Abstract

ON WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AT THE PLAYERS, in a distant corner of TPC Sawgrass, the ritual departure ofthe Tour trucks begins. "You can teach a club fitter to drive a truck but I don't think you can teach a truck driver to build golf clubs", Napier, 39, says of his unusual skill set. As the Callaway truck (nicknamed Bertha, inevitably) rolls on, a couple of tournament volunteers in a golf cart lock eyes with Napier and give a pumping motion with their hands. Like Napier, Simon Wood spends more time in the truck building clubs; a displaced Brit, Woody has become so Americanized he drives a Corvette and counts Coors Light as his favorite beer.
