Is there a topic Harry Higgs is afraid of? If so, we’ve yet to uncover it.
While chatting with Higgs, who lost his PGA Tour card last year but has played in a number of events already during the season on sponsor exemptions, we pitched the idea of him taking over a new TV station devoted solely to golf. All Harry, all the time. He wasn’t averse to the concept.
Higgs will appear on Golf Channel during the second Tito’s Shorties Classic at Butler Pitch and Putt in downtown Austin, Texas, on Jan. 11. Close buddy Keith Mitchell was also part of the fun, along with Joel Dahmen and Beau Hossler.
And while the former TCU star and current Dallas-area resident was happy with the content the hit-and-giggle provided, he’s got grander plans for the game’s broadcast side, and some worries that understandably are bubbling as the game’s most marketable personality (Tiger Woods) continues to drift off slowly into the sunset.
