We wanted to give a special shoutout to Chris Tallman for finishing T34 last week at the PGA Professional Championship!

Terry Slater also made the first cut. Billy Street and CJ Konkowski came up a little short, but stayed the week and represented the section well in their support of Tallman throughout his tournament run!!

Hear from Tallman on his experience in the PGA Professional Championship this Friday on our podcast on Apple Podcasts, Bunker Banter!

These three men are very well deserving of being recognized. Their lives and careers have reflected true dedication to the game of golf, PGA Membership and greatly impacting the lives of so many!

Congratulations to all!
