Secret Tour Pro?

ShivasIrons

Anyone follow the secret tour pro on twitter?

Who do you think it is and why?

If you think he's a fake, why would you say that too?

Followed him for a while now. A lot of people seem to think its Geoff Ogilvy, however I think there is multiple users of the profile.

I feel that a group of players post on that account, possibly European Lads

Think it is a fake, a guy that works for the golf channel tweeted pictures that STP used and then showed the original. It looks like he was just copying images from other pros and posting them

More than likely it's an account opened and controlled by the PGAtour.

Surely it's not one player.. look at the images on the feed he uses titleist clubs and mix between Nike adidas and footjoy shoes.. if one of these were paying him endorsements they'd be pissed he is wearing the other two..he also seems to play in all the comps there can't be many if any one player that does that!!..

It might be one person but not a tour pro at all, if it was a tour pro/pros then the photos would be current images and not ones lifted from Google and cropped. What tour pro has time to do that and tweet 13,000 times or more year?

Not sure if he's a tour pro or not, but he gets a lot of chat from players like Rory McIlroy, Ogilvy (and his wife) as well as guys like Denis Pugh.

They all seem to know him and Pugh has discussed having meals with him.

From what i have heard its pretty wide known on tour its a fake, i kept asking him to verify the pics he was putting up, like put a newspaper with the date, or report the pic with a pen held up......... After asking these awkward questions for a few days, he blocked me.. As he has done to anyone that persisted for verification of pictures..

Pity though coz the idea is very good!

I wouldn't have either. Too much data available in a photo that could help identify you.

there is no way on earth that he can write or Say in so limited characters anything that doesn't involve the most complex, convoluted statements..

Ogilvy is far more measured and intelligent in his opinions then this guy.

This guy is not a pro, he tweeted recently about talking to Lowry and Harrington about the England Ireland rugby match but Lowry for sure spoke to no one about it and no one asked him about it either.

Yeah definitely is Ogilvy.
