If there is a nerve center for golf in the United States, it's Orlando. Which is nice, since Elling, who lives in O-town, knows how to hit a nerve.

After covering a variety of sports, from the NFL to North Carolina basketball to Florida State football -- back when the Seminoles and Tar Heels were actually winning national titles -- he developed a low tolerance for half-truths, propaganda and outright bull.

Which made for an interesting transition into golf, where spin control isn't just something related to hitting a pitching wedge. No sports body is more PR-conscious than the PGA Tour, which tends to distribute more KoolAid than anybody outside of Jonestown.

Elling is here to produce the unfettered truth and offer unvarnished opinion. Or, failing that, some saucy tidbits about John Daly's latest walk on the wild side. Because, after all, golf is boring enough without us contributing to the dearth of color.

Elling, who worked for daily newspapers such as the Los Angeles Times and Orlando Sentinel before moving to CBSSports.com in mid-2007, is on the board of directors of the Golf Writers Association of America and has written for numerous national publications, such as GolfWorld and Golf Digest.

So, add the CBSSports.com golf homepage to your computer address book and get ready for fare you won't read anywhere else on the Web. As Daly might say, Grip It and Click It.
