European Golfer is attacked by a swarm of traveling hornets. Jumps in lake to escape. Stung 20+ times. Birdies hole in soaking wet clothes (changed shirt). Incredible.

Play Tot Hill Farm on the way in or out. Play Tobacco Road too.

11 year old Lucy Li qualifies for Women's US Open.

And there are actually some people who think this is 100% wrong.

Im leaving for Italy tomorrow and wanted to get them for my dad for fathers day...but hes already playing in a golf tournament up here this weekend. If he didn't have that going on I would've taken them. Thanks and can't believe you couldn't get rid of them for that price.

Yeah it was pretty bad. I'm just gonna have to scalp them. I'm not using them because my dad scored hospitality passes from his company. Of course he got those basically last minute.

Kind of a let down at Red Hawk today. Outing was going on today and they started me and a buddy on #7 (they switched the nines around) and birdied both 8 and 9 to start at -2. Then of course would go +12 the last 15 holes and card an 82 which isn't too bad but just sucks I couldn't keep it going

I get to play "Mound Builders Country Club" in Newark Ohio on the 21st for a golf outing. Really excited since it is a private club (no one golfs without a member). But at 100 dollars a person.....damn...400 for a 4sum, and that doesn't count in skins and side bets. My team is going to take the 1st 9 in stride, see how we are doing, with a plan B of getting blasted and forgetting that we are even at a country club. (Plan B hopefully will not need to go into effect)

That's pretty cheap for a private club.. but it is Newark I guess, so.

Golfnow.com is absolutely amazing, the greatest site of all time. Booked my tee time at Red Hawk for $11 the other day and am playing Forest Creason at 8:30 for the same. Absolute steals

Have you ever not used hyperbole in a post?

So it was announced earlier today that Dustin Johnson would be taking a leave of absence from the tour.

Turns out homeboy failed a drug test. Drug of choice: cocaine. It is also his 3rd failed drug test. The previous 2 were for weed and cocaine. He's been suspended 6 months.

He always seemed like a dude you'd want to go hangout with for a weekend.

He needs the PR person he had when he was younger. How many of you knew he was involved in a murder as a teen? Dude has led a pretty sketchy life.
