The Spike in Controversy: Lucas Glover's Shoes and the AimPoint Fallout The recent 3M Open has left the golf world abuzz over a controversy that wasn't even supposed to be a story – or so we thought.
PGA Tour player Lucas Glover removed his shoes during a round, sparking speculation about whether it was a protest against the AimPoint putting technique.
But as it often does in sports, reality has deflated the grand narrative. Glover explained on Instagram that he took off his shoes solely to avoid making spike marks around the hole.
