To put it bluntly, he’s at a big advantage over the rest of the guys on the Champions Tour. He still hits bombs and with his PGA TOUR history, he’s beat all these guys before.

At the time of this article, Phil is leading the field by 1. My guess is he will get himself a nice cup of coffee and head out this afternoon looking to show the veterans that the rookie can play.

Ed DiTusa

Ed started playing golf when he was 18. It started out as a hobby and something he liked to do but by 2014 it had turned into a full blown obsession. Since then Ed has committed himself to improving and learning more about the game. He doesn’t work in the golf industry, he’s not a teaching pro, he’s a guy who just loves the game and enjoys sharing his thoughts with others who share the same passion.
