Author and avid golfer Jared Tendler is out with a new book: "Everyday Golf Psychology." The basics of the mental game are often misunderstood, he says, and there loads of better ways amateur golfers should approach the game.

Tom Hsieh, a lifelong San Franciscan, couldn't imagine a world without Gleaneagles. So when it was near complete closure, he created a plan to save the 9-hole muni. Two decades later, it's one of the no-longer best kept secrets in Bay Area golf. In this interview with Josh Sens, Tom discusses the vast, quality muni golf courses in the region, and how absurdly great they could be if they got a little more maintenance and inv...
