Ben plans another busy playing schedule in 2010. While he will miss a couple of spring tournaments so that he can be present for events surrounding daughter Claire's senior year at Austin High, he will play around 18 dates this year. Ben and playing partner Fuzzy Zoeller barely failed to defend their Senior Skins Game Championship in Hawaii last month. After failing to win a skin on day one, Ben and Fuzzy won $230,000 on the back nine and Ben just missed a birdie putt on #18 to change the outcome. Ben and his architecture partner Bill Coore will be busy in 2010. They have just completed work on two projects: The Lost Farm in Tasmania, which will open later this year and The Dormie Club in Pinehurst, North Carolina which should open in the late summer. Meanwhile they have started work on a renovation project at Pinehurst #2, which will host the 2014 men's U.S. Open and women's U.S. Open in back-to-back weeks.
The Carl Jackson Story: Carl Carl Jackson, who has caddied for Ben Crenshaw at Augusta for more than 30 years, was inducted into the Arkansas Golf Hall of Fame on October 29th. Jackson began caddying at the Augusta Country Club at age 11, and by age 13 had moved to Augusta National. In 1961 he went to work for Jackson Stephens in Little Rock, but continued to caddy in the Masters. In 2008, he caddied in his 47th Masters. Jackson currently is in charge of the caddy program at the Alotian Club in Little Rock. Jackson, who never went beyond high school himself, has six children, five of whom have graduated from college. His sixth child, daughter Carlessa will enter college next fall. Carl made a stirring acceptance speech at his induction and stories from his life brought tears and cheers from the audience.
