Personal Bests
The big-name architects designed courses that anyone-including you-can play. Here are the best from each of them. One of the great things about golf is how many courses are open to the public.

Consummate Cabo
Let me start by giving Cabo the ultimate compliment: I’d go even if there were no golf. I’d go for the resorts, dining, water sports, whale watching and deep-sea fishing, culture and history, nightlife (both touristy and authentic), beaches, and the weather. Especially the weather.

Ben Wright: Heroes In Harmony
Of the four major champions crowned in 2004, clearly the most unlikely winner was Todd Hamilton at the British Open at Royal Troon. As Hamilton holed out on No. 18 to finish off Ernie Els in a four-hole playoff, my thoughts drifted back some three decades, to a celebration at that venerable Scottish links that […]
Double Eagle Club
John McConnell believes in doing things right. That’s how this Columbus, Ohio, resident brought Worthington Industries from an $1,800 start-up operation in his basement to a Fortune 500 company with more than $1 billion in sales and 7,000 employees.
