Welcome to this week’s Social Eyes. The European Tour announced some big changes to its membership and qualifying criteria for the Ryder Cup today.
But it’s another change that Sir Nick Faldo would like to see – the logo.
While your fixing things, why not have a go at our logo?! Bring it up to 2018, looks more like 1820! #JustSayin! ⛳️ https://t.co/aPZvJA0wQc

Ken Brown agreed.
@EuropeanTour It looked old when it was new.

Would this be a suitable logo for the #EuropeanTour
RT if you think so. pic.twitter.com/yWsQxOMtfk
And others seem to want a Seve Ballesteros silhouette, too.
the Seve silhouette is iconic and would be a fitting tribute to the greatest #Golf

Life is good for Justin Thomas at the minute.
Back-to-back PGA Tour wins. $2.3m earned. So what to do? Firstly, buy a new set of wheels of course.

And he also cheekily chimed in on a Golf Channel Twitter debate after his record 49-under-par over two tournaments in Hawaii.

Over the weekend, this tweet from the PGA Tour caused quite a stir.

It earned a mountain of replies, which were subsequently deleted.

PGA Tour pro Steven Bowditch tried to make a joke of it, while fellow pro John Peterson tagged world No.1 amateur Maverick McNealy.

His response? Just perfect.

Rory McIlroy’s rib stress fracture gave Golf Channel analyst Brandel Chamblee another chance to reference the four-time major winner’s gym work.

Whether McIlroy saw the above tweet or not remains to be seen, but he
couldn’t help but jump in and put down Chamblee on a different topic.
Chamblee was arguing with a couple of followers saying that most players these days hit down on the ball off the tee.
Jack Nicklaus did not hit up on his drives. Some of today's longest hitters hit up on their drives, but most/average hit down

It's 2017 and Jordan is hitting a 3 wood in that photo. To get the most out of modern equipment you need to hit up on the driver. #fact pic.twitter.com/sBGGMN9lBn

Pretty sure hitting up with your driver works @chambleebrandel 😉 pic.twitter.com/OLU3ZO815C

Dustin Johnson and Paulina Gretzky starred in ANOTHER wacky home music video.
The song this time? Beyonce – Single Ladies.
And finally…
It was DJ by name, DJ by nature ahead of the Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship.
The 2016 US Open champion joined Rickie Fowler, Ian Poulter and Henrik Stenson on the decks with DJ Reggie Yates.
Retune your expectations.
