Writers appear from Washington, New York and Los Angeles. Every golf magazine and digest takes notes. All the big-time TV and radio outlets grind away. The event is sold out. Recall of media fervor from the Masters was prompted by the unparalleled prelude to next week's GTE Byron Nelson Classic at Los Colinas.
Major tournaments are world-wide special every year.
Most regular stops on the PGA Tour transfix the locals as does an annual appearance of the Globetrotters. Nationally and internationally, there was lack of huge tremor. The earth didn't move around the globe. The Nelson often falls into the same category. The thought is not meant unkindly, especially toward thousands of Salemanship Club volunteers who donate time and energy to the project.
