Michigan State's Tom Izzo hard on his golf game, too: 'I didn't maim anybody'

Michigan State basketball coach Tom Izzo was happy he 'didn't maim anybody' Tuesday while golfing in the Area 313 Challenge at Detroit Golf Club.

Tom Izzo’s nerves fluttered as he approached the tee.

Bubba Watson was counting on him to beat Rickie Fowler and Dustin Johnson. Jerome Bettis and Kid Rock watched from the side.

It was the gallery that surrounded the 14th fairway Tuesday at Detroit Golf Club, though, that brought out the most jitters.

“I’m glad I just didn’t maim anybody,” Izzo joked after completing the three-hole Area 313 Challenge.
