“If you’re not just a little bit nervous before a match, you probably don’t have the expectations of yourself that you should have.” Hale Irwin, pro golfer

September sports weekends are traditionally reserved for football and pennant races. Although a beautiful time of year to play golf, most of your major tournaments have already crowned their winners. Not so in this strange year of 2020. The U.S. Open is being played this weekend and the Master’s will be held in November. The golfing calendar has the Open usually scheduled for Father’s Day in June.
