ListenA 39-year-old part-time taxi driver without electricity or running water makes the cut in a pro event with decades-old clubs.
ListenAlex made a mistake. A big one. It cost him his job. But one bad decision shouldn’t erase a career spent fighting for others.
Ryan French and Mark Baldwin talk about Ciganda's comments and getting revenge on Kupcho; Europe winning the Solheim Cup; a former teacher getting in contention at Champions Tour; results from Korn Ferry Tour, Epson Tour and DP World Tour; and Monday Q's upcoming week at The Golf Party.
Tomorrow there could be one of the most unlikely @ChampionsTour winners ever. Monday Q Jay Jurecic is tied for the lead with Zach Johnson headed into the final round. Jurecic was a school teacher for decades in a tiny little town in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. He didn't play high school golf or college golf and didn't even attempt the game until he was 18. He became good relative quickly but teaching and the fact he lived in UP of Michigan aren't conducive to getting better. Yet somehow he did…and then some. In fact he would spend his summers on the Dakotas Tour playing mini-tour events. And he had a win and numerous good finishes. When he turned 50 in 2021 he resigned from teaching and started chasing the Champions Tour. But he's only qualified for 3 events in five years. Between those events he played wherever he could. The guy is a true grinder. Last season he won the Michigan Tournament of Champions, most the players were 30 years younger than him. He did it by making eagle on the last hole when his 3-wood from 260 hit the flag and be tapped I'm for eagle to tie for the lead. He then won in a playoff. Tomorrow a former teacher from a tiny town in the UP of Michigan, who didn't play high school or college golf, and in just his 4th ever Champions event will tee off tied for the lead. If that doesnt make you love Monday Qs, well I can't help you.
I was just sent a video of someone going hammer on a club pro because they couldn't get caddies (the club has very limited caddies in the fall once kids go back to school). The person was wildly out of line and I would post it but I don't want the person who shot the video to get in trouble. But I feel so bad for club pros. 95% of people are great at clubs, the 5% outweights the 95% and its not close. Give up your summers, your weekends, your holidays and get bitched at by people who will never be happy. Every club pro deserves a raise.

On today's AGM we discussed the Solheim Cup, how to us any debate or controversy is great. The Kupcho - Ciganda is a rivalry that we hope is still going in 2 years and much more. Also talk KFT and Champions S: https://t.co/O7IO1Shke4 A: https://t.co/HD2C9Ci1q6 https://t.co/DLLfgFqfZy
So far just a standard Frontier flight over to Las Vegas (I'm going to Cali) - Dad and two babies sitting next to man not with him. -Mom asked to switch w said man. He says no. Said man paid extra to sit towards the front, mom has aisle seat near the back - Mom gets pissed. - Flight attendants gets pissed at mom getting pissed. - woman behind said man lets mom take her seat. - woman who agreed to switch gets moved to empty middle seat next to me. -Flight attendant comes up to woman next to me. I'm thinking she was going to thank her. -instead flight attendant says “that woman has been rude to everyone this morning, we are delayed because of her” -we are in fact delayed because of her. - discount airlines are great for content. - I'll update in 4 hours as there is no wi-fi on Frontier flights.
