Golf In The News – August 18
Lots of interesting golf articles & angles in the news lately! Here’s a few that caught my eye:
- Who Owns Morefar Back O’Beyond Golf Course? – investigation into a mysteriously deserted private course in New York. Very few people here ever set foot on Morefar, he said. The course gets like six rounds a day.
- Callaway v Titleist: Round 2 – a new wrinkle in the Pro V1 lawsuit, as the US Court of Appeals overturned a previous ruling and has ordered a new trial in this case that led to a ban on retail sales of the most popular golf ball on the PGA Tour.
- A New Asian Surge On The Way to PGA? – Y.E. Yang became the first Asian-born golfer to win a major, but he’s only one of an exploding population of golfers from the region. The PGA is reaching out more, too, with a World Golf Championship event, the HSBC Champions, being played in Shanghai this November. Stay ahead of the curve and get filled in with this analysis from the AP.
