Around 3:30 p.m. local time on Saturday, an ice cream truck pedaled its cool treats near Detroit Golf Club. Its whimsical jingle rang out to signal its location. I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream.
Matthew Wolff screams. He heard it after rolling in a birdie on the 5th hole at the golf course. He heard it for the next 13 holes, too. All the way to the clubhouse, where he held a three-shot lead after three rounds of the Rocket Mortgage Classic.
“I have to give credit to the ice cream truck that was circling the property,” Wolff said after his round. “I’m not joking actually. Like I think on – what is it – 5, the par 3, I made the longest putt of the day. It was like a 35-or-something-like-that-footer and I heard the ice cream truck and I’m like, I have a good feeling about this. Just had that little like ice cream truck song in my head and I think that helped me just not think about the speed or the line or anything, just keep my head free, which I’ve been giving a lot of credit to this week.”
On Sunday, Wolff tees off at 2:05 p.m., in the final pairing with Ryan Armour.
Sundaes taste even better on Sundays.
“I’m hitting really well, putting good, doing everything well,” Wolff said. “Just going to go out there, have fun and hopefully I hear the ice cream truck a little bit.”
