J.J. Henry On Looper Mark Brooks: “He’s got the jockey whip and is laying it on these couple of days. I’ve got my leather underwear on.”

That image is probably a little more than you wanted to know, but Brian Wacker has the interesting story of former PGA Champion Mark Brooks toting J.J. Henry's bag at The Players in hopes of improving Henry's game.

Brooks also played in 21 PLAYERS Championships with three career top 10s, including a career-best tie for seventh in 1997.

But it was Brooks’ approach as much anything that attracted Henry to him.

“He doesn’t sugarcoat in anything,” Henry said. “He’s got the jockey whip and is laying it on these couple of days. I’ve got my leather underwear on.”

Said Brooks: “I’m not going to say everything is perfect if it’s not because that’s not going to help him. That’s not going to help anyone. So many of these guys’ psyches are so fragile that if they don’t keep the confidence up, it’ll be a disaster. And a lot of the confidence is artificial anyway.”
