A scramble is an egg-cellent way to play a tournament. (I couldn’t resist).
More context for the joke below:
A scramble always sounds easy until you remember other people will be watching you hit the ball. That’s usually the exact moment confidence disappears. This cartoon gets that feeling right — finding out you’re playing in a tournament is one thing, finding out it’s a scramble is something else entirely.
Most golfers like the idea of helping the team, at least in theory. In reality, it just means more pressure and a lot of pretending your hands aren’t shaking on the first tee. It’s still fun, but it’s a different kind of fun than playing alone.
