First of all, forgive us for not thinking through the logistics of getting drunk in outer space. Who would've thought about gravity preventing one from drinking beer, or any normal liquid, for that matter? Not us. But thankfully the Australians have solved this issue—and they developed a libation meant to be enjoyed in space.
4 Pines Brewing, based in New South Wales, Australia, has partnered with Saber Astronautics, which also has an office in Australia, on this joint venture they have dubbed Vostok Space Beer, a low-carbonation dry Irish stout. Apparently there's some complex science involved making the gasses in a beer enjoyable and drinkable. The team has solved the issue—and yes, have tested along the way in zero gravity (imagine that being your job … pretty awesome)—with an Irish-inspired stout that they're calling 4 Pines Vostok Stout, which the companies say is also tasty even if you're enjoying on this planet.
This partnership has been in the making for e..

Orion Pictures/Getty ImagesApproaching four decades since its release, it would be easy to think Caddyshack was a smash hit right from the start. It wasn't. In fact, it was kind of a mess.
As Chris Nashawaty details in his entertaining new book, Caddyshack: The Making of A Hollywood Cinderella Story, the iconic comedy we quote endlessly today was besieged by an uneven script, infighting among cast members, and drugs. Sometimes lots of drugs.
“I've been on a lot of movie sets as a reporter and they're pretty boring,” Nashawaty says on this week's Golf Digest Podcast. “But this is the one movie set that I can think of that the making-of story is even better than the movie. Just because it was shot in Florida in 1979, it's pretty much the gateway into America for cocaine at that time, and everyone was just nuts. It was a big party. It's amazing a movie got made.”

Tiger Woods built his comeback around the Masters, as was the case even in healthier years. He took a step back at Augusta National, not breaking par until the final round and finishing 16 shots behind Patrick Reed, the most he has trailed the Masters winner.

Woods wasn’t alone in his disappointment.

Jordan Spieth geared his early part of the year toward being ready for the Masters, the major he says he most wants to win. He had a two-shot lead after the first round, and rounds of 74-71 meant even that closing 64 wasn’t enough.

Phil Mickelson took himself out of the hunt with a 79 in the second round.

Jack Nicklaus can understand how they feel, and his message for anyone who puts so much emphasis on a green jacket is that the show goes on.

”I had to learn that there were other tournaments in the country after Augusta,” Nicklaus said at the Masters after hitting the ceremonial first tee shot. ”I played Augusta a lot of times and lost. I won in `63, `65 ..

Grace and power are two qualities rarely blended well in a golf swing, but that isn't the case for PGA Tour player Luke List, says his instructor, Jamie Mulligan. Though the show of force in other long hitters is obvious, it's much more subtle with List.

Spencer PlattJust when you thought you'd heard the last of Donald Trump and Tom Brady's budding bromance, the internet sucks you back in. On Tuesday morning, adult actress Stormy Daniels appeared on The View to reveal a police sketch of the man who threatened her to keep quiet about her affair with our Reality TV Show Host in Chief back in 2011. Ordinarily this wouldn't be cause for concern in our little corner of the world, but within minutes, Sherlock Twitter had made a shocking observation:
This guy looks a hell of a lot like TB12.

Major champions today create memories for tomorrow.

Some of them, anyway.

Still to be determined is whether the grit Patrick Reed showed at Augusta National – holding off Rory McIlroy, Jordan Spieth and Rickie Fowler in that order – resonates with a junior who is just getting into golf or motivates one of Reed’s peers.

”It’s such a nostalgic game,” McIlroy said last summer. ”People remember when they watched Jack (Nicklaus) win a U.S. Open or Tom Watson chip in at Pebble Beach. Whatever generation it is, that’s what they’re going to remember and that’s their fondest memory.”

McIlroy was among five major champions who were asked about their fondest memory of a major (excluding those they won).

REDEMPTION

”I’m a big redemption person,” McIlroy said. ”I’m big on someone winning who deserves it.”

The one major that stands out is Adam Scott winning the Masters in 2013, mainly because it came nine months after one of the most stunning collapses on the back..

Welcome to another edition of The Grind, where we were reminded once again that all good things come to an end. Of course, I’m talking about golf’s #SB2K crew, which instead of partying it up at Baker’s Bay this year, attended the wedding of one of its own, Smylie Kaufman. Cue Madonna singing “This used to be my playground,” and hold back the tears for the end of an era.

OK, so judging by the photos (some of which have since been deleted …) it looks like the guys simply swapped matching tank-tops for matching tuxes and moved their annual spring fling to Alabama—getting their bar tab picked up by Smylie’s in-laws in the process. Brilliant. But while this foursome attacked the dance floor like a short par 5, there was still plenty happening on golf courses around the world. Here's what else has us talking.

Big news in the world of fine cuisine this week, where Super Troopers 2 and Hooters have joined forces for a special new “Snozzberry Sauce” just in time for 4/20. Buckle up, Bourdain. Eat your heart out, Batali. This is about to get nuts.
In case that didn't clear things up, here's what Hooters had to say about their latest culinary triumph:
Hooters Snozzberry Sauce pairs perfectly with its latest wing innovation, Smoked Wings, which are marinated overnight with a sweet and spicy dry rub before being hickory smoked in-house. Smoked Wings are also half the calories of traditional-style wings, so fans can eat twice as many if the munchies kick in.
Subtle stuff, we know. Also, if for some reason you get too paranoid to leave the house on Thursday, don't stress. Hooters delivery (a thing, apparently) has you covered with on-the-go wings and maybe even an acute anxiety attack-inducing Super Troopers 2 cast cameo:
For those unable to visit Hooters on April 20, guests that orde..

According to research, many golfers are actually hitting it shorter.
