So this popped up on my social media yesterday and I immediately knew I had to juggle the posts schedule around so I could throw this up on the blog. The European Tour, in my opinion, has been the GOAT for golf social media amongst the “official outlets” for some time so I’m not the least bit surprised this came from them. Eddie Pepperell is also well regarded for his humor and clever sense of whit. Well, Pepps and the European Tour teamed up and pulled an “all-day” prank on Matt Wallace that made me laugh pretty good. Find ten minutes in your day and have a watch.
I wish golf had more of this stuff – especially in America. We see a little bit, but the characters and the media from the European Tour seem much looser and up for a good time. Maybe it’s a “size of the purse” thing? Who knows…but I’m here for it.
Matt Wallace spent a whole day doing promotional work.
But it was all a prank… ?#TheFakeMediaDay pic.twitter.com/SycUorgLzS
