Jeffrey Thoreson
About The Author
Jeff Thoreson is a publisher, editor, and writer who has written for numerous newspapers and magazines in his 40-year career. He was the founding editor of The Washington Golf Monthly and GolfStyles magazines and edited those publications for 25 years.
His golf journey began by hitting Wiffle balls with his father’s clubs in the backyard of his childhood home. He began playing seriously after graduating from college, and progressed from not being able to break 100 to eventually trying to qualify for the U.S. Amateur. He has played in one professional tournament with a crash-and-burn result.
Thoreson holds a BA in journalism from the University of Maryland and lives in Frederick, Maryland. He has traveled to play the world’s great courses but finds particular pleasure in discovering lesser-known gems in far-away lands. He still plays to a 4 handicap.
