"Its ok that we disagree. I think I look at this from a wider lens. The Elder incident with his son followed by his sons lifetime ban didnt help. Mr. Player calling the Masters the 4th best major while being an honorary starter was not a great look. And now this. Gary has had a rocky go with the Masters and some of that may come from how he wasnt given the same treatment as Palmer and Nicklaus. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2022124331367604571 https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2022124331367604571"

"I am a member of a couple of private courses. My advice to guests is fairly simple- when in doubt error conservative. Scenario #1 A couple of months ago I invited someone to join me at Belleair. That person showed up with a knock-off Titleist hat (shown below). The worst part- I didnt even notice the hats embroidery until after the round in the parking lot and my heart sank. I had introduced him to several female members and our head pro. I spent the rest of my day writing formal apologies to our pro and the members introduced my guest to- explaining that I didnt see it until after the round."

"I said this on the @talkingolf history podcast. If you are attending the [----] Walker Cup in person I would strongly suggest reading or rereading Mark Frosts book The Match. Even if you have read it before its worth it before experiencing Cypress Point. You can also get the audio book. Trust me on this one and thank me later. #GolfHistory @USGA"

"When you go to Pinehurst and you see this logo- just know it came from my idea. I wore my Belleair Black Fox squirrel logo there 1-2 years ago and the merch folks loved it - took photos of it and said they were going to do it. So happy they loved it and a bit disappointed that Belleair passed on it. Love the squirrel Pinehurst - great work @PinehurstResort"
