]]> There were plenty of memorable moments from the 2022-2023 PGA Tour season, but it’s tough to top the finish at the Canadian Open—and what happened in the immediate aftermath.

In case you don’t remember, Nick Taylor ended the home country’s drought in the event by beating Tommy Fleetwood in a playoff with a 72-foot eagle putt, the longest make of his career. That sent just about everyone at Oakdale Golf & Country Club into a frenzy, including fellow Canadian tour pro-Adam Hadwin. But when Hadwin ran out on the green with a bottle of champagne to celebrate, he was absolutely flattened by a security guard.

Fortunately, no (serious) injuries were sustained, but it was just an unreal scene. And one that all golf fans—including Adam’s wife, Golf Twitter legend Jessica Hadwin—had plenty of fun with over the following days.

Anyway, Jessica was still having a bit of fun at Adam’s expense on Halloween as the family came up with the perfect group costume. Check it out:

Nailed it. I mean, that’s flawless execution with Jessica, wearing the same outfit from that day, playing the role of Adam, and Adam playing the role of the security guard/outside linebacker. And then you have daughter Maddox playing Nick Taylor.

Well played, Hadwins. You can call off the best costume contest because that’s a clear winner right there.

]]> Golf is not for the faint of heart or the weak of stomach. Disaster lurks around every corner. Humiliation coils like a snake in the grass. You need steady legs and a stiff upper lip if you’re going to survive this house of horrors we call a sport. So, in honour of the spookiest month of the year (and the scariest game on Earth), join us as we count down golf’s nastiest knee-knockers. If you can look these supernatural shots in the eye, you might just get out alive.

Bunker shot out of a buried lie in clear view of the clubhouse patio at lunch hour.

Tee shot in front of the foursome that your partner just convinced to let you play through.

Punch-out from the wrong fairway while the group on that hole waits for you to clear.

Shot six inches from the cart path with a new set of irons.

First shot of a playoff after relaxing at the 19th hole waiting for the other scores to come in.

Chip from a downhill lie with the parking lot 15 yards behind the green.

The provisional after you just shanked one dead right into what looks like poison ivy.

Approach shot on 18 when you’re looking at a career round.

Opening drive at a bucket-list course on a dream trip that costs more than your kid’s university fees.

Recovery shot from the edge of a swampy water hazard where anything could be lurking beneath the surface.

A three-foot tester to win your four-ball match while playing with your father-in-law.

Tee shot over a forced carry with no more balls in your bag.

Halloween 2017 is officially a wrap, and it’s time to turn the page to November and Thanksgiving. Soon it will be Christmas, and even sooner it will be Masters Thursday… we don’t mean to rush, but, get excited people.

But first, we rounded up all the best golf-related costumes from October 31st, and there were some good ones. We’ll kick it off with the best-of-the-best and move our way down from there. Not to declare a “winner” of Halloween, since literally everyone on the internet “won” Halloween in some capacity, but this kid just might have:

The attention to detail here is impeccable. From the Polo and Citi logos to the tie, to the shoes, it’s very well done. If we had to nitpick though, where’s the Scotty Cameron putter? Almost perfect. Now, on to the rest…

Pretty solid all around, except we’re not sure what Rickie is. If you go of Allison Stokke’s caption, a smiling ghost? No clue.

Rickie Fowlers

Speaking of Rickie, he was a pretty popular choice for trick-or-treaters this year:

Olympic tattoo included. Outstanding.

Aspiring LPGA Tour pro Hailey Ostrom went with the tattoo and the stache. Spot on.

15 out of 10 on the adorable scale.

Jordan Spieths

HUGE points for the green jacket.

Little Greller going all Nike…. not a good look for Under Armour.

Feel like the guy with the beard should have been Greller here.

BEEEEF

This looks like the same kid that was dressed as Beef last year, which he should just continue to do every year at this point.

Not terrible, but the beard game is pretty weak.

JT

These two had an uphill battle against the kid in the cardigan, but they still did an OK job.

The Shark

No idea what Norman is supposed to be, but then again, we didn’t know last year either.

???

Masters caddies in wrinkly as hell… ponchos? Come on guys, be better.

Paulina… always festive around the holidays.

Alright, sorry Justin Thomas kid, this guy wins.
