After the conclusion of the Ryder Cup, the PGA Tour is having the Sanderson Farms Championship. When world-class athletes are in one arena vying for the trophy, the field is nothing but a stress zone. But everyone has their own way of dealing with it.
With this leading man, the case is very different. He maintains a consistent schedule to be on top of his game. One can say he is a “little stitious” when it comes to his glory and his $1.476 million prize money, but his routine astounds the fans.

Special choice for the leading man
You would understand what this is about if you had seen “Silver Lining Playbook.” Robert De Niro’s character in the film is based on an ardent Philadelphia Eagles supporter who thinks his team can only win by doing certain odd things, like holding the remote in a specific way and having intrusive ideas about symmetry and order.
The point is, anyone can have various superstitions related to the game. And in this case, Ben Griffin, who is leading the scorecard, has his own ritual.
The PGA Tour shared a statement by the American golfer on X (formerly Twitter) where he said, ”I’m gonna go eat dinner at the same restaurant tonight that I have the last 3 nights…. Thai Food every single night. Pad Thai with no egg.” And the post is captioned, ”Not superstitious but a little stitious.”

Well, this is unusual, but looking at his game up until now, it seems like Griffin can’t take a risk now. But his unusual choice surely caught fans’ attention.
But Pad Thai is incomplete without egg
The most shocking thing for fans to digest was Griffin having eggless food, which should have eggs. Many came up with their own explanations.

Egg-scuse me?! No egg. 👀 Go earn that win, Ben! 😊👍

While for one fan, Griffin’s choice of leaving egg lost all trust.
No egg? I ain't betting on him.
