From the Masters to the Ryder Cup, Davis Love III keeps a lot on his plate
Posted Apr 9, 2016
Grandfather Davis Love III turned back the clock in August. Now he’s working to change the future of the U.S. Ryder Cup in October. Five years after neck surgery and five months after foot surgery, Love won the 2015 Wyndham Championship in August with a final-round 64 for his first PGA Tour title in seven years and the 21st of his career. With the victory at age 51, Love earned a return trip to the Masters.
