Kelly, a stalwart on PGA TOUR Champions dove into what has made him a better golfer at 58, how his competitive streak took shape, how equipment has brought the athlete into golf, how amazing Bernhard Langer still is and he talked about his partnership with Cologuard and how important the work they are doing to help early screening for colon cancer.
