Question

Fans discuss the spelling of the golf ball brand "Titleist" and whether it should be "Titlist," with one poster explaining that "titlist" is the correct term for a tournament winner.

If it's a "Titleist", then shouldn't actually be spelt "Titlist" ?

Who's keeping a tit list? I nominate Sidra Holland (they're real and they're spectacular) or Sue Ellen Mishke (the heir to the O'Henry candy fortune)

Actually, the winner of a golf tournament would indeed be called the titlist. The odds are about four to one he (or she) would have been playing a Titleist.
