Ryan McCormick has not been having much fun this year as a professional golfer, so he decided to control his anger by taping his mouth shut.
“Been having not-so-fun times this year on the golf course. Pretty angry and mad,” he said. “So I figured I’ve tried a lot of things, and I just figured I’d shut myself up. So I put tape over my mouth.”

McCormick, relegated back to the developmental Korn Ferry Tour after a year on the PGA Tour in 2024, has only played the weekend three times in six starts and has yet to finish in the top 40.
He said he has read books and talked to people. Nothing seems to work.
