ALTON - PGA golfer Brian Cooper was on Riverbender.com's 'Our Daily Show!' hosted by CJ Nasello last week to talk about his personal golf journey and his plans for the 2023 season. While on the show, Cooper discussed how he overcame a stint of depression after having shoulder surgery, sidelining him from the sport.
