About the author

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.

    Who says Phil’s days as a pick are gone?
    That would be Patrick Reed…and even he may be picked again.
    Phil just needs to get his game tighter this year and he could very well be in, especially with Reed atop the naughty list.
    Phil’s issues are not age or distance.
    To make it all Lefty needs to do is putt a little better and drive a bit more reliable…ok maybe more than a bit.
    1 well timed win would be enough for Lefty, but even a run of good finishes may get it done.
    Again, on US soil the Americans have more options because they control the set up.
    It’s in Europe Lefty should never ever play team events because they still have rough over there. But the old man is not the only one who should maybe stay home; it’s basically all the American stars including the Tiger trying to become the goat.

      Phil can’t find a fairway with GPS, much less his driver!
