Call it another successful event for the Korn Ferry Tour’s Price Cutter Charity Championship presented by Dr Pepper.
That was the so-called postgame theme following the annual Pitch, Chip & Putt Championship presented by the Missouri Golf Association. Nearly 50 kids turned out for a competition whose winners – the top three in three categories – advanced Monday at the Oscar Blom Golf Course at the Betty Allison’s Family Events Center in Springfield.
“This was fun. We had a great turnout,” said Derek Wilson, Director of Facilities of the Missouri Sports Hall of Fame, which manages the PCCC. “And it was great to grow the game.”
