Marcel Siem: Course Records with a Hangover
Marcel Siem, one of the most colorful German pros on the DP World Tour, made headlines again in 2025 – this time beyond the usual sporting context. On the \”Life on Tour\” podcast, the 44-year-old spoke about three personal course records he claims to have achieved completely hungover and without sleep. Most legendary was his round at the 2015 Pebble Beach Pro-Am: after a night of Long Island Iced Teas, beer, and champagne, Siem played one of the best rounds of his life despite several breaks to vomit. He shared the course record with golf legends like Tom Watson, Jack Nicklaus, and Tiger Woods.
Ryder Cup 2025: European Team’s Exuberant Victory Celebration
Following a narrow 15-13 Ryder Cup 2025 victory, the European players left the tension of the singles matches behind and celebrated wildly. During the press conference after the trophy ceremony, party plans were already discussed: Tyrrell Hatton joked that Sepp Straka would remain \”undefeated\” in partying, and Justin Rose recalled his own extensive celebration after the 2018 win. Shane Lowry announced plans to leave early – but how the night unfolded only became clear from Lowry’s next social media post. The festivities began with fans’ chants and continued on the team bus. Champagne showers and a festive mood accompanied the team as they celebrated their triumph off the course.
La Jenny: The World’s Only Naturist Golf Course
La Jenny golf course in France’s Nouvelle-Aquitaine region offers golfers a unique experience: nude golfing is not only permitted, but expressly encouraged. Surrounded by pine forests and dunes, players can improve their technique on six holes – three Par-3 and three Par-4 – free from polo shirts, pants, or belts. Since opening in 1993, La Jenny has established itself as the only officially recognized naturist golf course worldwide, attracting nature-loving golfers who value freedom of movement and a relaxed atmosphere. After their round, guests can enjoy drinks and relaxation at the clubhouse. Unlike other places such as Cypress Cove Resort in Florida, nudity here is mandatory, not optional.
