In what’s develop into a yearly custom, TaylorMade has as soon as once more rounded up their prime Tour staffers so as to add a little bit vacation comedy to our Christmas week.
And this yr, as a substitute of 1 Christmas card, TaylorMade has gone with a number of Christmas playing cards, every molded after among the most beloved Christmas films.
Rory McIlroy, Charley Hull and Collin Morikawa in ‘Gap In One’
First off, we have now Rory McIlroy, Collin Morikawa and Charley Hull recreating the enduring film poster for the basic “Residence Alone,” starring Macaulay Culkin as Kevin McCallister. It’s a little bit tough to get behind Rory as younger Kevin given the sunshine shadow and salt-and-pepper hair he’s been sporting as nicely, however Rory has been golf’s “it” boy for some now, so it’s a reasonably pure match in any other case.
Charley Hull’s casting as Joe Pesci’s Harry would possibly truly be spot on given the colourful function she’s assumed this yr on the LPGA. Collin Morikawa as his co-henchman, Marv, doesn’t actually match, nevertheless. Morikawa doesn’t look like somebody who may steal from anybody, not to mention a little bit boy left at dwelling from his household’s trip … except it was Rory.
Tiger Woods in ‘TaylorMade Golf’s Tiger’s Trip’
Tiger Woods enjoying Chevy Chase’s roll of Clark W. “Sparky” Griswold Jr. in “Nationwide Lampoon’s Christmas Trip” was a very good match for the costume. Word the refined nod to Tiger’s new Solar Day Purple model, which is a part of TaylorMade’s portfolio, together with his new emblem on the Santa cap. Surprise what number of of these they may promote if it was accessible?
Tommy Fleetwood in ‘Drive Laborious’
We will’t let you know for positive that “Die Laborious” is a Christmas film, however TaylorMade is right here to state “Drive Laborious” clearly is.
If there’s anybody who may muster Bruce Willis’ charisma, it’s Tommy Fleetwood. Robust to image anybody else on TaylorMade’s workers in a grimy tank prime and pretending a 5-iron was a gun. Fleetwood provides off extra worldwide undercover agent than New York Metropolis police detective, but it surely’s shut sufficient to make it work.
Scottie Scheffler in ‘The Scottie Clause’
Finish the yr because the unquestioned No. 1 participant on the planet, you get to unseat Tiger Woods as Jolly ol’ St. Nick. However we advocate Scottie lay off the milk and cookies if he’s to defend his title at Augusta Nationwide subsequent yr.
Nelly Korda in ‘Nelly’
Similar to Will Ferrell’s Buddy Hobbs towered amongst Santa’s Elves in “Elf,” Nelly Korda towered amongst the remainder of the LPGA as she put collectively one of many biggest seasons by an American participant this millennium, successful seven instances.
It additionally suits as Nelly’s 5-foot-10 body additionally sees her trying over the remainder of her competitors.
Brooke Henderson in ‘A Canadian Story’
Because the winningest Canadian golfer of all time, Brooke Henderson is worthy of her personal stand-alone movie. It might be simple to guess that her model of a Purple Ryder Carbine Motion BB gun can be including to her two main titles from 2016 and 2022.
