May The 4th Be With You

In honour of Star Wars day (May the fourth be with you) I found a couple of videos that mix Star Wars and golf.

One shows how Darth Vader uses the dark side of the force to help him on the course.

This one is a home-made video where there is a Star Wars Lego golf tournament, the 2003 Endor Open.

May the Fourth be with you, always.

 

Early Entries for Shots of the Year

In the last couple of days, these two shots seem to be all everyone is talking about.  First the Jacksonville Jaguars’ mascot won a closest to the pin contest at media day for the Players Championship. There were a couple of former PGA Tour members in the competition too.


And then there is Sei Young Kim who not only chips in on the 72nd hole to force a playoff, but then holes her approach from over 150 yards away on the first playoff hole for a tournament-winning eagle.

These may be a couple of early entries for the shots of the year.

PGAme Of Thrones Trailer

I was checking twitter today and saw the @LPGA posted a link to a trailer made by SkratchTV where they have made a professional golf version of a Game Of Thrones trailer.

Here is their trailer.

And here is the Game Of Thrones trailer.  Season 5 premiers tonight after some golf tournament.

Here is the LPGA’s tweet
