It's about being selective, and it's the same thing with the general public. ![]() We had a chipping contest for 30 minutes the other day – you can't get Sloane to do anything for 30 minutes! Sloane is eight years old now and her competitive nature is kicking up. Right now, the mini golf is a great way for them to pick up a golf club, roll some putts, or go out to the yard to have a chipping contest. ![]() Or go to the golf course and play 18 holes – they can get bribed with some Sprite and some candy, but they're not going to last that long. Let's watch it, dad! No, that's not gonna happen. I know that I can't put the PGA Tour on TV and expect that my kids are gonna be like, Oh, yes, they're only on hole six. I see my kids and they're down to watch Steph Curry's Holey Moley mini-golf show. I think that their heart is in the right place, to grow the game and to ensure that the next generation has an outlet that we're reaching the youth in different ways. Greatness! We're partnering with the greats like Tiger and Rory, along with a bunch of musicians and others. Lastly, rumour has it you're getting involved with TMRW Sports and the TGL. That's just not the case now: people are figuring it out on their own via the internet. You had to be at a country club or be able to afford a couple of hundred dollars an hour for lessons. It was a lot more challenging, and it's the same with golf. You don't need a lot of money, you can do it on an app on your phone, whereas to actually get it to sound good in the past you needed to spend thousands of dollars and have floppy disks. look at production and music and how easy it is to make a beat now. You have Full Swing, you have big YouTubers – people seem to be really enjoying it for what it is now, and democratising the game. There is a greater appetite for golf these days. All of a sudden the golf gods were like, Ah, yes, he remembers! Alright, we'll give him a pure drive. Getting out into Europe and really zoning in on enjoying the day, regardless of the outcome, is what brought me back. It takes practice, it takes reps and even that doesn't guarantee any sort of success. It was brutal – for the first time in the four years I've been playing, I realised why people quit this game. I used to shoot in the low 80s, but all of a sudden, I'm back shooting 100. It was frustrating at first to start back up because it felt like I had no idea what I was doing again. It's more about the mental hurdle of accepting whatever it is. You get good breaks, you get bad breaks you thought you hit the fairway and it turns out that you're right up against the collar of some thick rough and you're just like, Oh my God, I finally pounded a driver, and it's gonna do this? Yes, life is gonna do that! The game owes you nothing life owes you nothing. When you're on your own, it's you versus yourself, isn't it? I do love those moments to go out with one other person or a foursome and just kick it and have fun – all end up sucking and decide by the back nine that we're gonna play a best ball scramble instead, forget the scorecards and just enjoy the moment. When we're on tour, I golf with my best friend and manager a lot and I go out with homies for sure, but that's a special day of golf. OK, I'm going! No one I know wants to golf as much as I do. I don't plan anything, so I'll think Oh, can I squeeze in seven holes? Yes, I can. I would say mostly I play by myself, and that's because of my schedule. ![]()
