Historical Golf Tweets

Ahhh Twitter, how do we love thee? You’ve taken fans inside the ropes of golf more than ever before.

Yet, what if we’d had Twitter through the ages?  What may our golfing forefathers had shared?

Behold, what Twitter could hath wrought:

Old Tom Morris: “Kids today, all about ye old bomb and gouge. Young Tommy sailed a brassie 230 yards yesterday. These new wood shafts will be the end of golf!”

Young Tom Morris: “Ugh, Dad asking me how to ‘reply’ on Twitter again. What a wank.”

Bobby Jones:“Augusta Galactical?  Augusta – Bro’s before Ho’s?  BJ’s Place? Damn this naming a golf course thing is hard.”

Ben Hogan: “Stop tweetin’ at me me kid, can’t ya see I’m eating my soup.”

Arnold Palmer: “Whew!  Hot one today. Bartender gave me a half lemonade/half ice tea. Called it ‘the Jimmy’ after himself. Not anymore pal. Not anymore.”

Jack Nicklaus:“Thank God for that lifetime exemption baby! Balls in the air @ ‘86 Masters shortly. Think I have a great shot at breaking top 10! #nochance”

Jan Stephenson: “Love my new cover! Skin to win darlin! http://bit.ly/9RJC7q ”

Seve Ballesteros: “I miss the hole…I miss the hole…I miss the hole…I hole it. #howIroll”

Greg Norman: “Final round of ‘96 Masters, lovin’ it. Handed my jacket measurements to Jack Stephens so we could speed up the post-round ceremony.”

Tiger Woods*: “Free headcover to my next 100 lady followers! Recent profile photos required.”

*Yes I know Twitter’s been around during Tiger’s tenure. But what’s a post without a T-Dub male-whoring reference?
