“The four most beautiful words in our common language: I told you so.” Gore Vidal was the most engaging man I ever knew. He died 13 years ago today.

A day wandering the countryside where I grew up. Dublin tomorrow, then home.
So much well-informed truth here from a man who grew up in Northern Ireland and so has a real understanding of often stark realities 👇

Evening walk.
One of my favorite places, as seen from United 23 on final approach to Dublin this morning: Portmarnock Golf Club

A wonderful dinner in Boston with one of my favorite people and writers, Jennifer Haigh. Her new novel, Rabbit Moon, has been chosen as April’s book of the month by Barnes & Noble. 👏

Asked Bones Mackay on Live From about caddie's nearest pin contest on 17 on Wednesdays. In '93 he used Bob Estes' club & pulled it into the water. Jeff Sluman arrived so Bones took his 7 iron & flew his second try into the hole. It was the second shot Mickelson ever saw him hit.

Jay Monahan gave a press conference for one man. But will he listen? golfweek.usatoday.com/story/sports...
The Arnold Palmer Invitational has become a poor way of honoring Arnold Palmer. golfweek.usatoday.com/story/sports...
Round one at Bay Hill was a reminder of why sports psychology exists. golfweek.usatoday.com/story/sports...
I’m gravely concerned for Rolfing since this is a one-hour show.
Q&A: Jay Monahan on the state of negotiations, the role of Donald Trump, and learning from his critics. golfweek.usatoday.com/story/sports...
The Backyard at MacArthur G.C. Front 9: lose 5 balls, shoot a million. Back 9: shoot even par. 🤷♂️🙄🔫
Hoping the reverberations from this stripe show don’t distract the Tour guys across the street at PGA National.
LIV golfers returning to the PGA Tour won’t need a bus. A small sedan will suffice. golfweek.usatoday.com/story/sports...

South Carolina looking and feeling a little Irish today.
Congaree Golf Club, South Carolina.
One has earned one’s glass of wine this evening. One’s instructor has earned a vineyard for his forbearance.
Received a momentarily bewildered look from a United check-in agent when she asked if my luggage contained any hazardous materials and I tapped my golf bag and said, “Yup, 14 of ‘em.”
Publicly flattering Donald Trump becomes the PGA Tour’s lesser evil. golfweek.usatoday.com/story/sports...
That’s a wrap on Golf Today shows from the WM Phoenix Open. Always a fun (and loud) week on Tour.
I could think about living in this town, if only Chamblee lived somewhere else.
As quiet as it will be all week by our set at TPC Scottsdale.
One of the best hangs in golf: Whisper Rock, Scottsdale.
Last night the pint-sized provocateur Chamblee opened Golf Central by showing this on screen and wondering aloud which Irishman didn’t make an ace yesterday. 😔 Perhaps mine comes this weekend in Scottsdale.
RIP, Marianne Faithfull. youtu.be/d0NxhFn0szc?...
The PGA Tour puts a high value on players’ time. Not so much on ours. golfweek.usatoday.com/story/sports...
Friends of Dan Baker raised glasses in his memory last night in Orlando, five weeks after his passing in a car accident. He was a good man who left behind a lot of friends, good memories and tales of ill-timed snap hooks.
This is an excellent look at the state of the game via the former CEO of the PGA
Yesterday I sat with former PGA of America CEO Seth Waugh. We talked about his taking away Donald Trump's major, how the PGA needs to reform, selling the Ryder Cup and whether Jay Monahan is doing a good job. golfweek.usatoday.com/story/sports...
Annual reminder to those packing for next week’s PGA Show: wearing pants that don’t conform to these parameters will have you subject to forcible removal.
When everyone is too intimidated to hit next to you.

My friend Jerry was just served this “Guinness” in Arizona. I’m not a beer drinker and don’t believe in capital punishment, but….

In the anchor chair today for Golf Central, including interviewing the departing LPGA tour commissioner Mollie Marcoux Samaan.
Golf’s new TGL league has bravado and billionaire backers, but does it have a future? golfweek.usatoday.com/story/sports...
I just bought some tennis balls and the store clerk asked, “Are these for you or for your dog?” I have never felt less athletic. 😔
And professional golfers think they aren’t paid enough. 😂 Bull-riding at the Garden, NYC
We try anew.
2024 was a great year if you’re a top PGA Tour player. Not so much for everyone else. golfweek.usatoday.com/story/sports...
2024's 18-hole rounds: Windsor Club, Whisper Rock, CC of Orlando, Plainfield CC, Crail, Old Course, Ridgewood CC, Congaree, Diamante El Cardonal, Diamante Dunes, Seminole, Ocean Course (Costa Rica) 13 rounds total, more than '20-'23 combined. Aiming for many more in '25 🤞
No. 17, 0cean Course. Peninsula Papagayo, Costa Rica.
Two logos for our friend, Dan Baker. A PGA of America veteran, he was a member of Mountain Lake and for years ran the Travelers Championship. He was tragically killed in a car crash this weekend. Dan was a great guy and leaves behind an army of friends who will miss him. RIP
My old Vanity Fair colleague and friend, Christopher Hitchens, who died 13 years ago today.

Tom Kite turns 75 today. No one ever played better for longer at Augusta National without winning. A few years ago, I talked with Kite about the special burden of trying to win the Masters. golfweek.usatoday.com/2018/04/01/1...
< 2018 2024 > My nephew still trying to put me in the festive spirit. Futile effort. 😂
Fascinating tale of a bird that has outlived the ornithologist who began tracking her in 1956.
Had an impromptu chance this week to see SoFi Arena, where the TGL matches take place starting next month. It’s a hugely impressive feat of golf-nerd engineering.

A Diamante quirk that confounds many of my female friends: leather headrests above the urinals. 😂
When the range music conflicts with your attitude to golf. 😂
