Screen legend Elizabeth Taylor, who died in 2011, was a pioneering advocate for the LGBTQ Community long before it became fashionable to do so. As fate would have it, three of Taylor's dearest friends were closeted gay male Hollywood icons: Montgomery Clift, James Dean, and Rock Hudson. All three men died in tragic ways. Hudson died from AIDS in 1985, while Clift and Dean died in a very eerily similar manner: in car accidents.

Matt Gourlay, the superintendent at Hillcrest Country Club in Boise, Idaho, recently posted a photo on social media of his course’s range after it had played host to a Korn Ferry Tour tournament.
