If you don't like to read that much may I suggest you view an excellent documentary I recently watched called Uneven Fairways. You may have already seen it but it is an excellent and very informative account of the trials, tribulations and victories of an underated league of players.

Here's the description: Take a rare glimpse into the Negro Golf Leagues, and the African American men who were forbidden to play golf at its highest level, but refused to take no for an answer. Rather than giving up their dreams, they built their own courses, their own tour, and ultimately, their own place in history. While the prize money was slim, each man won something that money couldn't buy: the chance to play. "The Story of the Negro Leagues of Golf" is a groundbreaking documentary celebrating African-American contributions to golf. Produced in partnership with Moxie Pictures, it celebrates the golfers who confronted prejudice and endured indignities for the right to play golf at its highest level. Hosted by Samuel L. Jackson and based on the books Uneven Lies by Pete McDaniel and Forbidden Fairways by Calvin H. Sinnette Uneven Fairways is a groundbreaking documentary celebrating the men and women who had the courage to follow their dreams-and the skill to make them come true. Delve into golf history told through interviews, never before seen footage, and real-life stories from the history-makers of the game, both past and present. Hear how their stories of courage and perseverance changed golf forever.

Agree he is a racist, but #1?  I think some of the Fox News guys or Rush Limbaugh would give him a run for his money.

BTW, anyone else but me think Costas could has been Marty McFly's stand-in in Back to the Future ?

    • Day 126: 5/1/24 Putting and chipping practice. Slow motion swings with 8-iron.
    • #4 - 1st hole at Kingsbarns I rolled in a 15 footer for birdie. Showed my caddie an old guy could still play a bit. #3 - 18th hole at Basin Harbor Club, Vergennes, VT. I had played matches against my nephew over the years. He had never beaten me although through the years he had become a long hitting teenage golfer. I was 1 up but bunkered near the 18th green. My nephew had a long putt for birdie. I splashed out of the bunker to 4 feet. He rolled his first putt close and I gave him the par. Sadly for him, I rolled mine in and won our last match. He went off to college and then Europe for a Ph. D. It was our last match. Family champion forever. #2 - First playoff hole in the City of Livonia, MI “65 & Over” division. I rolled in an 8 footer that broke about 4-5 inches. #10 Whispering Willows GC. #1  18th hole at TPC Prestancia, Sarasota, FL. A 4 foot slicing putt for par to beat the prior year’s Member/Guest winners and win the Member/Guest with my father at his club. I was having heart palpitations as I played the final hole solo when my father put two in the water. There was never a better golf sight for me when that ball dove into the hole.
    • Finally, wedges getting somewhere. This one a punch gap from 87 yards to about 12 feet. Contact and ball flight absolute restaurant quality. It's nice when grass comes back.
    • Tiger on the Today show today. At 3:25 he says he's working on keeping his arms in more and rotating his hips better. Nice. 
    • Day 11- Slow,  short swings with short practice club.
