When Roy Williams ventures to Durham, N.C., it is usually for two things – a game against heated rival Duke University at Cameron Indoor Stadium or dinner at Bullock's Bar-B-Cue. But on Thursday night, the University of North Carolina hall-of-fame men's basketball coach came to "enemy" territory as the guest speaker for the 65th U.S. Senior Amateur Championship players' reception at the Washington Duke Inn & Golf Club.
If there's anything three-time national champion Williams loves more than coaching basketball, it's golf.
"The golf course is the only place I can go where I can get away from which phone call I need to be making," said Williams, 69.
