Rise and shine! It’s Monday, and the Breakfast Ball Buffet is here to distract you from the fact that you’ve got five days until the weekend. Grab your fork, because here’s today’s lineup ↓
The Presidents Cup delivered 🇺🇸
How ‘bout the Kim’s? 🇰🇷
RIP Magnolia Lane

The Presidents Cup delivered 🇺🇸
The Presidents Cup got off to such a brutal start that I was regretting my decision of booking flights to Montreal for the weekend.
The Americans came out guns a-blazing and went up 5-0 after Thursday, and the fact that Keegan was the one to close out the day for the Americans was just awesome ↓
WHAT A PUTT!
A dominant 5-0 session for the U.S. Team is capped off by @Keegan_Bradley's emphatic walk-off winner.

By some miracle, the Internationals reverse swept on Friday, which was the first time that’s ever happened in a Ryder or Presidents Cup.
Si Woo Kim inserted the dagger on the 18th green on Friday, which is fitting considering the top 3 moments of the week were all from him ↓
That was nothing short of an ass kicking. Wrapping up a historically great day for the Internationals at Royal Montreal.
The Presidents Cup has serious life.

When Saturday came around, it felt like a Chiefs game where they’re down 14 going into halftime against a below average team. You just knew the Americans were still gonna win.
While were on the topic of the boys, my boys and I showed up to Royal Montreal at 6 AM to get a prime spot on the first tee, and lemme tell you, it was the most electric few hours of my life.
The Americans won the morning session 3-1, and the afternoon wave was even more electric (and chippy).
The Americans won it 3-1 as well, but the Kim² vs. Cantlay/Schaffele match was absolute fireworks start to finish.
There’s too manyI mean the fact that all three of these things happened in the span of 45 minutes in the same match was a gift from the golf gods ↓

CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?!

A clutch birdie on 18 to win the match.

An 11-7 lead is nearly impossible to come back from, especially when the far superior team is the one with 11 points.
There was some hope early on Sunday for a potential comeback, but that hope was quickly gone with the Americans birdieing 15 of their first 32 holes, including this stupidity from the world number one ↓

I’m done spamming y’all with highlights, but as fun as Sunday was, it ended up being a bloodbath with Keegan Bradley clinching the cup for the Americans.
From not making the Ryder Cup team to cinching USA’s winning point for the Presidents Cup, a lot can change in a year.

The golf gods have been waiting to give Keegan Bradley a clinching moment since the 2012 Ryder Cup.
We know how much these team competitions mean to him, how he thought after last year's Ryder Cup that he'd never get another chance. Gets shock captaincy, plays his way onto this team. What a ride.

How ‘bout the Kim’s? 🇰🇷
Tom Kim and Si Woo Kim. These two were the unsung heroes of the weekend. Actually, they’re the sung heroes. They were awesome.
Both of them have become the reincarnated version of Ryder Cup Ian Poulter. They bring both their games and attitude to the underdog team every time.
Tom Kim drained 30+ footers from all over the damn place all week, and was THE guy for getting the home crowd pumped up all weekend (can confirm).
Tom Kim, who said the Canadian crowd was too quiet on Thursday, isn’t in the @IntlTeam lineup on Friday, but came out early to help get the fans buzzing at @PresidentsCup.

Then there was Si Woo. I already showed you multiple insane things he did, but adding this one on top of them is a must ↓
Guys. Si Woo Kim just took his hat off mid roll on a match closing putt.
If this doesn’t get you into the President’s Cup, you are just a curmudgeon!

Once again, I don’t want to spam you with all the highlights. If you didn’t catch the action, just know there were many.
Can’t wait to see these two spicy South Koreans going at it again at the 2026 Presidents Cup!

RIP Magnolia Lane 😢
Hurricane Helene rampaged through Florida and Georgia late last week, and did some major damage to Augusta National.
You know things are bad when the official Masters account has to put out a tweet like this ↓
“Our Augusta community has suffered catastrophic and historic impact from Hurricane Helene. We currently are assessing the effects at Augusta National Golf Club.
In the meantime, our focus and efforts are foremost with our staff, neighbors and business owners in Augusta. Our… x.com/i/web/status/1…

I don’t know how some random dude was able to get this drone footage, but here’s the toll it took Magnolia Lane ↓

Rae’s Creek is now Rae’s River, as it overflowed onto the 12th green. Here’s a look up to the clubhouse from the 8th tee box ↓

With all that being said, I have no doubt they’ll manage to make it look even better than before come April.

Blockie did the thing again 1️⃣
There’s nothing to say here, I’ll just show you what happened ↓

Blockie did it again. Shocker.
The Spanish Open was nuts 🇪🇸

Honestly, a fairy tail. Love to see it.
Rory x Happy Gilmore? 🏒
Adam Sandler, Travis Kelce, and Rory McIlroy…? The Happy Gilmore 2 cast just got even more star power.
🚨🎬👀 According to @TheTodaysGolfer, Rory McIlroy could be making an appearance in the upcoming Happy Gilmore 2 after his agent was overheard discussing a scheduling conflict that coincides with the filming: “He can’t because it clashes with the Happy Gilmore shooting.”

Quick bites 🥓
My man drunk: Hideki Matsuyama took to instagram to show his caddie naked in his caddie bib, absolutely hammered.
Inmate Scheffler: the world number one told some fans at the Presidents Cup about his prison experience, and it was pretty funny.
Swim for 59: this guy promised his friends that he’d jump in the pond next to the 18th green if he made his putt for 59. The man wasn’t lying.
