Before He Was Scottie, He Was The Sixth Man
By Alan Shipnuck

During his senior season at Dallas’s Highland Park High, in 2014, Derek Cahn led every 4A school in Texas with 83 made 3-pointers. The day before Cahn left home to play for Texas A & M as a walk-on, he found himself in a game of H-O-R-S-E with the 6th man from his high school team, a rangy 6’3” forward who had led Highland Park in offensive rebounding. “We get to the end of the game, and I had made 19 straight 3-pointers,” says Cahn. “That’s not an exaggeration: 19 in a row. Unfortunately, so did Scottie. Then I missed and he made his 20th in a row to beat me. The guy is just a beast. I’m not sure he had ever shot the ball like that before, but he did it when he had to. He just refused to lose.” With a chuckle, Cahn adds, “I’m sure this is sounding familiar.”
Indeed it is. For all of Scottie Scheffler’s physical gifts as a golfer, his defining trait is his ruthless competitiveness.

Working Holiday
New from Skratch
Love Letter To: Robinswood Golf Club
By Luke Leesburg
3 mins read
Most of the time, our Working Holiday series is built around public golf, showing what’s out there, what’s accessible, what you and friends can go and do. But this one was a little different. When the chance came up to tag along on one of Mac’s work trips (again) and we saw the course—it wasn't a difficult decision for it to be an episode of Working Holiday. Robinswood Golf Club isn’t somewhere you just book a tee time. It makes the kind of “private golf” we’re used to feel public. And that feelings starts to develop before you even arrive on property.
Anson Point
First Out at South Carolina's Most Anticipated New Golf Course
Designed by the legendary duo of Bill Coore and Ben Crenshaw, this nature walk of a golf course sits between Hilton Head and Savannah. Think Pinehurst, but in the low country of South Carolina. We’re talking massive natural bunkers, wide fairways, holes that stretch into the Inner Coastal and sloping greens that require heaps of creativity. Forget everything you know about golf courses destroying nature. Anson Point actually helping it. Plus, they’re using conservation practices to help the local wildlife thrive. No real estate being built, just trees and protected land for miles. They monitor wildlife numbers constantly, plus, no chemical spaying or overseeding whatsoever! It’s a masterclass in modern design that proves golf and the environment can win together. We spent two full days on property at what is already be touted as one South Carolina’s best golf courses.
