\nMedill Reports<\/em><\/p>\n

Some of golf\u2019s finest players handle the pressure in different ways when the camera isn\u2019t pointed their way. It is these tiny, quiet, and almost personal moments that help give the sport its elegance.<\/p>\n

Medill Reports had boots on the ground to capture some scenes you may not have caught while watching the Genesis Invitational on television. From logging precious time on the driving range to remembering the basketball legend Kobe Bryant in their own way,\u00a0 the best on the PGA are a lot more than birdie making machines.<\/p>\n

With that, the epic battle between the tiger and the Riviera Country Club continues with the course besting the player for the twelfth time without a win.
