Tom Edrington

Tom Edrington spent the first 10 years of his misguided youth as a sports writer for the Tampa Tribune. His career brought him face to face with many of sports greatest stars -- Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, Muhammad Ali, Don Shula, countless Hall of Fame NFL stars, more PGA Tour players than he can count. In 1980 he was honored by the Golf Writers Association of America for writing the best news story that year, his coverage of Jack Nicklaus' U.S. Open victory at Baltusrol. Today, 36 years later, golf is still a great part of his life, thanks to competitive playing days and the wonderful people he has met on this fabulous journey.

    That’s a very nice hourly rate for a golf lesson. Would love to know how that goes. Well, great to see him contributing to a worthy local cause!

    Wonder about the cost/value of a 9 hole playing lesson with him walking the course with you for a couple of hours. Now THAT would really be something to do. A few inside stories, a little camaraderie, and you might learn a few things that would help your game.

    I used to enjoy those playing lessons involving a celebrity and a tour pro that Golf Channel used to show.

      Yes, I remember those, one of my favorite old, old golf shows was Sam Snead playing 9 holes against Hollywood celebrities, then he’d give them a lesson afterward…..really cool old shows in black and white.
