What about an 18-Mile Golf Course Across Detroit?




Published under Short & Weird


Article by Roberto Fuzzy
Staff writer
Man in his best years (you know, for men the best years last and last and last). Writer, beer drinker, interested in anything cool and nothing whatsoever.
Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Charlie LeDuff took on the assignment of a single hole 18-mile course through the city of Detroit.

"It's 100 degrees, I'm wearing black–and I can't golf. But I'm committed because they're talking of reinventing this city." said LeDuff, whose bold experience was obviously a stunt to get some attention where it's needed so badly.

It took him 2,525 strokes to cover the 18-mile one hole golf course.

"I’m thinking back to what I saw behind me, a city, its people, holding on, waiting for a savior… I wonder if the people know that the savior might be found within themselves," he adds as a conclusion.
