Geoff Calkins
Geoff Calkins has been chronicling Memphis and Memphis sports for more than two decades. He is host of "The Geoff Calkins Show" from 9-11 a.m. M-F on 92.9 FM. Calkins has been named the best sports columnist in the country five times by the Associated Press sports editors, but still figures his best columns are about the people who make Memphis what it is.
Fans won't be allowed at the World Golf Championships-FedEx St. Jude Invitational this year. But for the very best of reasons, Jack Sammons, the chair of the tournament, would still welcome Tiger Woods.
