Fighting Illini alumnus Tommy Kuhl has been struggling in the pro golf ranks since turning pro. He Monday qualified this year into the ISCO Championship and just Monday qualified for the Pinnacle Bank Championship on Korn Ferry Tour. He talks about dealing with anxiety, the challenges of pro golf, and the importance of building a support system to keep the game in perspective.
It’s good to see Harold Varner have a good week on LIV. I’ve always been a fan of his. I’ve said many times but his statement when he left for LIV was truthful and straightforward. He thanked the PGA Tour and said the offer to leave was too good to pass up. He also runs a foundation that has done amazing things in the Carolinas.
According to multiple people I spoke with Michael Block walked off the course in the Senior European Tour event after the 12th hole today in the final round of the PGA Seniors According to the multiple people I spoke with, the word in the locker room was he didn't say anything to his playing partners. Multiple people said it was known Block was frustrated with the course conditions. This morning he showed up to his tee time late and was given a two-stroke penalty. He shot an opening nine of 43 and after a bogey on 12, he walked in. On the leaderboard he is listed as a DQ. He was in the field on a sponsors exemption.
Ryan French and Mark Baldwin talk about Baldwin's comeback at the scorching Arizona Open -- and take social media questions: the next wave of players, whether Speith will win again, Blades Brown's choices, and LIV 2.0.
It’s been a long summer for @markbaldwin1 It’s hard to play free when the bills keep piling up. The Arizona was make or break time. Mark told me last week “I need some signs that I still can play”. Well he got them. For the 3rd yr in a row he finishes runner up at the AZ Open. And since amateur Cody Massa won he gets to split first-third place money with Jimmy Hard K and Trevor Lewis. A very important $16,000 check on the way. Super happy for a great friend. Awesome event as always run by the @SWSectionPGA

Imagine how rich I’d be if I made $41,000 (which is what he will make this week) every time I fired an 82. https://t.co/aMfayNnjY8
At this point it’s not me forgetting to put out a tweet asking for questions, this is just the time I ask for questions. So send some questions for the pod. Playoff (don’t watch em). KFT playoffs, LIV, building an apartment in my garage for my mom, whatever. Fire away
Caleb Surratt and Bubba Watson both playing well at the DP event in Denmark. If LIV shuts down those two would likely not have a place to play next season so important 36 holes ahead for them. Surratt 2 back currently, Bubba 3 back.
H/t to @RoyLangIII for heads up.
