MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Francisco Soto had the Chilean flag around his neck in the misting rain, toting it from hole-to-hole at TPC Southwind wherever Joaquin Niemann went, hoping his favorite golfer might notice him.
“He’s a huge fan,” Franciso Soto, Jr. said trailing from behind, elongating the word “huge” in a way only a son indulging a father’s obsession can. “He never misses the tournaments he plays. He’s always watching.”
