Reading a comment online this last week, Scott Verplank said of the golf course for the US Senior Mens' Open, "Everyone will really like the renovation of Oak Tree National" As a former Oklahoma State Cowboy, he's played there many a time and certainly would know.
I've never met Scott but when I was a junior golfer in Austin, he was the #1 junior player in Texas in the early 80s. He of course got a scholarship to play at Oklahoma State which is the Duke of men's golf, having won multiple championships. He then went on to a long and successful career on the PGA Tour and is now continuing at age 50+ on the Senior Tour.
So to think that a junior golfer is now a senior golfer is quite a jump. Like seeing that a Playmate is younger than you, it makes you appreciate time passing.
