GOLF SEEMED OTHER WORLDLY TO ME this past weekend, with a half foot of snow on the ground and wind chills at minus 10, such a contrast to the tropical images from Maui. I occasionally turned the channel to Golf Channel and NBC for the telecast of the SBS Tournament of Champions. I wished I was there.
The Plantation Course at Kapalua is familiar to me. I played it twice in one day in the 1990s. It's sort of odd to watch guys in shirt sleeves play in that setting when I'm shivering in the Mid-Atlantic, but good for them, right?
