PR is a PR Nightmare
I’ve often stuck up for Patrick Reed. I like his game and his golf swing. He plays with a lot of passion and gusto. He’s a perfect guy to have on your side in team events. He wins on extremely tough and famous courses; Doral, Augusta, and now Torrey Pines to name a few. In...

Naughty List: Tiger Haters

Its obvious young Charlie has inherited all of his father’s gifts, but he has received some world-class guidance as well. From his incredible impact position to his...
