1.)  Brief Bio on Watson.

At the Tom Watson Fall Classic golf tournament at The Greenbrier resort, Sandy had the opportunity to interview the legendary golfer and "emeritus" Greenbrier golf professional, Tom Watson.

For more than two centuries, the AAA Five Diamond Award-winning Greenbrier resort in White Sulpher Springs, WV, has hosted presidents, celebrities and guests from around the world.   With three 18-hole championship golf courses ; The Old White ; The Greenbrier and The Meadows - amateurs and pros alike thrive on the combination of challenge and beauty.

2.)  Q & A

Q - What keeps you coming back to the Greenbrier year after year?
A - I began hosting annual events for my corporate sponsors at The Greenbrier in 1980.  The elegant surroundings, outstanding dining and excellent on-site activities have always exceeded our expectations.  It is a perfect resort destination and one that everyone looks forward to returning to.

Q - Other than The Greenbrier, what are some of your other favorite resorts?
A - I really like the Four Seasons resorts in Hawaii ; The Sanctuary in Hilton Head and the Imperial Palace in Tokyo.

Q- Do you always play golf when you're on vacation?
A - Not always.  Just this morning I participated in the Falconry program here - and just loved it!

Q - Is there anyplace you haven't visited that you would like to vacation at?
A - Yes, I really want to explore Banff, Vancouver, and Maine.

Q - I read an article recently in the Wall Street Journal about the mental and physical exhaustion for pro-golfers.  Jim Furyk quoted that "the better you play, the harder it is to make all the events"...do you agree?
A - Yes.  the constant travel can be very difficult.  Early on I played in 24-26 events every year - now I'm playing 18-20.  You miss being home.  You see and stay at some great hotels and eat at some excellent restaurants - but because you're always moving and your mind is on your game, you never really see or enjoy where you're at while on tour.

Q - Other than golf, what are some other things you enjoy doing while on vacation or during down-time?
A - I've become very fond of hunting, particularly bow-hunting.

Q. - Where are you off to next?
A  - I'm going Elk hunting in Colorado.

Q - Is there any specific travel recommendation you have for me that I should experience?
A - Absolutely, you need to check out the "Architect Canal tour in Chicago"...and I'm serious about this.

Q - And last but not least - who , in your opinion is the greatest golfer of all time...and the greatest golfer playing today.
A - Tiger...and Tiger.
