PGA In Tulsa: Tiger Shows His Hand

Tiger Woods visited Southern Hills last week and delivered excitement. And yet, did Team Reed really take to Twitter to grovel about the scouting trip?

Hypnotic: The Full Drone Tour Up Magnolia Lane And Through The Augusta National Clubhouse

Inspired by several of the recent incredible drone tours through buildings, I still can’t fathom how they did this given how intimate the clubhouse is.

Snippets of this were used on the broadcast this year, but seeing the full shot set to past comments really is special stuff. Not teeing off with a giant red bat and putting with a pool cue, but still pretty cool!

Quadrilateral: A Masters Wish List

The tournament is always looking to get better and here are my suggestions.

Free of charge because it’s Thursday and the weekly News & Notes are off, recuperating from a busy Masters week.
