2.  USGA showing (again and again) that it is both ignorant and incompetent 

3.  DJ's coming out party

4.  Speith's meltdown

5.  Rory's poor play overall

6.  Walker/Willet win first major (tie)

I'll go with DJ winning his first when it comes to the men's game. It was long overdue, and I was happy to see it! 

That being said, my favorite 2016 major moment in all of golf was Brooke Henderson outdueling Lydia Ko and plenty others to win the Women's PGA. Fantastic final round and finish by the ladies!

Danny Willett winning the Masters, partly because an unexpected first time winner is always exciting, partly because he's a Brit, partly because Spieth's collapse was great drama.

Obviously Stenson Vs Michelson is right up there as well.


1. The duel at Royal Troon 2016
2. Spieth's Collapse and Willet's bogey free final round at Augusta
3. DJ winning his first major
4. USGA making the correct call at the US Open :-D

Spieth's meltdown.If you watched it live it was a real jaw dropper.The commentators couldn't find words.

Danny Willett's brother on Twitter was hilarious when this was going on.


I'm undecided.  Phil vs Stenson?  That was great.  I also love how Willett was almost going to miss the Masters and instead won it.

He was brilliant! I hope Willett keeps on top so we can hear from his brother again!

Rory's focus on working out instead of being a good golfer is by far my favorite story line.
