Alright, let’s talk about this young fella, Justin Thomas, and that thing he wears on his arm. You know, that black band? Folks are curious, so let me tell you what I’ve heard around.
What’s that black thing on his arm, anyway?
Well, they call it a WHOOP band, or some kinda arm band. It ain’t no fancy jewelry, that’s for sure. It’s like a, uh, a little computer thingy for his body. He wears it up on his arm, near that muscle part, you know? This bicep they call it. They say it tells him how hard he’s working his body when he’s playing that golf game.
- It ain’t made of no hard stuff, mind you. It’s that stretchy cloth stuff, so it don’t bother him none when he’s swinging them clubs.
- They say it measures all sorts of things, like how tired he gets, how fast his heart’s beating, and even how well he’s sleeping. Fancy stuff, I tell ya!
Why’s he wearin’ it?
Now, these young golfers, they take their bodies real serious. This Justin fella, he plays golf real good, on that PGA Tour they talk about. He’s one of them top players, you know? So, he wants to make sure he’s always at his best. That band helps him do that. It lets him know when he needs to rest and when he can push himself harder. It’s like havin’ a little coach right there on his arm, tellin’ him what to do.
Is it just him wearin’ it?
Nope, he ain’t the only one. I heard tell of some other fellas wearin’ these things too. Guys like… uh… Scotty somethin’ or other, and Billy somethin’, too. Seems like all them golfers are into this kinda stuff now. They all want to play better, I guess. Can’t blame them, wanting to be the best.
So, does it work?
Well, I reckon it must, or he wouldn’t be wearin’ it, would he? This Justin guy, he’s winnin’ all sorts of them golf games. So, maybe that little band is helpin’ him out. Or maybe he’s just plain good at golf. Who knows? But it sure is somethin’, ain’t it? All this technology these days. Back in my day, we just played till we were tired. No fancy bands or nothin’.
What’s it made of?
I ain’t touched it myself, but from what I see on that tee-vee, it looks like it’s made of that stretchy cloth stuff. You know, the kind that stretches when you pull it. It’s gotta be comfortable, or he wouldn’t be wearin’ it all day long while he’s out there playin’ golf. They say it’s some special kind of stretchy cloth that moves with him. They wouldn’t want it to get in the way of his swing, now would they?
Other golfers use it too?
Yep, like I said, other golfers wear these things too. I heard of that fella, Rory somethin’-or-other, wearin’ one. Seems like it’s a popular thing with them golfers. They all want to know what’s going on with their bodies. It’s like they got little computers on their arms, tellin’ them all their secrets. Times sure have changed. Back in my day, we just listened to our bodies and took a break when we were tired. But these young fellas, they got all this fancy stuff now.
Justin Thomas is a good player.
Now, let me tell ya, this Justin Thomas, he’s a real good golfer. He’s been winnin’ all kinds of games and doin’ real well on that PGA Tour. He’s one of them fellas that you just know is gonna be good. He’s got that somethin’ special, you know? And maybe, just maybe, that little band on his arm is helpin’ him out a little bit. It’s hard work, being a golfer, and you need all the help you can get. So good for him, I say, good for him.
So there you have it. That’s what I know about that thing on Justin Thomas’s arm. It’s a fancy little computer thingy that helps him play better golf. And from the looks of it, it’s working pretty darn good.
