“Over the top” is not a recommended move in the golf swing. But it can pay off nicely in golf design. At Big Cedar Lodge, his wilderness resort in the Missouri Ozarks, Bass Pro Shops founder Johnny Morris has never shied away from bold course features.

The start of Masters week seemed like a good time to revisit the story of the unlikely rise--and tragic fall--of the amateur golfer Jeff Thomas, who competed at Augusta in '94 and died 10 years later in a tumbledown motel near the club where he caddied. https://t.co/5BBG8mtjee
