Lou Holtz: Football Legend with Golf Passion

Lou Holtz, best known for his football coaching career at schools like Notre Dame and South Carolina, maintained a deep passion for golf throughout his life. The 89-year-old was a single-digit handicapper who hosted the SiriusXM show 'Holtz in One' and won the member-member tournament at Augusta National in 2005, which he called his greatest accomplishment.

His golf journey began in 1962 when William & Mary made him golf coach to boost his salary by $300, despite Holtz admitting he 'didn't even know how to keep score.' Holtz developed friendships with several players, including Lee Trevino, and had a memorable story about being replaced on the cover of Sports Illustrated by Jack Nicklaus after his historic 1986 Masters victory.
