What better way to take a Sunday afternoon stroll with your golf clubs, your caddy, and a few thousand new friends, than Pebble Beach? Okay, so it was not just any Sunday afternoon stroll; it was the final group of the final round of the U.S. Open. A golf tournament no European had won since 1970. Graeme McDowell changed all of that on Sunday. You would think the way he navigated those cliffs in the...
