Only I could forget his name. It’s really a wonder I have 7 followers. Let along 200K. Marcus Plunkett.
Well boys, y-all playing for second. https://t.co/4CLkbTtPFl
On Sunday former West Point grad and 5 year Army veteran finished up the Open Championship after making the cut in the first Major he’s ever played. What did he do to celebrate? He got on a flight to Tampa Florida that landed at 5pm last night. “Stopped at Dicks to buy a push cart” and arrived in Valdosta Georgia at 10pm for an Australian Tour Q-school that started today. He shot -1 and is T10. I asked if he was tired and he admitted he was but then said “I love it man, nothing beats it”
I love that someone is mad that the CIMB Classic is gone. Makes my day, that’s true nerd stuff. https://t.co/oDs53EFHSB

Some of the comments on this post are ridiculous The dude has played pro golf for 15 years for a moment like Sunday. Meanwhile his family was back in Florida. He wants to go celebrate the biggest professional moment of his life with the people who supported him before anyone knew his name. It’s not disrespectful to 3M it’s being respectful to his family who are very much a huge part of his success. “He mAdE a CoMmiTmENT”. Yeah, he did, then he won the Open Championship and he’d like to go have a beer or 40 and hang w his wife and kids. And to be clear “he made a commitment” means he clicked a box in an app a few weeks ago, saying he was committed. He did so likely because at the time he was 59th in points and wanted to move up as much as possible. After Sunday that wasn’t necessary. 99% of golf fans didn’t care prior to Sunday he was in the 3M field but now people are mad he’s not? If you want to be mad at anyone, I’d suggest the PGA Tour for sticking the 3M w the week after the open championship. Rant over.
