This week, we’re going to tell you a bit of a story about Chris Naegel, a golfer from here in St. Louis that went from almost quitting playing professional golf, to 3 weeks later playing in the U.S. Open. You might recognize his name from the top of the leaderboard on the first day of the U.S. Open, but just week’s prior he was on the phone with his wife after a tournament where he missed the cut and decided he was quitting golf for good.
