Justin Thomas was not born or would have never heard of the multi-Academy award winning movie – ‘An American in Paris’ – starring Gene Kelly.

TPC  River Highlands, CT .. Rory McIlroy found the start to his Travelers Championship third round interrupted by a nosy squirrel, who forced him to back off on the first tee. The furry fan had both McIlroy and the crowd into hysterics and, though his bushy-tailed beastie was twice ushered away, it managed to defy the stewards and returned to the tee in time to watch the drive.
