Golf’s stars take part in unique event at Zurich Classic

Ever wondered how well the biggest names in golf would fare if they were forced to give up their state-of-the-art clubs in the place of those more familiar to the likes of Bobby Jones and Sam Snead? If you answered ‘yes’, it seems you’re not the only one.
