Earlier this afternoon, my cell phone buzzed. It was Tom Reiter, texting from Scotland.
He told me he had been on the Old Course at St. Andrews since 7 this morning. When he arrived, it was raining. Thus, the purple slicker.
“It makes you look regal,” I told him.
“It didn’t get me in the royal box,” he replied.
Oh, well. Reiter did send along four pictures of his day spent watching the second round of the Open Championship.
