Bizarre story coming out of Scotland the last couple of days.  Canadian golfer Graham Delaet bitching about an airline losing his luggage that just so happened to be his golf clubs.  Kinda important when the guy is heading off to Scotland to playing the The Open Championship but not earth shattering news.  Airlines lose shit all the time or do something wrong and people go on Twitter to bitch about it.  That’s 2015.  When athletes do it it obvisouly gets more play but this is nothing new.

Anyway, so Graham Delaet was kinda screwed.  He didn’t have any clubs to play his practice round at St. Andrews with.  Not to fear, Graham. Titleist stepped up and gave him clubs so he could practice.  Still no sign of his actual clubs because the airline didn’t even know where they were.

A few 54 hours later, his clubs arrived.  Have mercy!  Anyone who has ever played with a rental set of clubs knows how much it sucks.  It does the job but it’s simply not comfortable.  And the only times I’ve played with rental clubs is when I’m out of town and I wanna play a quick round with my out-of-town friends and get drunk.  That’s probably a little different than playing in The Open Championship at St. Andrews with rental clubs.  I’m guessing.

One problem.  They showed up looking like they’d been dragged through the desert

So what happened?  Did the clubs fall out the bottom of the airplane, tumble to Earth and that’s why they look all fucked up?  Nope.  Turns out it was just a protein powder explosion. Whoops.
