Do You Agree with Patrick Reed attacks?

Golf for Beginners enjoys being objective about all news and wonders about the validity of some claims, so today we briefly review the infractions and conversations over Patrick Reed - is he really a villain? Did he break the rules in the 11th bunker at the Hero World Challenge?

Are YOU finding it difficult to root for Patrick Reed?

How to Organize a Successful Golf Tournament Fundraiser

When it comes to raising money for an effort or an organization, there are all sorts of ideas out there for people to generate giving or loyalty through a golf tournament fundraiser.

Some fundraisers are spread over days, if not weeks. Others don’t sound like very much fun at all.

One that’s a favorite of ours, of course, is a golf fundraising event.
