 2024 US OPEN 🇺🇸 

My thoughts heading into the weekend.

1. Tiger Woods can win again. 

He ended up missing the weekend by a couple strokes but showed so many good signs. 

He just needs to play more golf. Which is the hard thing for him because of the body.

But if he can figure out HOW, which I have no doubt he will, he will win again. 

2. The next Tiger Woods (I’ve never said that before about anyone) is currently in the lead.

Aberg is the fucking man. 

He is so calm and cool. And what a golf swing. 

You can tell this guy was made for big moments, has put in the work, and is mentally ready to take over the golf world. 

He finished 2nd at his first Masters this spring and is leading the way into the weekend.

He will never have the same kind of allure that Tiger had, but I think he is much more likeable at an early age.

3. This course is playing TOUGH. Scottie hasn’t made a birdie in 24 holes.

That’s fuckin nuts.

Watching these guys struggle is way more enjoyable than watching them shoot 20 under. 

4. Bryson is ELECTRIC.

A guy who has been personally attacked for many years by the corrupt golf media is winning over the hearts of golf fans.

Yesterday after his round, he helped CBS commentate golf for a few hours.

Bryson is great for golf.

I’m predicting a Sunday race between Bryson and Aberg. And I couldn’t be more excited.
