PGA Tour : Charles Schwab Challenge Leaderboard Tee Times
Eric Cole shot a season best 63 to lead the Charles Schwab Challenge on a 90*f, blistering hot Texas day in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, that has firmed up Colonial GC after all the rain earlier in the week had softened it.
In his 120th PGA Tour event, during which he has lead after 54 holes 6 times since 2021 when he debuted, he continues to vie for his first win..
You could forgive the 37 year old type 1 diabetic, whose life is complicated by his daily battle to control his blood sugar, from finishing a the runner up.
His famous mother Laura Baugh, played from 1973 to 2001 and had 71 to 10 finishes, 10 times the runner up, but never the winner.
Bettmann
During that time, the stunningly beautiful woman who won the US Women's Amateur as a 16 year old in 1971, who's looks earned her the 1972 Golf Digest title " Most Beautiful Golfer" and garnered her contracts off the course with major sponsors like Ford and Colgate Palmolive, was married 4 times, twice to the handsome South African golfer Bobby Cole who sired her 7 children including Eric.
Her career is legendary, her beauty and battle with the bottle made world headlines as she ended up in the Betty Ford Clinic in 1996 to finally get control, writing a book "Out of the Rough" about it in 1999.
She went on to broadcasting with the Golf Channel and eventually in 2016 landed in Ponte Verdra as a golf instructor at Sawgrass CC.
She turns 71 today, as her son tries to do the one thing she never did.
