Romo shares his five favorite golf courses

By Charean Williams

Tony Romo qualified for the U.S. Open sectional qualifier in June. He finished second in the American Century Championship. Romo could be as good at golf as he is as the quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys if he played the game all the time. He's still good, playing only in his spare time. Romo said he has shot 65 a number of times, and a 66 in his best score ever in tournament play. Here are Romo's five favorite golf courses:

1Augusta National Golf Club, Augusta, Ga.: "The tradition, and it's beautiful."

2Racine Country Club, Racine, Wis.: "It's back home. The greens are probably the best greens I've ever played on consistently. And it makes it, because I grew up there."

3Dallas National Golf Club, Dallas: "I really like it. I think Dallas National is right up there. I really enjoy that course."

4Preston Trail Golf Club, Dallas: "It's right up there. Pure, pristine. Since they redid it, it's really special, too."

5(tie). The Club at Carlton Woods, The Woodlands: "It's beautiful. The greens were lightning quick.
