The Prodigy is a multi-part story, based on events taking place in central Kansas earlier this spring. This is Part One. Part Two can be found here. Chris Pearson, one of the nation's best high school golfers, just 16 but already a two-time state champion committed to the Oklahoma State juggernaut, is part charming and part overwhelming. I met him at the modest ranch family home in St. Clere, Kansas, and when I noticed the Oklahoma State pennant nailed up on the living room wall, I joked that the Jayhawks must regret letting him get away. He looked at me like I'd insulted him.
This is fucking great.
HOOKED on this... when is Part 2 ?
Is this fiction or non-fiction?
You should have made it clear from the beginning that this is a work of fiction. Can you clarify what is real vs. embellished vs. completely made up?
OMG! When does part 2 drop???!
