Last month, my teammates and I had the opportunity to attend
the annual Men’s Club dinner at the Stanford Faculty Club. The official speaker
for the evening was Sandy Tatum (Stanford Hall of Famer), and it was a true privilege to hear Mr. Tatum
detail many of his wonderful experiences with the game of golf.
Mr. Tatum epitomizes the tradition of Stanford Golf. NCAA
Champion, Rhodes Scholar, and USGA President are just a few of his numerous
accomplishments. Most inspiring though, are his tremendous efforts in the city
of San Francisco and with the First Tee Organization to improve the lives of
others through the game of golf. His
achievements are nothing short of remarkable.
I had the honor to play golf with Mr. Tatum at Stanford last
spring. I’ll always remember the 220-yard 3-wood that he hit onto the 18th
green.
Opportunities like these make the Stanford Golf experience
so unique. It is rare in college golf to find such a strong alumni community,
and our yearly invitation to the Men’s Club dinner is just another example of
the incredible support our team receives.
These alumni interactions ensure that Stanford Golf continues the
tradition of excellence.
We’re primed to have an outstanding season this spring.
