If this is real, it’s the greatest Golden Tee hole-in-one ever
Move over Fortnite tools and Overwatch nerds. A nearly 30-year-old man just checked into this video game article and he is grumpy, dismissive, overly dependent on Goldeneye references, and can sometimes be found using “the kids” to denote younger cultural subsets. He is here because he just saw this incredible Golden Tee hole-in-one and, while still very skeptical about its veracity, can't stop watching it anyway. He thinks that if this is real, it should go down as THE SINGLE GREATEST GOLDEN TEE ACE EVER, but please don't @ him, PinballWizard1972. There's not enough room in out-of-touch town for the two us.

Instead, Terminix (Yes, that Terminix) jumped at the chance to finally try to hire the Argentinian legend.

Apparently, the pest control company had been waiting nearly a decade to make Ginobili an offer. You see, in addition to being a two-time NBA All-Star (By the way, that's criminal he only made the West squad twice), Manu was a one-time bat-removal artist. Here's a look back at a 2009 game between the Spurs and the Sacramento Kings in which Ginobili bravely/stupidly morphed into Dwight Schrute to take care of a bat that had gotten into the AT&T Center:

The 9 features of an actually not terrible golf course
Kevin FlemingFour golfers on a green, one putting, near Sandy Spring, Maryland. | Location: near Sandy Spring, Maryland, USA.Great golf courses are easy. Design, conditioning, simple beauty. The ingredients that comprise our best courses, whether by feel or by scientific criteria, are firmly established. The tricky part is everything else; the vast middle tier of quirky, scruffy-around-the-edges layouts that feature just enough redemptive qualities to draw people back. What “best of” lists they crack don’t cover more than a few zip codes. But for one reason or another, they work.
To understand what constitutes an actually not terrible golf course, consider how you would use it in this sentence: “Yeah, it’s not great, but…” The rest is mostly subjective, but there are some common elements that allow us to stomach everything else. For instance:
“Good bones”: Like a once grand colonial fallen into disrepair, here you could squint from the first tee and detect the vague outline of greatnes..
