A lifelong golfer with a passion for the game, Mike’s journey as a golf journalist began at the 1983 Open Championship at Royal Birkdale. Captivated by the drama of links golf at its finest, he attended all four days of the championship and penned his own account of the event—an experience that sparked a decades-long dedication to covering the sport he loves. Beyond the fairways, Mike brings his energy and leadership to the community as a high school girls’ basketball coach and a certified high school soccer official.
