Fuzzy's professional golf career produced ten PGA TOUR victories, including the 1979 Masters and the 1984 U.S. Open, and thousands of loyal fans who enjoy his fun approach to the game and his chatter with the gallery as he stalks the fairways looking for birdies. Fuzzy's Masters victory remains the only win posted by a Masters rookie, and at the 1984 U.S. Open he jokingly waved his white towel in mock surrender to Greg Norman on the final hole on Sunday after Norman sank a monster putt for par to tie him after 72 holes. Fuzzy went on to win the next day in an 18 hole playoff in record fashion.
Since joining The Champions Tour Fuzzy has notched another major, the 2002 Senior PGA Championship. He'll be in town this week to compete in the CE Senior Player's Championship at Westchester Country Club.
Fuzzy says he spent nearly four years creating a vodka that he felt proud to put his name on. It's distilled five times from corn and grains, then slowly filtered ten times through charcoal. The product was awarded a gold medal and a 94 rating from the Beverage Testing Institute.
While you're swapping golf tales with Fuzzy, don't forget to try out the excellent pub fare at Emma's. I'd have to rank the burger as one of the best anyplace and the fried chicken is almost as good as my Mom's!
In addition to writing about golf, Dave Donelson distills the experiences of hundreds of entrepreneurs into practical advice for small business owners and managers in the Dynamic Manager's Guides, a series of how-to books about marketing and advertising, sales techniques, hiring, firing, and motivating personnel, financial management, and business strategy.
