If you were busy living your life and weren’t on Twitter over the weekend, we got you covered.
Here’s our attempt to provide a recap of the best tweets you may have missed during the Sentry Tournament of Champions.

We can’t forget about the new knee drop rule too.

Marketing opportunity?
Callaway released their new Epic Flash last week and we’re willing to bet this drive Xander Schauffele won’t be featured on any of their commercials.
Still had 158mph ball speed! Guess that’s what happens when you design a driver with artificial intelligence.
Even a man who’s made more birdies in one round than you probably will all year occasionally “tops” a driver.
The only difference is that his went 242 yards and yours probably goes 42.

X marks the spot
Xander had 273 left to the par-5 18th hole for his second shot and hit one of the better approaches under pressure you’ll probably see all year. He went on to win the Tournament of Champions by one shot over Gary Woodland.
What a shot, @XSchauffele. 😲👏#LiveUnderPar pic.twitter.com/kvnpXWKChr
