👋 {{readername | Hey golf fans}},
Sunday would be a day to remember for the pro who “almost” got it done. “Almost” because rules officials slapped him with a two-stroke penalty that eventually cost him the tournament he was leading until that point. We have covered the entire story. Plus, the concerning health update from Scottie Scheffler, a $10,000 record, and a bit more.
Onward…

Your K-Cups Sat in a Warehouse for Months. Taste It?
Here's why grocery store pods taste flat no matter which brand you grab: coffee's flavor comes from delicate oils that start evaporating right after roasting. Store-bought K-Cups spend months in warehouses and trucks before they ever hit your Keurig — and some big brands deliberately over-roast so you won't notice the staleness.
Angelino's, a family-owned Los Angeles roastery, skips all of it. They roast, grind, and pack their own pods, then ship within days of roasting — never months. Compatible with all Keurig® brewers, from 39¢ a cup, with 50+ flavors from Breakfast Blend to Jamaican Me Crazy. New customers get 15% off their first order — no code, no subscription required.
