Golf is a daunting game. Of that, we are all in agreement, from Rory down to every dub on the planet. But amidst all the variegated instruction, tips, and YouTube vids, there are two essentials that, if you follow, will serve you well when all other tips have been lost as you stand on the first tee, totally overwhelmed by the task ahead of you.

Another of our four majors starts tomorrow. This one, the PGA, is on a time-tested course in Rochester NY, and it should be a corker, as an old New England friend used to call it. My pick: Max Homa. My brother Hank’s pick: Scottie Scheffler. The stakes: a tall Philadelphia water ice. But for you: enjoyment!

My song Stones, which can be heard on streaming sources worldwide, from Spotify to YouTube, is looking for professional singers, TV shows, movies, etc. to pick it up and add to their repertoires, productions, and shows. Check it out. Spread the word. Break a leg. If you are connected with such people, let my producer Trystan Matthews know about it at [email protected]. Many thanks.
