Didn’t see anything on this, James did a short interview with the golf channel, he’s playing in a tournament this week sometime.

Good luck Bubba!

Isn’t that a “JR” thing? Everyone I know that’s a JR doesn’t go by their dads name.

Hangon, did they say he's playing the LPGA? Isn't that the ladies program?

I guess it's this....

Hilton Grand Vacation Tournament of Champions

Description:

The most unique tournament in golf returns to the course this January with a new name and location. The Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions brings together some of the world’s top professional women golfers to play alongside a roster of world-class sports and entertainment celebrities.

The 2022 Tournament of Champions will take place on January 20-23 at the beautiful Lake Nona Golf & Country Club in Orlando.

All four days of play are nationally televised, with Thursday and Friday on Golf Channel, and Saturday and Sunday on Golf Channel and NBC. But nothing beats catching the competition live from Lake Nona Golf & Country Club in Orlando. A limited number of tickets are available for fans to purchase, and private concerts and other tailored package options are available for sponsors. With private evening performances, a world-class field of players, and unforgettable action, you don’t want to miss this one-of-a-kind event.

I dunno. His name is James. His dad's name is Big James.

Also. The Golf Channel guy called him "The fastest man on Earth". Ugh. Brings back memories of that awful Jimmy Kimmel segment with Dion Sanders. These talking heads know nothing about him, and want to act like they're boys from wayback. James, uh, Bubba, was nice as usual- "I just hope I have fun....." I wish James had just told him to shut his pie hole and then jumped on his new CRF and dug a trench across the 3rd tee.

Yeah, pretty much.

It sounds like it's a tournament within a tournament. The ladies are playing for a $1.5 million purse and the celebrities are playing for 500k.

He's playing in a Pro-Am.

The Pro women are paired with amateur celebs. They dont have to be women.

Not rocket science here.. its a special event where high end LPGA pros play alongside "celebs"... Bubba is still a sports celeb... he will be playing alongside some chic that can actually play golf... what can't you understand???

No matter what, it is awesome to see James Stewart back doing anything in the public eye. We watched him literally grow up, and now he's just a man free to do whatever he wants. Pretty cool to see.

Not sure what's so confusing. Pro-ams are pretty common in golf, this one just happens to be coed.

The whole time he was doing that I was chuckling thinking about ricky bobby and what do I do with my hands.

Hey man calm down. I don't know shit about golf. The only pro am I've ever seen was when Happy Gilmore played with Bob Barker. Bob beat the shit out of Happy...

The idea of James playing golf is cool because it's so different from the intensity of the motocross track. It's actually relaxing just to contemplate that he enjoys it.

Starts Thursday. I'm going to try and tune in to see if I can catch a glimpse of his golf game or atleast see where he ranks.

Something you probably never thought (5 years ago) you’d be typing today! Same here, I’ll tune in or look forward to the youtube clips.

Shot an 87. Not great but for a guy out there just having fun it's not a bad score. Difference in 87 and 80 is maybe hitting 2 or 3 shots better. Doubles killed his game. Wonder if they're playing from the tips or somewhere forward of the tips.

It's great to see him again and see him enjoying life. Miss that guy in SX. His interview presence is pretty natural and funny. Would love to swing a round with him.
