Happy December golf fans, and welcome to Hittin’ the Links. Q-School is heating up with one round to go. There are several big names fighting for their card this year including non other than Camilo Villegas. And it’s not looking so great for Camilo right now, we might have to watch Spiderman on the Web.com Tour in 2013.
In this edition of HtL we begin with a look at Micheal Phelps’ aspirations, then look at the belly ban, and check out what Tiger did to keep his World Challenge afloat. Also, we investigate an idiot calling someone a cheater, look into some golf games, and do a wrap-up of the week’s events. Read on!
