フィル・ミケルソン、パトリック・カントレーのスロープレーを冗談交じりに「擁護」
The PGA Tour 2025 season concluded Sunday with Tommy Fleetwood snapping his winless drought. Patrick Kentlay, meanwhile, fell just short of winning his second FedEx Cup title, having won it previously in 2021. Kentlay finished tied for second with Russell Henley at 15 under. But the former UCLA Bruin came under fire on social media during the final round for his pace of play. Fans were less than thrilled with how long many of his shots took. During the final round, Kentlay seemed to take forever to tee off. Media member Jason Paige tweeted, “If you watch, you can actually see the grass growing under Patrick Kentlay’s feet. Brutal.” Phil Mickelson, a PGA Tour legend who now plays for LIV Golf, caught the comment and decided to take another angle. He shuffled his right foot 26 times. 26 times before he hit it. 26 by 36 other shots is 936 foot shuffles, Mickelson retweeted on X. That’s more calf raises than I’ll ever do. You also must be in peak physical condition to do this daily. So, let’s stop all the hate and appreciate that golfers are athletes. Golfers are undeniably athletes where the rank among some of the best professional athletes may not be as favorable, but players work at their craft. non-stop just like other athletes. Ironically, in the video where Kentlay takes forever to tee off, his found the rough and bogeied the hole, dropping him out of first place. Kentlay hopes he did enough to warrant considering from Keegan Bradley to be named one of his six captains picks for the RDER Cup.
