Davis Love III Inducted Into World Golf Hall of Fame

Posted Sep 27, 2017
Davis Love III was among four players inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in a ceremony rich in history and praise for the family who helped get them there -- and for Lorena Ochoa, a family that allowed her to leave with purpose. "Golf has improved my life in every way," said Love, a PGA champion and two-time Ryder Cup captain. "This induction is the greatest honor of my life." (ESPN.com)
