Davis Love III’s win at 51 is a golf tale everyone can love

Posted Aug 30, 2015
As a player on the PGA Tour, Davis Love III was an afterthought a week ago. It’s not that the 51-year-old Love was irrelevant. He is, after all, the 2016 U.S. Ryder Cup captain. And, before last week, he did have 20 career PGA Tour wins, including one major championship — credentials that eventually will land him in the World Golf Hall of Fame. (New York Post)
