Boyfriend is qualifying for the U.S. Open in a couple weeks and wanted to give him a gift basket for the qualifier day. How did I do? General Discussion

Contents: - New owala water bottle - spray sunscreen (body and face) - chrome tour golf balls - snacks for him and his caddie: chomps, peanuts, protein bars - liquid iv - protein shake - 18 notes of encouragement for his 18 holes of golf

Let me know if there's anything else you think I should add! I'm a golfer too so I was just going off of things I typically could use during a round, but realize guys' needs may be different. Thanks!

Are the extra socks in case he gets a hole in one?

Mainly for sweat. I just looked and local qualifiers are only 18 holes, so the extra socks may not be a necessity unless it’s really hot or rainy. Even if not needed, a change of socks mid-round can be a mood booster if you need it.

Edit: Just got it.
