Finau's Floodgates Open!
Hi All!
Welcome to all our new subscribers joining in for our weekly wrap up of prize money payouts, world ranking movers and opinionated golf content!
Tony Finau has opened the floodgates. It is amazing just how powerful the mental side of the game is when you gain the very specific confidence you need. All of these players are confident they are great players and belong on the PGA Tour.
They may not believe they can win (or win that regularly). But once they’ve crossed the line for the first time ever or for the first time in a long period, there is no stopping them!
Here is an awesome quote from Finau.
Tony Finau is riding such a wave now that it almost feels like he can rock up at the next event without having hit a golf ball in a number of days and still be in contention…easily. It’s a bit like Brooks Koepka was in 2018/2019 where he could hardly put a foot wrong!
Onto this week’s features in The Mulligan.

Check out what’s happening at Augusta National ahead of next year’s Masters…surely you can guess which hole this is right?
This could possibly be one of the worst adverts I have ever seen in my life. It’s so bad it’s actually funny. Well done!

Again Patrick Reed pulls the wool over our eyes. States one of the reasons he’s joined LIV is to spend more time with the family at home etc. Yet now because of a month long break he’s decided to play two Asian Tour events back to back.
Muirfield hosts its first Women’s British Open this week and it’s undoubtedly been an interesting rocky road. It took 275 years to allow any female members…amazing.
Check out the leading drivers used by PGA Tour golfers ranked in the top 10 in strokes gained off the tee. Not that I’m biased, but was a bit surprised at the leader of the pack.
Wait a second! 😳
…THAT is a beautiful plant! I wonder how often she waters it though? Two…three times a week??
