A spectacular sunrise over the grandpappy of the modern era of golf course architecture: the Sand Hills Golf Club. This piece of perfection by Bill Coore & Ben Crenshaw proved the concept that if the golf is good enough, there’s no limit to the length golfers will travel for it. Without Sand Hills, there’s no Bandon Dunes, no Sand Valley and no Streamsong, among many others. The most important golf course built in America in the last 100 years.

There's no such thing as traveling in the NBA anymore. Jalen Green took SIX steps in a 1-point game with 25 seconds left... no call 😭

Kelvin Sampson shares what separates good programs from great ones. It comes down to 3 things. "The best teams come from the coaching staffs that are the best demanders. There are certain non-negotiables." "We're not going to sit down and talk about this...This is the way it's done and we expect this effort." No debate. No negotiation. Just the standard. "And those eventually will be called standards. So - standards, accountability, and then we've raised our expectations." "Here's our expectations, and our expectation is probably a little bit higher than most people's. We don't talk about them." The standard is how you operate every day. "We practiced this morning at 6:00. Probably our best practice in the last 6 or 7 days. But that's because our standards are raising. Our kids are holding each other accountable now." Then he said the line that defines a great program: "That's when you know you've got a great program." When the players hold each other accountable not just the coaches. That's when you've built something real. The formula is: 1. Standards 2. Accountability 3. Raised Expectations. A great team isn't made of individuals seeking personal glory - it's made of people who hold each other accountable and work towards a common goal (🎥 March Madness)
