At Golf World, we give our readers the chance to write for our magazine on a week-to-week basis. Our Front 9 Punchline Contest gives fans the opportunity to see their name right next to the biggest stars in the game!
Every Sunday, we invite readers to contribute a snappy comment for one item in the Front 9 feature each week. GW feeds the straight line on our Golf World Facebook page; readers contribute the punchline, which we publish.

But we've narrowed our list of finalists down to the five most witty entries.
This was the set-up line we supplied this week:
"Fresh off his history-making Olympics, Michael Phelps to be Hank Haney's next subject on 'The Haney Project'"The winning punchline, supplied by Scott Goto of Mililani, Hawaii, appears in this week's PGA Championship coverage issue (August 20th magazine):
"We wonder if Haney is trading golf lessons for swimming lessons."
Other punchline finalists:
Patrick Dillon of Merced, Calif.:
"This is one type of stroke he needs help with."
John Green, Woodbury, Minn:
"And after it's over, Haney will write another book: The Big Fish."
John Fox, Wyoming, Ohio:
"Breast stroke, putting stroke: What's the difference?"
Eric Geraci, Grovetown, Georgia:
"Water hazards will mean nothing to me."
