3. He's one of my favorite writers

His columns are scathing, honest and passionate.

His novels are brilliant, clever and they leap off the pages of Miami's newspapers.

His book about his life with golf, "The Downhill Lie," is hysterical and personal at the same time.

He's a wonderful writer. I'll miss his regular columns.

Thanks for the post, Sancho.
