This Week In Twitter is a look at some of the week’s best and most entertaining tweets from Buckeyeland and beyond.
The Memorial Tournament, a staple event on the PGA Tour, returned to its annual home of Muirfield Village Golf Club in Dublin, Ohio, this week. And, it’s safe to say, the Buckeyes were out in full force.

During the event, Buckeyes head football coach Ryan Day got some face time with one of Ohio State’s most notable alumni, golfing legend Jack Nicklaus.

While Day met with the Golden Bear, Rory McIlroy — a three-time FedEx Cup Champion — visited Ohio Stadium.

Although plenty of Buckeyes were in attendance, none of them experienced the tournament quite like Maxwell Moldovan. The Ohio State golfer played the course as a non-competitive marker, golfing alongside Davis Thompson on Thursday.
This is cool Ohio State confirms that @MoldovanMaxwell will play in the Memorial Tournament as a non competitive Marker. They have a field of 73 so Max will play with Davis Thompson Thursday and Friday so he does not play alone.

While Ohio State football players and coaches enjoyed some time at the links, Buckeyes men’s basketball coach Jake Diebler showed off his fastball at the Cleveland Guardians game.

It’s almost time for a new era of Ohio State basketball uniforms, and the Buckeyes are taking inquiries regarding their next look.
