“Playing Dirty” is a quest to rediscover the soul and spirit of golf in an era of greed, entitlement and sportswashing from the professional game’s civil war. My debut book available for order #golf #books back9press.com/pages/beall

TGL continually pissing off Duke fans might be its biggest selling point through four weeks

The first at Machrihanish, the best opening hole in golf, suffered significant damage from Storm Eowyn according to the club. Hopefully the links is back on its feet in short order

Hasn't Ohio suffered enough

Going through camera roll for book and came across some pics from Carradale, a lovely 9-holer just north of Campbeltown and one of my favorite stops during book research. Those making the trip to Machrihanish need to make the detour! #golf

Reheating this column amid the Ryder Cup payment and ticket matters. My worry is the very thing that makes this event so special—its communal appeal—is the very thing being stripped from its soul #golf www.golfdigest.com/story/ryder-...

The Ryder Cup tix controversy underlines the nonsense of the past 3 years in golf-the game’s central actors/orgs care more about themselves rather than where their actions are taking the sport. Forget a Tour-PIF deal ; if golf fails to rebuild its equity with fans, none of it will matter
