I have worked in the golf journalism business for the last 12 years. My duties have entailed: covering live tournaments from on site; writing news stories, features, columns and multi-part special projects; editing content for my company's Web site, as well as organizing the material appropriately on the home page. Currently I am a Content Manager/Senior writer for GolfChannel.com. I oversee a small staff of employees and freelance writers, making sure our site is entertaining, up to date, and factually and grammatically correct. I also continue to write features and commentary items.
