Sadly, there are many Willis Reed obits today but you don’t want to miss this one by @HarveyAraton who thoughtfully chronicled Reed for decades in print, documentaries, you name it. nytimes.com/2023/03/21/spo…

Back at the Masters for a 23rd time, I wrote about how Tiger Woods, now 47, is trying to gracefully acquiesce to a new fate in the aftermath of his 2021 car crash. nytimes.com/2023/04/04/spo…

I realized this morning just how much I’m going to miss Rick Wolff’s WFAN show on Sundays. Rick’s thoughtful voice and dedication was an invaluable resource and service to the youth sports community.

Why were golfers wearing caps backwards at Saturday’s P.G.A. Champ? It makes me feel cool,” Justin Rose said. But that’s not really why. I got the players to explain. nytimes.com/2023/05/20/spo…

If watching the P.G.A. Champ final today, take note of the glorious, old trees everywhere. 100 years ago, a pioneering physician/club member decided to plant 40,000 tree seedlings. Or was it 50K? My story on that journey: nytimes.com/2023/05/21/spo…

I walked the golf course today with Rickie Fowler U.S. Open ready to write about his long arduous road back from #173 in the world. Then he gave the story an exclamation point with a historic, record-setting 62. nytimes.com/2023/06/15/spo…

In the months after the death of Wyndham Clark’s mother, who had introduced him to golf as a toddler, he struggled on and off the course. On Friday, he was briefly atop the leaderboard at the U.S. Open. nyti.ms/3JkGURA by Bill Pennington

It might have been fitting if McIlroy, the man from Holywood, No. Ireland who is enduring a tough year on and off the golf course, nearly won at L.A. Country Club. Instead he fell just short. nytimes.com/2023/06/18/spo…

If you want to know why Tyler Kepner will always remain an indispensable read, this column is a prime example. Perspective, thorough reporting & a thoughtful, important interview with an often reclusive subject. Bravo. nytimes.com/2023/08/21/spo…

I’ve know John Sterling for 35 years and every encounter with him was a hoot. But the most fun was following him around for a week for this 2011 New York Times feature. The man is delightfully one of a kind.

I talked to lindsey vonn about her comeback from retirement. Favorite line: “I feel like I have more juice in my lemon.” nytimes.com/2024/11/14/us/…

Baseball writers get a lot of grief on Hall of Fame, believe me I know from experience, but for Adam Vinatieri not to be a first ballot NFL Hall of Famer is a complete joke.

Absolutely picture perfect day at Surburban Golf Club in North Jersey, the home course of NYPost_Cannizzaro. A beautiful albeit tight A.W. Tillinghaust design with fun and challenging green complexes. Oh, and I had a bat shit crazy Front 9 in my match with Brian Giuffra.
