He holds the course record (?52? shots) at Raleigh’s exclusive Carolina Country Club, yet Simpson seems to be the type person that the golf world feels comfortable rallying behind. Tiger Woods; he is not. Check out these nice articles which undoubtedly are making his family proud this Monday morning. Congratulations, Webb!
