Top 100 best golfers of all time!
I can't help but be a huge Bryson DeChambeau fan! Love that guy and everything he does for golf. I obviously respect the all time greats, and Tiger will always be my GOAT, but my favorite golfer is Bryson.

And people think autism is new! 🤣

This footage is real but not from the Windows 95 launch event (which featured Jay Leno hosting on a different stage with Bill Gates in a different shirt). It is from a separate earlier Microsoft sales/motivational event and is frequently misattributed.

Casting Jack Nicholson’s son Ray Nicholson in SMILE 2 (2024) almost feels unfair. The smile alone does half the work. The movie knew exactly what it was doing.

There’s a mix of arrogance & ignorance from America golf people that if it didn’t happen on US soil - it hasn’t happened at all! It was the thing I found most baffling in my 15 years broadcasting golf in America. Surprised Kaymer was as cordial as he was.

ICE IN HIS VEINS! ❄️
Is this the greatest final over in cricket history? 🤯 West Indies needed just 4 runs with 3 wickets in hand. Enter Charl Langeveldt.
3 wickets. 1 hat-trick. 1-run victory.
The silence in Barbados was deafening.
Who remembers watching this live? 🤯🤯🔥

It’s an odd one because I fully get where Care is coming from and have a lot of time for that viewpoint. But then you look at a guy like Pierre Schoeman - the most Afrikaans guy you could imagine - who has so wholeheartedly and fully thrown himself into Scotland and embraced being Scottish. There’s no simple answers but I think it is odd to make special exemptions for certain players.

🇿🇦⚽🥹😭💚💃🕺 Bafana Bafana have done it! Against all odds and self-inflicted pain and docked points, Hugo Broos' men are off to the 2026 FIFA World Cup in North America.

Here’s a good look at the entire Rose-Bryson-caddie situation from No. 15. Proper golf dust-up, starts with an aimpoint routine:

If youre a good miler and you go run a slow marathon because every else is, that is not stepping up. It is very much stepping down!
Moving up in distance is not stepping up. We step up in performance. Running further is not a step up.
Slow marathon to fast 10k = step up 🙌

Asked the R&A about its gnarly drop zones. Their take:
"We don’t want hitting the ball towards a grandstand to be a bail out option and therefore, where possible, we ensure that the dropping zones are not overly generous."

By now you've heard @McIlroyRory once shot a 61 at Royal Portrush as an amateur.
Possibly one of the greatest rounds ever played.
But have you heard the full story?
I took a deep dived into that round 🧵

One player’s spirit can reignite collective passion — and for our sports journalist Michael Sherman, the selfless late Diogo Jota, reminds him why he fell in love with the club as a young boy — You’ll never walk alone, Diogo.
