Jon Rahm to Callaway

[USMgolfer1]

Back to Callaway discussion now. I could still could see BK, Spieth, or Rickie being the ones to switch. Especially with Spieth’s recent struggles

Maybe Brooks is thinking his magic streak is over and he needs a steady stream of cash. Would be cool.

 

Then again his majors alone made him enough money to retire a year ago if he wanted to.

That is weird I know one of his teammates from OSU that’s said he’s been playing a Pro V again maybe meant he’s been using it while not in your events I’ll check with him again. Honestly idk why he wouldn’t play the taylormade I’ve found like RF said that it flies better in the wind and goes a touch further

Oh, so you didn't actually see him use the ball...

Rahm was using a Callaway ball in Kapalua.

Sorta disagree on Spieth here.  If you're struggling to find your game at that level mixing in an equipment transition might not be helpful.  I know Rahm has looked good right out of the gate but he's playing well.  It's not like Spieth is playing cr@ppy equipment.

Spieth has struggled for 3+ years.

"In February 2016, his caddie, Chris Roth, was killed in a hit-and-run accident in Newport Beach, California while Roth and Cantlay were out on the town. Roth had been a high school teammate of Cantlay's and had caddied for him in his amateur and professional career."

This likely explains some of that.

Cantlay has also had back issues as well that have limited his practice and events played.

FWIW, I noticed people taking about Rickie playing the tmag ball...that’s false he’s been back playing a ProV1 for a bit now 

Actual proof and not just hearsay of the old friend of a friend story told me BS?

IMO Rickies done anyways, don’t think he’ll win a major let alone the players again. I could care less what ball he plays, or what he wears. I was also taller then him by like grade 5 so maybe I’m not his demo.

Callaway could sign JT to a clothing deal now

Interesting that your height difference is related to how you feel about him, never considered that when I followed a player, have to re-evaluate my favourites.

 That was meant for reference to his style. I’d look like a popsicle with some of his outfits lol.

Boom! This is pretty awesome for Callaway fans. I thought he was a TM guy for life but I guess he either likes their clubs or their money (maybe a bit of both). Didn't he play ping clubs when he was at Arizona State? 

Pretty sure he played maily callaway clubs in college

Looked at titleist today and Spieth is not mentioned on the PGA tour page....

You mean that page?

It’s probably someone who really moves the needle... Top 10 player... Major Winner.... Super Exciting... Webb Simpson

Dont worry he is still on there, you've got to scroll a long way down to find him though.

I doubt it's Brooks, his girlfriend snapped this pic a week ago and it looks like he's replacing the 919s with the 921s this season.

That is a clean set up 🤑

Following up in case I missed it...  I haven’t heard of any other big names moving to Callaway? Is this not happening?

It's now my understanding that negotiations with this other mystery player may have ended in no agreement.

And based on Brooks’ play, Srixon is regretting their decision to sign Koepka.

Now that’s disappointing. He seems to be up there every week and I’ve grown to really like him.  Really impressed with him.   Let’s hope that back holds in there.

Agree with you.  As a tall guy myself , I can’t wear a lot  of the cool

kids fashion , skinny pants on a 6 ft 3 guy with long legs isn’t pretty.  Especially when they end at a 13 shoe. Looks like a chicken wearing skis.
