Sauce Gardner’s X account is a goldmine, full of colorful escapades and details about his life. It’s no secret that he likes online gaming and bowling, but now he has found another side quest to dabble in his free time: golf. Like many pro players, the Jets CB has finally pulled out his 9-iron and entered the world of golf. Even though it’s only been one day, Sauce is already getting golf lessons from professionals.

Sauce posted multiple videos of himself enjoying a day of golf. In one clip, he complained about not being able to drive the ball properly and asked for tips. Little did he know, tips would come flying in. Taking notes, he applied the advice and showed significant improvement in the very next video.

The PGA Tour and PGA of America took it upon themselves to improve Gardner’s golf game. Addressing the Jets CB, PGA Coach Justin Kraft dissected Sauce’s swing and pointed out the mistakes he had been making.

Kraft gave him pro tips on improving his balance, swing, and pressure distribution throughout his body. Sauce was grateful for the tips as he plans to use them when he hits the course again.

 

Fans loved watching Sauce Gardner get hooked on golf and devote his time to it. They were impressed by the Twitter golf community coming to the Jets CB’s rescue, and they appreciated seeing social media used in a positive, helpful way.
