Practice Like The Pro’s During The Ryder Cup Matches

As you already heard, I’m headed to the Ryder Cup matches at Valhalla. While I’m there I’m gonna drop by and get a swing analysis and a quick golf lesson via the good people at American Express.

In case you’re going and haven’t heard, I’ve posted the entire news release below:
