The Bizarre Case of the Michael Sims
The always observant TXQ sent me an e-mail last night while I was out at happy hour asking me about a Nationwide Tour player named Michael Sims. He wanted to know if the PGA Tour's website had made a terrible mistake. It's Michael Sim, right? The Australian dude. And, besides, he's on the PGA...
