This win is exactly what Rick needed and just the intensity he showed and the spring in his step when he was up showed it meant a lot to him. Respect. Rick your game has obviously not been where you wanted it to be the last uear or so. Its understandable, we cant expect to see such great content week in week out and still expect you to het your practice in between that. We dont expect you to be at tour playing level or anything like that but really the past year your weakness was bombing out on random shots like duffing, hitting shanks or shocking first putts. That shows of a lack of trust in your game (and perhaps just a true lack in praticing) and hoping to see that this round gives you the confidence and energy to keep going at it. Absolutely love your content, even if you have a shitty round!

Grant, you're my favorite golfer by far. I love how you're never really down on yourself smile all the way through a round. I like how you will hit an amazing shot, and talk about how you didnt strike it well. Or how hit shots that don't go where you want, but feel good about your swing and how you struck the ball. You will watch a good put lip out and just smile the biggest smile. It is the positivity and the smile that makes you so fun to watch! It is just enjoyable to see someone doing what they love, working hard at it, and always having a good time and staying positive and smiling all the way through. Grant Horvat is my favorite golfer on the planet. Count me as a person always rooting for you to reach your goals out there and in life.
