Andrew Stilwell

Perhaps the world's "worst" Pinehurst resident, I spend more time ensuring that other people are out playing golf than actually playing myself. I carded my first (and only) eagle (a 40-yard hole out from the bunker to a wet green on the third hole of Midland Country Club in Pinehurst) in March of 2014, and considered giving up the game completely, because at that point, I felt my golf career had peaked. While my speed of a round of golf is more suited to Pinehurst Resort's nine-hole short course, The Cradle, or the nearby Longleaf Golf & Family Club's six- holer, Bottlebrush, you're more likely to find me outside the ropes, providing event operations support for the U.S. Kids Golf World Championships and other smaller events around the Pinehurst and Southern Pines area or writing about the goings-on of golf in North Carolina.
