    One of the top 3 Amateur golf events in the USA and #7 in the World Amateur rankings. It starts today at the Honors Course in Tenn. Nephew Matt Van Zandt is in the field. He has cracked the top 4000 in the World Amateur Golf Rankings! :)

    For those of you who follow golf...check out Davis Love iVth's Scorecard, he's +18. Painful, looks like one of mine. He plays collegiately at Alabama.

    Man he had a rough back nine today, haven't talked to him but I'm guessing that his driver went south on him. But he still made the cut, pretty impressive to me as I said this is one of the top Amateur tourney's in the world.
