2015 Year in Review: Part One

What a year.

When you look back on 2015, the amount of stories that emerged over the past twelve months is pretty crazy. We had brilliance on the course from players like Jordan Spieth and Jason Day, arguably the best major season in my lifetime, Phil Mickelson being the most Mickelson he’s ever been, and unfortunately, what appears like it could be the real beginning of the end for Tiger Woods even though I would never really count him out of anything.

Today, we’ll take a look at four golf legends playing on the Old Course as Seve Ballesteros teams with Lee Trevino to take on Nick Faldo and Isao Aoki in a different format: each player can only use one club per hole.
