The PGA is gonna try to drum up interest in the FedEx Cup Playoffs with a series of “Golfer meets Athlete” commercials. Go here if you have no idea about the Cup and how it works. The running theme is the golfers are seeking advice because they’re in their first playoff. Here’s Sergio Garcia trying to work on his game face:
Since Serg sounds like a 14 year old, it’s gonna be hard for him to intimidate anybody.
Jim Furyk turns to Jerome Bettis:
Jerome likes to eat..I didn’t know that. They need to cut a commercial with Angel Cabrera. I picture Angel sitting in a foggy room, smoking a cigarette, and asking Ray Lewis for playoff advice.
Here’s a Tiger commercial, which according to this article, is not the one that will be running. The official commercial shows Tiger lacing up his shoes and whistling “Eye of the Tiger”. He’s sticking with the “No living man shall tell me shit” theme in this ad:
I don’t know when that was shot, but Tiger’s been eating better since then.
If you haven’t had enough of these sidebusters check out Ernie Els and Phil Simms.
