This Week’s #GolfChat Questions
Q1: The Travelers gave us a great finish for the 2nd year in a row (8 hole playoff last year). Do some non-major tourneys just feel a little more important than others. If you think so, what sets these apart? Course, host/sponsor, timing in the schedule? #GolfChat
Q2: LIV is back this week in my backyard with newly signed Matt Wolf and 1st time players Patrick Reed, Bryson DeChambeau, and Brooks Koepka? How do you see LIV now that we’ve had time to see it, the players leaving the PGA and the PGA’s plans to counter? #GolfChat

Q4: 1 of my foursome partners this past Sunday fought a slice all day. Come to 15 which has a OB fence to the right and Bruce declared that he wasn’t going right, he did? What are your thoughts when facing trouble and you’re not sure you have a swing for it? #GolfChat

Welcome to #GolfChat! Who’s joining us, where are you, did you get out and play this past week? Who’s your pick for this week’s US Open and what’s the winning score? #GolfChat
This Week’s #GolfChat Questions
Q1: The US Open didn’t disappoint with a new major champ, a legendary course holding up to the best players, and conditions that tested the best players w/out being stupid. What was your biggest takeaway or did you just try to enjoy the golf? #GolfChat
Q2: Summer is officially here and for some the weather is going to make play even better, and for others, it means having to battle the heat with early rounds or lots of hydration. Tell how you’re doing with your 2022 golf goals and getting in more or less rounds that you would like? #GolfChat
Q3: Let’s talk golf on TV as 2 topics bring in front and center. Nick Faldo steps down in August and USGA CEO Mike Whan reacted to criticism from golf Twitter of the US Open coverage in several areas. Can TV coverage ever be “fixed” by TV, or will it come down a pay per view streaming to reduce the amount of commercials and set pieces we get now? #GolfChat
Q4: Played twice we strangers this week, 1 group is was quickly obvious Sunday’s guys would be fun with smack talk going on the 1st tee. 2nd group I was guest and it was a lot different as only two of the four knew each other? What signs do you look for when playing with strangers if the round is going to fun or not? #GolfChat
Q5: Knowing what to touch on for #GolfChat is getting tough as we’re seeing historic actions taking place in pro golf, but we’re not pro’s and we care a lot about our game and other #GolfChatters. What ideas, suggestions, or ways forward do you think is best for this group? #GolfChat

This Week’s #GolfChat Questions
Q1: LIV was able to get it’s 1st tournament in this past week. Do you think the world of professional golf has been forever altered and if so, is it for the betterment of the game overall, or is it being dragged down into a cesspool? #GolfChat
Q2: Rory McIlroy was able to hold off JT and Tony at the other at the RBC Canadian. Was this the answer the PGA needed in light of the LIV tournament, or was is just a good finish to the PGA’s oldest event? #GolfChat
Q3: The US Open is this week so maybe now the focus can get back to golf and not the sideshow. The Country Club will play about 7,260 yards with tight fairways, lots of rough, trees, wind, and small greens. Perfect for the toughest test in golf. What do you thing the best outcome can be given the current state of golf? #GolfChat

This Week’s #GolfChat Questions
Q1: My home town of Portland, OR just set the all time record for April rainfall at 5.37 inches and behind on my rounds and May’s not starting much better. What do you do when spring weather keeps you from playing as much as you would like? I’m hinting at a 1 person road trip. #GolfChat
Q2: A national golf publication came out with an article about how to play golf with a spouse or significant other so it’s enjoyable for everyone. I see that many of you play with your kids, but how about spouses or SO’s? #GolfChat

This Week’s #GolfChat Questions
Q1: When Tiger’s name did not appear on The Masters past champions not competing list, a hope was sparked that he might be recovered enough to play. Today that spark is now a wildfire as Radar Spots tracked Tiger’s plane to Augusta for perhaps a practice session on site to test his readiness for next week. The golf needle moves around Tiger and The Masters so it has just pegged at full on excitement and wondering how much more you’ll be following the development over the next 9 days? #GolfChat
Q2: Scottie Scheffler is your new #1 ranked men’s golfer in the world with his win in the WGC. Many on Twitter questioned the ranking, but the formula is points based and accepted by all major governing bodies. Why do you think anybody would question Scheffler’s rise to #1? #GolfChat
Q3: We get a look at Augusta this week as the Augusta National Women’s Amateur begins tomorrow and will play the final round on Friday at Augusta. Because we only get to see the course twice a year, do you look forward to seeing more of Augusta with less patrons during the AWNA or was the Masters in November of 2020 enough for you? #GolfChat
