Danny was ahead of the chasing pack, and barring any horror shows on the greens the Green Jacket was his. Peter wasn’t about to let him off lightly if anything went wrong though…

Teacher Peter knew Monday was going to be a struggle, but he didn’t care.
When I'm too tired to teach a good lesson tomorrow, and some kid spits at me, I'm just gonna smile and say 'I won Twitter' *drops mic
