During the second round of the 2020 Tour Championship, Justin Thomas gave a sarcastic thumbs up to a putt he hit that was in the jar if he hadn’t hit it short.
Seems like the perfect picture to use when giving a sarcastic sign of appreciation to a lackluster performance.

Dustin Johnson and his brother/caddie Austin Johnson had a big, synchronized belly laugh about something — probably the haters — during the 2020 Travelers Championship.
A few years ago, the PGA Tour tried to promote the FedEx Cup playoffs with a hilarious rap video featuring guys like Jim Furyk, Luke Donald and Peter Jacobsen. It’s cringy bad, but it’s a site to behold.
Johnny Miller apparently used to love watching golf tournaments from the NBC Sports tower on the 18th hole while directly eating a can of spray cheese. In this picture, he’s clearly noticing a guy experiencing some neves.

Step 4:
Bryson DeChambeau is a content machine. This is a 1-2 combo, first using the picture of Bryson looking down the fairway to spot something, then putting in a picture of something that’s an outrage, then coming back with Bryson looking shocked his putt didn’t go in.
