RICK
REILLY KNOWN FOR HIS FUNNY STORIES ABOUT THE
GAME OF GOLF
SAN DIEGO, CA (June
10, 2003) — Sports Illustrated Senior
Writer Rick Reilly brings his rants, raves and
tales of misadventures about the game of golf
to the Internet Radio Show “Golfing Around
the World Today” Monday, June 16, 2003,
from 8 – 9 PM (EDT), 5 – 6 PM (PDT),
on www.wsRadio.com with hosts Charlie Jones,
longtime sports announcer and best-selling author
of “Be the Ball” and “What
Makes Winners Win,” Tom Addis, former
PGA President and PGA Golf Professional of the
Year, and Jack Woods, nationally known radio
personality and golf fanatic.
Count on Rick Reilly
to be at his funniest and most entertaining
as he describes what it’s like to caddy
for some of golf’s most illustrious players
including Jack Nicklaus and David Duval–
especially since he had never caddied before!
Rick describes his experiences in detail in
his newest book “Who’s Your Caddy?”
which along with his other best selling books
“The Life of Reilly”, the classic
golf novel “Missing Links” and his
weekly back page column in Sports Illustrated
(the first such signed weekly opinion column
in the magazine's history) shows why he is the
funniest and most popular sports writer in America.
Rick is in his 19th year of writing for Sports
Illustrated and has been voted National Sportswriter
of the Year eight times.
