Rumored Justine Reed, Patrick Reed's wife, burner account resurfaces

[TCUfrog]

For those who live under a rock or don't dive into the scary waters that are golf twitter, useGolfFACTS has long been rumored to be Patrick Reed's wife's burner account. The account has some absolutely wild takes including but not limited to: The PGA Tour used high quality video editing to manufacture the Reed improving his lie in the bunker to the PGA Tour giving the Reed Family "cheap" tickets to the Red Sox game during the Fedex Cup playoffs to now claiming the PGA of America is giving Tiger preferential treatment.

My personal favorite take though is that the PIP has existed for years and it's only publicly being made known now.

Personally, I agree with the comments. Just my opinion

[Headhammer]

PGA Tour, a 501 (C) charity. 

[Shapotomous]

His right leg looks horrible.

Quite telling how many people came out and said "yes, any pro who wants usually gets that treatment if they simply ask".

Part of me wants to pull a Nelson Muntz and part of me is concerned about potential mental imbalance over there.

She’s a narcissist. Her and her husband love to play the card that the tour “is out to make them look bad, that they are the victim” unfortunately they do a good job of vilifying themselves. From the family drama, cheating during college practice rounds, to the bunker incidents sure seems like the bad publicity knows where to find Patrick and his wife

I am not a Reed fan or hater... however things like this will make more of the golfing public shift towards the latter.

Personally I think too much is being made of this on both the press and social media. I will admit that the Director of Golf knows that course like the back of his hand. But remember experienced players and caddies have notes from the past on the place. Plus experienced caddies will have it mapped out down to a exact science along with their respective players during practice rounds. Personally IMHO I do not feel this has given Tiger any big technical advantage in this case

Maybe if Justine had kept her mouth shut for once and didn't post a BS statement it wouldn't be a big deal.

Some people have way too much free time on their hands.

I don't really care about any of it. I just want to watch good Golf being played.

Social media is the ruination of... well... almost everything.

It's the toilet of the internet...

[fixyurdivot]

Much like "reality TV shows" have replaced Ringling Brothers & Barnum Bailey Circus, this aspect of social media has become the digital form of the National Enquirer .

I tend to pay no attention to any anonymous social media account.  I tend not to ascribe those accounts to any particular individual based on rumors.  In this case, I have no actual idea whether either of the Reeds made the statement, so I'm certainly not going to condemn them for the sentiments expressed anonymously.  I'm also with @BIG STU, I'd be astounded if Tiger got anything out of this that the rest of the field can't get, either from course study, or by talking to the same guy.

Agreed Dave. This was my first reaction to be honest.

Any Director as an ambassador of the club would gladly oblige any Tour player who wished to see the course. 
 

Since it’s Tiger, it’s a story.

Oh it’s Justine all right. Literally 10 seconds of Googling returns multiple articles from reputable organizations showing all the ways it’s them. So the “I’m not sure it’s them” argument doesn’t hold water. Everyone knows it’s Justine. 

[tommc23]

I honestly don’t care I watch golf to watch I don’t care about any of the off course crap

[berkeleybob]

I don’t really follow this, but if Justine plays her cards right, she could get a Netflix deal and turn this into a golf version of “Tiger King”.

[Hook DeLoft]

I don't see getting the Director of Golf to walk the course with Tiger as a big deal.  In my experience, most of those guys rarely get to play anyway.

Yet another reason for me to stay away from social media! 

[RollingGreens]

If you asked for the help I’m sure they director of golf would be able to give it to any of the pros. I doubt their is any secret knowledge that the players don’t know that the director would have

[GrumpyGolf]

Because it is Tiger and the Director of Golf, then people get their hackles up.  Had this been Jason Day and the Head Pro playing a round before the tournament, do you think Justine would have put up this stink?  No, because it would not have nearly the publicity.
