PALM HARBOR, Fla. -- There was no text message from the man who helped convince him to take his golf talents to the PGA Tour, nor was there a voicemail. But there was still time.
The thought of Jim Herman eventually getting some sort of congratulatory message from President Donald Trump was not out of the question after he opened the Valspar Championship with a 9-under-par 62 on Thursday.
Since Trump moved into the White House, his ability to communicate with Herman has waned, although the two did play golf together a few days prior to Christmas at Trump's course in West Palm Beach, Florida.
