As perhaps the only person in the Golf Digest office who doesn't watch The Bachelor, I'm probably the last person who should be writing this post. But obviously, I have heard of the hit reality TV show and I know what a bachelor is, so I can present the essential pieces of this: There is a PGA Tour pro who could actually appear on the program.

Well, at least, there's a chance. In the latest Subpar Podcast, Wyndham Clark didn't deny the possibility of this happening when asked about it by hosts Colt Knost and Drew Stoltz. Turns out, Clark, currently the 155th-ranked golfer in the world, is a golf pal of the show's host, Chris Harrison. And the 26-year-old bachelor from Colorado, says the two have discussed him being a contestant. Have a listen:

Players 2020: Breaking down the richest prize money payout in PGA Tour history
The Players Championship's overall purse is up to $15 million, with the winner getting $2.7 million. Here's the prize money payout for each golfer
Tiger Woods’ new (sad) schedule, Tyrrell Hatton’s fun rehab routine, and PGA Tour pros pick the “best-looking” WAG
Welcome to another edition of The Grind where we realize we were wrong about the cardigan. I always thought it was an article of clothing reserved for old men, but as I expand my horizons (thanks in part to a GQ shoot in 2018 NBD) and, yes, tick off another birthday, I have come to understand its appeal.
FacebookPinterestSo freaking classy. My apologies to cardigans everywhere. Arnie knew what's up. Anyway, here's what other important (and not-so-important) topics have us talking this week.
WE'RE BUYING
Tyrrell Hatton: In your face, Paul Azinger! At least, that’s what a lot of Europeans were feeling after the Brit won his first PGA Tour title—just a few months removed from wrist surgery (more on that later)—at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. And what a hard-fought victory it was as Hatton became the first player to win a PGA Tour event with two over-par scores on the weekend since Geoff Ogilvy at the 2006 U.S. Open at Winged Foot.

Players Championship 2020: An anatomy of TPC Sawgrass’ iconic 17th hole
There is nothing else in professional golf like the 17th hole at TPC Sawgrass. It's a crucible crossed with a pressure cooker fused to a cauldron. It makes names and takes them. It rewards the bold and punishes them too. It's the closest the PGA Tour gets to the X Games. You've looked at it a hundred million times from every angle, but have you ever really seen it? Have you ever pried your eyes away from the tee shot that makes grown freeze like they just looked Medusa in the eye and long enough to dissect everything that makes 17 17? Well, now's your chance. Before the roars, the splashes, and the drunken frat boy hordes pull you once more from solemn meditation, we present neither the first nor the last, but perhaps the most unique look at the most wondrously terrifying hole in golf. Grab your big boy pants and join us in the grandstands when you're ready.

You know it was pretty good hockey fight when even the coach loses his sweater
We see our fair share of quality hockey fights—or “donnybrooks,” as they're called in the provincial tongue—around these parts. Tactical one on one sparring matches. Unhinged haymaker fests. Bench-clearing brouhahas. You name it, we've seen it, and probably even written about it. That said, this latest gem from the Federal Hockey League is a new one, thanks in large part to Carolina Thunderbirds coach Andre Niec, who capped off another wild hockey weekend by sparking, and then finishing, one of the craziest brawls we've seen all year. Take it away, coach.

What you don't see from that angle is what happened after Niec—the same guy who once took a swipe at a ref with a stick, it should be mentioned—waded back into the fray. Thankfully, as is usually the case in the smartphone era, a second angle that told the full story soon emerged.
