Scott Stallings’ Masters invite mishap, a flashback to 2000 Tiger Woods highlight this week’s social media roundup
On Monday, Scott Stallings posted a tweet that quickly made its way through the golf world.
A different Scott Stallings received the PGA Tour pro’s Masters invite and reached out through DMs to get the letter back in the mail. An unreal coincidence, and an unreal story.
The pro’s tweet leads our social media roundup this week, as does a first look at the upcoming TaylorMade Stealth 2. And since we’re back at Kapalua, it’s only right to look back at the incredible 2000 dual between Tiger Woods and Ernie Els.
Spoiler alert: Tiger won.
Check out some of the best social media posts from the past week below.

Remember when Tiger and Ernie finished 3-3 at Kapalua to go to a playoff — was that any good? Also, Tiger in the XXXL shirt is incredible. If TJ Ford's shorts were a golf shirt …pic.twitter.com/mKrCVuKn4K
