Ray Floyd splits focus between golf and Cubs loyalty
Masters champion Ray Floyd, age 39, starts Augusta week by checking baseball box scores, a Cubs booster with ties to the Emil Verban Memorial Society. He recalls his Army brat upbringing in North Carolina, chose golf over baseball after winning the 1960 National Jaycees title, and has since captured 15 tour events including the 1969 PGA, 1976 Masters, and the 1981 Tournament Players Championship.
