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.

    The PGA Tour must be cringing at Stacy Lewis’ classy decision to donate her winnings this week to the relief efforts. If she holds on to win, we will have a lone LPGA player donating an amount approaching the PGA’s “generous” ante of $250,000.

    You mentioned the contributions of several sports organizations and people in a previous column. My son told me last night that Dallas Cowboys players were participating in a telethon of some sort, and that Jerry Jones called in with a pledge of a cool $1,000,000.

    Seems like most of the sports world is rising to the occasion, and it’s great to see.

    Awesome, Stacy. And sad, PGA.
