I've played golf for as long as I can remember. I've been lucky enough to travel outside of the US, play with some of the best players in the country and make amazing friends along the way. However, I am not good enough to play in Copa de las Americas. This USGA-run tournament is a stroke play event where four players (2 men and 2 women) are selected, respectively, from Canada, North and South America and the Caribbean. Although I wasn't selected, I thankfully had my "in" to sit at the cool kids table because of Les Brown, my favorite USGA referee. Note: He will be so embarrassed from this little shoutout. I was his date for the night, and soaked up all of the amazing food and company that Doral Country Club & Resort had to offer.

| The menu for the night. |
 |
| Mushroom strudel in a delicious tomato broth. |
 |
| Wedge salad with tomatoes, bleu cheese, and balsamic drizzle. |
 |
| Prime beef tenderloin with what I like to call "potatoes three ways": Pureed potatoes in a potato cup with a potato crisp on top. |
 |
| The highlight of the night? I got to meet Donald Trump...and to answer the question you're all thinking-His hair is better than it looks on TV. |
