I’m looking forward to being tired as FUCK for tomorrow’s round but make good decisions - let’s do this Coach.

When she said she was Scottish I was shook. Heavy Canadian accent.

Fuck all that. I’m 41 slapdicking it around just trying to break 80. I’ll take my chances. Caffeine is a helluva drug

@djpie and @Randy hope you guys were able to snag a cup from my hitters over at Verve. Next time you get over to Pasatiempo, you gotta swing by the og location over on Pacific

I’m taking the weekend off caffeine and am still collegiate golf eligible - see you in the fall Stanford.

To be fair to Coach Walker, her anti-caffeine stance applies strictly to ingestion prior to competitive golf. She doesn’t have a problem with it otherwise.

My pre-round pain relief routine includes about as much caffeine as a cup of coffee, and I don’t think I’d want to play without it, so for that reason…

Her accent boggled my mind too. My boss at my last job was a wonderful Canadian woman and she sounded exactly the same as coach Walker. My boss was from Halifax, Nova Scotia so perhaps there’s some kind of link there? Who knew the delightful Scottish brogue softened by years in the U.S. = Canadian.

Yeah, there were definitely Scottish tones in her accent but I caught the Canadian stuff as well. Otherwise was too busy enjoying her “mom” jokes.

This is my new favorite way to describe my style of play.

Ya think? People in “new Scotland” sounding a bit similar to people in Scotland.

Edit: my sincerity detector had a momentary lapse.

Yet another reason why NLU is great and worth every penny! What an insightful opportunity this was for ya’ll and we’re all so much better for it, thank you! Really excited to see the careers of these future LPGA stars take off and whenever one of these ladies begin contending and eventually winning LPGA events, a lot of us will have this content to thank for knowing who they are. Truly wonderful work @djpie @Randy @sundaybag

My favorite was Aline Krauter speaking with what was a California, almost valley-girl, accent. When they flashed that she was from Germany on the screen, I was calling bs in my head. And then she speaks perfect German to her friend and my mind was blown.

Having a very specific accent in a second language without a trace of your first language is crazy to me.

Wind is forecast to pick up significantly this afternoon; could be a big disadvantage for Stanford and the other afternoon groups.

I also conveniently forgot to mention I shot a smooth 91 at Del Paso in a tournament earlier this year and got DFL. Rachel only beat me by 28 so got that going for me. @GremlinGolfer had to remind me of it by posting it on Instagram today. I’d tried to scrub it from my memory
