DUBLIN, Ohio – On his first trip to Muirfield Village Golf Club for his maiden start in The Memorial in 2019, Joel Dahmen knew exactly what he had to do first.
It wasn’t to hit golf balls or check out the course. Wasn’t to go search for host Jack Nicklaus to shake his hand. Wasn’t to go and putt. Wasn’t even to unpack.
Instead, the first thing Dahmen did when he got on property – well, the first thing he did after he parked his car – was to head to a special bar in the clubhouse.
