    So you wanna be a PGA Tour pro, huh? First, obviously, you have to be off-the-charts great at golf. But you also have to be pretty darn good at travel.

    As Michael Kim detailed last year, getting around to all those tournaments really adds up. However, the hectic schedule can also be very stressful. And for the latest example of that, we turn to Dylan Wu.

    Wu finished No. 132 on the FedEx Cup Fall list in 2024, which means he only has conditional PGA Tour status for 2025. And that adds a whole other layer to this nomadic lifestyle (He talked about this more with Golf Digest in 2023). As Ryan French (AKA Monday Q Info on Twitter) pointed out, this past week has been a particularly wild journey for the 28-year-old.

    Sheesh. That's a LOT of effort. And again, as an alternate, Wu isn't even guaranteed to play in this week's American Express even after hustling to get to Palm Springs.

    We see what you did there, Dylan, with that song choice. Gotta have good vibes. Dylan also added this about his crazy travel schedule:

    Hey, you gotta do what you gotta do. Well said, Dylan. Good luck getting there safely—and getting into the tournament.
