Standing in the presence of the great Byron Nelson!
And I found it! How could I not staying at the Four Seasons Resort & Club Dallas in a villa overlooking the 18th green of the TPC Four Seasons Resort/Las Colinas Course for three nights? The HP Byron Nelson Championship has been in existence since 1944 when Byron Nelson won the inaugural event. Since 1983, when Ben Crenshaw won, it has been played on the TPC Las Colinas Course. This is the heart of Byron Nelson country and his heart and spirit permeated my visit!
The above article captures all aspects of my visit. After a week on the road visiting Atlanta, St. Louis and Fort Smith the three-day respite was welcomed and needed. This was the first day in the ‘Texas Triangle’ of Dallas, San Antonio and Houston. I had no plans for Mexico and Central America other than crossing the border at Nuevo León.
My time in Texas was a key to formulating the exact route of the ‘Journey to Olympic Golf’ and the pursuit of the ‘Olympic Spirit of Golf.’ Stay tuned for all the details in the days ahead…
I am looking for 100 new friends in the next 100 days to make a $100 donation (or any amount that you are able to make) to The First Tee. Each day I will be reliving the original “Journey to Olympic Golf” and hope to find a new friend in golf. Is that you? Please join me in giving back to the game we all love.
