TaylorMade Golf
In what’s become a yearly tradition, TaylorMade has once again rounded up their top Tour staffers to add a little holiday comedy to our Christmas week.
And this year, instead of one Christmas card, TaylorMade has gone with several Christmas cards, each molded after some of the most beloved Christmas movies.
Rory McIlroy, Charley Hull and Collin Morikawa in ‘Hole In One’
First off, we have Rory McIlroy, Collin Morikawa and Charley Hull recreating the iconic movie poster for the classic “Home Alone,” starring Macaulay Culkin as Kevin McCallister. It’s a little difficult to get behind Rory as young Kevin given the light shadow and salt-and-pepper hair he’s been sporting as well, but Rory has been golf’s “it” boy for some now, so it’s a pretty natural fit otherwise.
Charley Hull’s casting as Joe Pesci’s Harry might actually be spot on given the colorful role she’s assumed this year on the LPGA. Collin Morikawa as his co-henchman, Marv, doesn’t really fit, however. Morikawa doesn’t seem like someone who could steal from anyone, let alone a little boy left at home from his family’s vacation … unless it was Rory.
Tiger Woods in ‘TaylorMade Golf’s Tiger’s Vacation’

Tiger Woods playing Chevy Chase’s roll of Clark W. “Sparky” Griswold Jr. in “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation” was a good fit for the costume. Note the subtle nod to Tiger’s new Sun Day Red brand, which is part of TaylorMade’s portfolio, with his new logo on the Santa cap. Wonder how many of those they could sell if it was available?
Tommy Fleetwood in ‘Drive Hard’

Yes, it IS a Christmas movie. #TeamTaylorMade pic.twitter.com/yeUMPHVopD
We can’t tell you for sure that “Die Hard” is a Christmas movie, but TaylorMade is here to state “Drive Hard” clearly is.
If there’s anyone who could muster Bruce Willis’ charisma, it’s Tommy Fleetwood. Tough to picture anyone else on TaylorMade’s staff in a dirty tank top and pretending a 5-iron was a gun. Fleetwood gives off more international secret agent than New York City police detective, but it’s close enough to make it work.
Scottie Scheffler in ‘The Scottie Clause’

End the year as the unquestioned No. 1 player in the world, you get to unseat Tiger Woods as Jolly ol’ St. Nick. But we recommend Scottie lay off the milk and cookies if he’s to defend his title at Augusta National next year.
Nelly Korda in ‘Nelly’

Just like Will Ferrell’s Buddy Hobbs towered amongst Santa’s Elves in “Elf,” Nelly Korda towered amongst the rest of the LPGA as she put together one of the greatest seasons by an American player this millennium, winning seven times.
It also fits as Nelly’s 5-foot-10 frame also sees her looking over the rest of her competition.
Brooke Henderson in ‘A Canadian Story’
And finally, @BrookeHenderson as Ralphie! #TeamTaylorMade pic.twitter.com/ioi9xMiNqx

As the winningest Canadian golfer of all time, Brooke Henderson is worthy of her own stand-alone film. It would be easy to guess that her version of a Red Ryder Carbine Action BB gun would be adding to her two major titles from 2016 and 2022.
