Sam Reeves is 90 years old. He and Fred Couples have been friends for nearly 40 years. Sam hosts Freddie every time he plays a tournament at Pebble Beach. They reunited this week at the Champions Tour’s PURE Insurance Championship.

This is a great story
God bless Sam Reeves with 90 more years. He moves like a someone half his age. Some of the older folks I’ve played with always tell me that walking the courses really helps you stay fit with age and so i’ve done that ever since.
Not quite as sharp as he used to be on the radio, but still swinging great.
And you have a 90yo wearing a hoodie, at Pebble Beach. Blasphemy.
Thanks for posting this. Freddie is my favourite golfer of all time and Sam has always been such a class act. Love to see them out enjoying a round together.
“I was aiming for it. Why wouldn’t it go there?”
Using that tomorrow. Well, hopefully anyway.
Yeah, I want Sam’s sweater for Fall season. Sad that I’m now looking to 90 year-olds for fashion advice, but this is where I am now.
I had the pleasure of meeting Sam a few years back, he has the coolest setup ever. He can hit golf balls from his back yard out towards one of the holes at cypress point, I got to hit a few myself. Beautiful view from a hill looking out at the Pacific.
I just started playing 3 months ago at 38.
This was great to watch.
Sam must be Pete Carroll’s dad
This man has more energy at 90 than many people 10-15 years his junior. What I wouldn’t give to be like this at 90 years old, even without the golfing ability (but I’d take that too)
That’s probably the best description of golf and why it’s so special to all of us I’ve ever heard. What a guy
