This is happening in just a couple weeks.
Attending the Greenbrier Classic PGA Tournament has become an annual tradition for me and my husband.
He volunteers.
I walk the course, snap pictures, and if the autograph gods are smiling, score him a signature or two.

It is one of the last professional sporting events where you can be so close to the 'action' without spending major bucks. The local tournament has afforded us the opportunity to see a few big name golfers and a good many "they might not be Tiger Woods, but they ARE playing golf for a living" players. Even more, the opportunity to see up and coming stars, like this nice young man who my husband pointed out several years back and said "he is the one to watch". Several tournament wins and a green jacket later - I'd say my husband was spot on.
If you are ever in a position where you can take in at least one day of seeing a professional golf tournament (men or womens) - do it. You will never look at this sport the same way again.
And how many other sporting events can you be a spectator
and also get in your exercise/step quota for the day?
