Good Luck: Garrigus Intends To Try A First Tee Joke On Vijay

/

Stephanie Wei quotes the likes of Matt Every, Jason Day, Justin Rose, David Lynn and Robert Garrigus on Vijay's situation and lawsuit and they aren't overly supportive of Singh.

Including first and second round Singh playing partner Garrigus kind of supported Singh by saying that the PGA Tour has"created a situation where one guy gets busted for recreational drugs and then one guy doesn’t get busted  for performance-enhancing drugs, which is messed up."

That probably won't make Vijay laugh--what does--but Garrigus is still going to try to deliver some humor to Thursday's 2 pm ET proceedings.

He’s focused on trying to win a golf tournament, but Garrigus, who is friendly and gregarious, said he’ll probably make a joke out of it with Singh on the first tee on Thursday to keep things light.

“I have a feeling there’s going to be a lot of security guards with our group (the next two days),” he said.

Beljan's Back On Twitter And Complaining He's Not In Masters!

/

Once-retired PGA Tour Tweeter and recovering low blood sugar sufferer Charlie Beljan has returned to Twitter in a big way. He responded to former 420 arrestee Matt Every's Tweet about the Masters field makeup. Beljan appears displeased this his Disney win last year--labeled by one scribe as the four most remarkable rounds of golf ever played--did not earn him a spot in the field.

These guys are good!

 

Bubba Wants To Bring The Hovercraft To Isleworth

/

I was hoping the defending champion would threaten to drive the Oakley-created golf course hovercraft down Magnolia Lane, but he has more reasonable aspirations for the landspeeder.

Brian Wacker reports.

“I’ll have to see if it’s practical to have at the house,” Watson said. “And if they’ll let me bring it on the golf course (at Isleworth).”

Not A Late April Fools Video: The Bubbacraft Is Here And It's Every Superintendent's Worst Nightmare

Thanks to Pete the Luddite for sending Shane Bacon's post and the accompanying video for Bubba Watson's Oakley sponsored hovercraft golf cart designed to revolutionize the golf cart. It bears an uncanny resemblance to Luke Skywalker's Tatooine landspeeder.

Warning golf course supers, you'll want to cover your eyes watching this video.

And speaking of Bubba, Scott Michaux's annual and always in-depth profile of the defending Masters champion has been posted by the Augusta Chronicle.

Dufner: I Was Doing Relaxation & Concentration...For The Kids

/

Doug Ferguson drills down on the details of the Jason Dufner photo and slouch, revealing that Dufner was engaged in the increasingly dying art of defending champions duties in Dallas, something most players phone in these days. Literally.

There is also the claim of Dufner at the topic at the time was relaxation and concentration, not that he denies the body language was anything but his normal look.

"They were talking about focusing and relaxation," Dufner said, a master at the latter. "They have some big test coming up for the class on ways to relax and concentrate. And I guess I took it to another level."

Deadspin has posted the winners of their Photoshop contest and once again, as with Tiger and Lindsey, the bin Laden raid inset made me laugh hardest.

Meanwhile Jason Gore offered his best Dufnering shot on Twitter. Jason is looking svelt these days though I don't remember such dental issues.

Next Stop On The Charlie Beljan Low Blood Sugar Attack Tour!

/

Amazingly, NBC News continues to perpetuate the saga of Charlie Beljan's "panic attack" from last fall's Disney event, the same "attack" that came after not ingesting food for 20 hours.

In my day, not eating for that long and feeling faint on the course would be a low blood sugar or energy issue. But these days it's a panic attack.

Thanks to reader DTF for warning me about Friday's Rock Center maudlinfest...and I love Mary Carillo, but this is absurd:
