Below are a bunch of the best golf tweets of 2016. If I left out your tweet, BE offended. This list is intended to be entirely complete, I most definitely didn’t put it together in less than 30 minutes, and any tweet I left out is 100% intentional, and a personal jab at you. Enjoy!
(Kyle Porter’s Ryder Cup week probably deserves it’s own post, but I just threw them all in here intermittently.)
If his putter did not sit, you MUST acquit!!!

Well we missed our par putts, then SK made a 4 footer for a 5 on a par 4… Since we made 5, and the par was indeed a 4, that was a bogey https://t.co/bxwsDCBt94

On Tuesday, a police siren sounded as Colt Knost addressed his ball, playing with Mickelson. Big Gravy said, "They're coming for you, Phil."

Ways golf could "grow the game":
1. More it more affordable
2. Make it take less time
3. More inclusive
4. Less silly rules

Kevin Chappell may not have a backswing by the time he's 65. Just power through from address a la Golden Tee.

I admire the USGA's unwavering determination to show fidelity to the rules. Of course, I admired Titanic's doomed captain for the same.

You could fit Ian Poulter's ego between Rory's drive and Phil's drive on No. 10. Barely. But you could do it.
