13 Revealing photos from the Quicken Loans National

Published

on

GolfWRX was live this week from the Quicken Loans National at Robert Trent Jones Golf Club in Gainesville, Va., hosted by Tiger Woods. In case you missed any of the photos, you can find all of the galleries here:

Equipment junkies got their fix this week, with Titleist dropping new AP1 and AP2 irons, new T-MB irons and new CB irons, as well as the H1 and H2 816 hybrids, too. Callaway also came in hot with its new Great Big Bertha and Big Bertha Alpha 816 drivers and fairway woods.

Let’s see what else happened at the Quicken Loans with this week’s Revealing Photos.

Tiger’s body guard tried so hard to keep a straight face

Inner monologue: “Alright. No big deal, it’s just Tiger Woods. Stay cool.”

b8ae32936900c449b5079a59e769a9f1

“Yea, I got this. Calm, cool and collected.”

“Man, this is so sweet. Just me and Tiger strolling along.”

“Whoops! Forgot where I was for a second. Hold it back.”

Toe Hang’s WITB

Not sure who Toe Hang is, but he seems to be a fan of putters.

Gone fishin’

Head down, casually strolling through the course with a fishing rod. Love this move. Forget golf, where the lakes at?

Butt wait…

Is that a butt weight on Lamkin’s new putter grips? I believe it is.

Odyssey’s creative covers

No 3-Jacks. Brilliant.

And “Odyssey” as the hockey jersey name patch on the blade version of the cover?

Next level stuff.

The solution to Rory’s habits

If he put a floaty on all of his golf clubs, he could just let the clubs fly with no worries.

Problem solved.

Does K.J.’s caddie get paid double?

Carry the bag, and spot for K.J. … who refuses to stop working out.

All day, everyday.

Mitch Cumstein’s nemesis

There’s no way he could see Blayne Barber’s murdered out GoLo 3 putter while night putting with the Dean’s daughter.

Unnecessary abbreviation

1st aid? I think “First Aid” is short enough.

Quicken Loans appreciates the caddies…

… for now. We’ll see if they’re singing a different tune when a thunder storm rolls through the area. Back under the tin roof!

Tiger who?

d71e59a7736bd31e305e1bf1b3b1c634

High on the list of people you wouldn’t expect Tiger to invite to his tournament: Vijay Singh.

Remember when Vijay’s caddie wrote “Tiger who?” on his hat at the 2000 Presidents Cup? Not a good idea. Tiger tightened up his “gimmie range” for Singh that round, and beat him on three occasions during the cup — most notably a 2&1 singles match.

Kick-game heat.

You can buy them here. When people ask where you found them, just tell them you have a sneaker hookup #urwelcome

“816” continues to be the most popular number in golf 

f5f2af3b55a91f4e4b2665a259d60aad

Callaway, Titleist and now Fourteen Golf each have golf clubs with the 816 in their name. Weird.

He played on the Hawaii Pacific University Men's Golf team and earned a Masters degree in Communications. He also played college golf at Rutgers University, where he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism.

    What, is “816” the “420” of golf?

    KJ Choi working out and Jimenez knee roll stretch get me every time….
    And Vijay’s beautifully tempoed reverse C makes him forever loveable to me…

    All Time best, so far! Keep up the great work, though I did give you a lot of great content to choose from this week. Now I just have to step up my game for you from now on! Thanks, AT

Neal Shipley, AKA, the “Big Fridge’s,” custom stamping

Published

on

Neal Shipley was the first to admit that he enjoyed his food while in college. But since his days at Ohio State, he’s slimmed down and earned a PGA Tour Card.

That hasn’t stopped him from having fun with his wedge stampings, though it’s led to some misunderstandings.

On the 54 (degree), we have ‘Big Fudge,'” Shipley told GolfWRX. “It was supposed to be ‘Big Fridge,’ so this happened a little while ago. ‘Big Fridge’ was a nickname between my college teammates and I, with ‘fridge’ meaning stomach, a big stomach.

“We told the Ping guys to put … ‘Big Fridge’ on it, and I think maybe some bad cell service or something, and they thought I said ‘fudge,’ so they put fudge on it.”

On Shipley’s 50-degree he also continues the food theme, this time with his go-to order at the “Golden Arches,” and his stamping “DONS 7.”

“The number 7 meal, the two cheeseburger meal, that was my McDonald’s order, back when I would have McDonald’s frequently,” Shipley shared.

Check out Shipley’s full what’s in the bag and the rest of his wedge stampings here on “Inside the Ropes” from Colonial.
