What's former Utah Jazz player Deron Williams up to this summer? Living near Park City and playing tournament golf

PROVO — You’d think Deron Williams would be the biggest celebrity golfer at Glenwild Golf Club near Park City where he has been a member for several years. Except there’s also a guy named Michael Jordan, who also occasionally roams the fairways of Glenwild during the summer.

The two athletes play sometimes and they take turns beating each other.

“Can I beat him? Yeah, and he can beat me,” says Williams of Jordan, who has a place at Glenwild.

The former Jazz star, who isn’t officially retired from professional basketball, spends many of his summer days out on the golf course now, whether it is with someone like Jordan or friends he’s made in Utah such as Park City professional Steele DeWald.
