PGA Tour Vet Goes Unrecognized In 'Undercover' Club Fitting At Golf Store
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The 3M Open was heating up at TPC Twin Cities entering Day 3. Thorbjørn Olesen led the pack with a score of 14-under-par, while Jake Knapp started the day just one stroke behind him. However, amid all the score discussions, arguably the week's most viral moment came outside the ropes, away from the course even, at Golf Galaxy store in Blaine, Minnesota. PGA Tour pro Zac Blair shares hilarious incident Zac Blair, who got into the 3M Open field as a late alternate on Wednesday, posted a hilarious video to Instagram that's quickly become a fan favorite. With the course closed due to storms on Wednesday, Blair headed to Golf Galaxy for a casual club fitting, but as an "undercover". He got dressed in sweats, a blue T-shirt and let the staff treat him like any weekend golfer. OAKMONT, PENNSYLVANIA - JUNE 12: Zac Blair of the United States hits a tee shot on the 10th hole during the first round of the 125th U.S. OPEN at Oakmont Country Club on June 12,... OAKMONT, PENNSYLVANIA - JUNE 12: Zac Blair of the United States hits a tee shot on the 10th hole during the first round of the 125th U.S. OPEN at Oakmont Country Club on June 12, 2025 in Oakmont, Pennsylvania. (Photo by) More Getty Images Nic, the fitter, helped Blair but had no idea he was working with a Tour pro who's earned nearly $8 million in career prize money. When Blair requested a Titleist driver, Nic told him to "get his shoulders loose" and hit a few shots so they could measure his clubhead speed. The 34-year-old, enjoying the moment, agreed, swung a few pro shots and acted along. At one point, Blair's friend, who was recording the whole incident, asked Nic to guess the Tour pro's handicap. "I'll say probably one ... a regular one," Nic replied as shown in the video posted on Blair's Instagram handle. "I'm a 2.5 so," he added. "So you think he's better than you?" the friend questioned further. "Umm no," Nic replied with confidence. The moment was pure comedy. Blair is known as one of the shortest hitters on Tour. After a few swings, Nic fitted him with a driver that Blair later used to shoot a bogey-free 64 in Round 1 and 72 on Day 2 at the 3M Open. That was a good enough score to make the cut and head into the weekend at 6-under. Blair's Instagram caption made it clear the video wasn't meant to mock anyone. In fact, he praised Nic's knowledge and fitting skills. "Pt. 2 had to head back to golf galaxy and scoop that driver @nicholasurban1988 got me fitted in! Thanks again for putting up with us and pumped to have him out watching at the 3m this week!" he captioned his next post by sharing a video of meeting the fitter again and thanking him. This isn't Blair's first brush with a club-fitting incident The Salt Lake City, Utah, native faced a similar situation in Canada two years ago when his driver broke down mid-round. At that time, all the equipment trucks had left the tournament, and he had to scramble to find a replacement, again, without being recognized. The 34-year-old turned pro in 2014 and played college golf at BYU. Though he's still chasing his first PGA Tour win, he's had notable finishes, including a T4 at Zurich Classic last year, T2 at the 2023 Travelers Championship. He also made headlines during U.S. Open week last month with a 120-yard putt at Oakmont that went viral. As of this week, Blair entered the weekend round at TPC Twin 8 shots behind the leader.

Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce Are Instagram Official
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are finally Instagram official, people! On Friday, the Kansas City Chiefs' tight end posted photos of him and Taylor together for the very first time on his social media. On July 25, on Instagram, he wrote, "Had some adventures this offseason, kept it 💯." In the photos, Taylor and Travis are full-on matching for an adorable date night. If you look super close, you can notice that Travis has Taylor as his cellphone lock screen. Eek! In the other photos, Tayvis are cozied up in winter gear as they hang out on an ice rink. The "Shake It Off" singer and Travis have apparently been spending lots of time together this year, and based on the pictures, Travis' family — his parents Donna and Ed, and his brother Jason have been part of the adventure as well. In other photos, they're pictured with their friends. And I'm living for these new pictures. We finally got an upgrade from all those random paparazzi and football game photos. The pair first sparked dating rumors in September 2023 after Taylor was spotted at several Chiefs' games. They seemingly confirmed their relationship the next month when they stepped out holding hands at a Saturday Night Live afterparty. And since they've always been randomly spotted together somewhere, but the official photos were scarce. And now, we have Instagram photos! The photos are going viral, and the people are losing their minds. With this news, it's time for me to play the 27-hour, 404 song "Taylor Swift Complete Collection" Spotify playlist on shuffle while I clean my house.
