Days after the PGA Tour’s Fall FedEx season finale was announced, Commissioner Jay Monahan made a cool move that’s got everyone talking. In a surprise pairing, Michael S. Kim was teamed up with 2009 Open Championship winner Stewart Cink and Stanford alum Joseph Bramlett for the final round of the RSM Classic. Kim took to X to express his excitement, praising the unique experiences that come with playing on the PGA Tour. “One of the truly unique things about playing on the pgatour and golf in general. I go from playing with 22 yr olds to a 51 yr old major champion,” he wrote.

And now comes the twist. In the latest tweet by NBA Central, BJ Armstrong shared his thoughts on the current state of the NBA, stating that players lack creativity and have become too formulaic in their approach to the game. According to Armstrong, modern players are overly focused on shooting three-pointers, drawing fouls, and taking layups, resulting in a lack of imagination and creativity on the court. “When I go watch the game, there’s no more creativity, there’s no more imagination,” Armstrong said, likening today’s players to “robots running up and down the court,” who simply run to the three-point line, attempt a layup, or try to get fouled, devoid of any real flair or originality.

Michael Kim replied to the post by saying some similar sentiments about the PGA Tour, jokingly echoing the original statement, “When I go watch the PGATOUR there’s no creativity. No imagination. According to Kim, the game has become too formulaic, with players relying on high-tech drivers to hit the ball 400 yards, and then seeking free drops from obstacles like scoreboards or grandstands if they miss the fairway.

Fans are reacting to the post by saying all kinds of things and agreeing with the golfer’s take.

Netizens bash Jay Monahan by agreeing with Micheal Kim

You know how golf fans can be always a little skeptical, questioning the latest and greatest in the sport? They’re a tough crowd to win over, and it’s pretty common for them to approach new developments with a healthy dose of “yeah, right.” But here’s the thing – it looks like golf fans are actually agreeing with the golfer this time. “I mean, it’s true. You don’t see as much creativity or artistry in the game as you did even 10 years ago🤷‍♂️”, said one fan while the other said, “You are actually correct” and the reason for lack of creativity has to be, as Kim suggested, modern technology.

Technology has been changing the game of golf more than we’d like to admit, with laser rangefinders, GPS watches, and an array of training aids becoming staples in the modern-day golfer’s bag. Gone are the days when golf gloves, tees, and umbrellas were the main players in the accessories market. With the rise of technology, golfers can now practice at home with the best training aids, such as putting mats, practice nets, and alignment sticks, to improve their game. However, with so many options available, it’s essential to invest wisely, asking yourself what each accessory will bring to your game and how often you’ll use it, to avoid wasting time and money on unnecessary purchases.

Some fans were saying that the both takes were correct as the game of basketball has also been facing issues of its own. One fan said, “Pretty accurate take in both instances”, while the other said, “Your correct unfortunately! And so is BJ”. Well, the landscape of the NBA is also changing, with technology playing a pivotal role in shaping the future of the game. One area where this is evident is in the use of wearables, which have been a topic of controversy in the league, but also showcased at the NBA’s annual tech summit. These wearable sensors utilize GPS, accelerometers, gyroscopes, and magnetometers to track movement data, ultimately helping to reduce the risk of injury and preserve the longevity of players’ careers

One fan said, “He’s not wrong”, which again is not a lie. What are your takes on the modern-day technology used in sports? Let us know in the comment section below!
