Our 2019 list of America’s 100 Best Clubfitters is the result of detailed consultation of industry sources and a survey our nearly 1,500-member, nationwide, America's 100 Greatest Course-ratings panel on the best places in their respective locations. We also considered nomination submissions, a detailed application form and reader recommendations of more than 800 facilities (shops, fitting studios, golf courses, practice ranges, teaching academies). We break our list into state/regional facilities (86) and national chains (14). Individual stores that are part of a national chain are listed under the state where they are located. All venues on the list are accessible to the public.

Bartlett's imitation is almost too good; that Bubba stare-down is going to haunt our dreams tonight.
If we're going to be picky, a small penalty for rocking the wrong glove. However, he nails the rest of Watson and his idiosyncrasies, so we can let it slide. We're not sure how Bartlett follows this up–on..

Patrick SmithTiger Woods vaulted up the Official World Golf Rankings and won a PGA Tour title in 2018, but there’s one more important step he has to take before he’s truly “BACK.” And that, obviously, is to have his own sports drink again.
OK, so winning a major would probably come first on the official list of “BACK”ness, but the beverage thing is also big.

But now it appears he's working with his new beverage sponsor, Monster, on rectifying that. Golfweek’s Dan Kilbridge got the important drink deets from Tiger’s agent, Mark Steinberg, at the Hero World Challenge.
