"He's teaching me about the grain and how it works. I mean, I kind of knew common sense about the grain, but I think now that I'm in the 2.8 range, knowing the grain will probably get me down to - my goal is to get to scratch."
"Eight days a week. I drop the kids off at school and go to the golf course, and then, I come home at some point."
"I'm a member at Lakeside, so I'm there pretty much eight days a week."
Mookie Betts plays golf at a 2.8 handicap and practices frequently, often joking that he goes 'eight days a week' to the course after dropping off his children. The 33-year-old four-time World Series champion and eight-time All-Star prefers a middle, short, and straight approach with a left draw. He showcased his skill at the WM Phoenix Open's 16th hole, nearly recording a birdie. Betts takes lessons from PGA Tour winner Maverick McNealy, who taught him about grain reading; Betts hopes that grain knowledge will lower his handicap to scratch. Betts also experienced a down year at the plate with a .258 average and .406 slugging.
