Patrick Jones, Senior Writer
Patrick Jones was the senior producer for ESPN's "Lower Your Score with Tom Kite" CD-ROM instructional golf training series. He spent six years as a full-time sports writer and was awarded first-place honors for column writing from both the Florida and Texas sports writers associations.
Jones has written columns and features and covered PGA and LPGA events for the GolfWeb, served as editor of NBC Sports' golf.com and is a regular contributor to Triangle Golf Today and Triad Golf Today.
His golf highlight was to connect on his one swing with Kite's Hogan 7-iron -- "I swear I don't know who handed me his club" -- while Kite and sports psychologist Bob Rotella looked on. Rotella told the '92 U.S. Open champion that I "pured it," Jones says.
Jones lives in Raleigh, N.C., with his wife Dee, infant son Justin and 175 pounds worth of three spoiled dogs. He works in corporate communications for a Fortune 250 company responsible for keeping the lights on.
