Core Golf students get great lessons at Disney
ORLANDO, Florida (November 16, 2009)—Watching PGA Tour players compete is a treat, especially when their coach is your coach.
Students of the Core Golf Junior Academy were enthralled at the recent Children's Miracle Network Classic won by Stephen Ames who works with Sean Foley¸ PGA Tour Coach for the academy.
Visiting the fall PGA Tour event is an annual trip for academy students. Disney’s Magnolia and Palm courses are just a short drive from the academy in Orlando. And each March, students go to the Arnold Palmer Invitational at nearby Bay Hill.
The students visited the Children’s Miracle Network Classic during the first round, following Ames as well as Justin Rose and Greg Owen, who are also coached by Foley. They got a great lesson in shot-making, marveling as Rose fired 65, Owen 66, and Ames 69. Ames won in a playoff.
While eating dinner at Foley’s house on Saturday night, Ames forecast the score he’d need to shoot. "I wished for 64 and I got that 64," said Ames, who is a frequent visitor to the Core Golf Junior Academy.
For students of the Core Golf Junior Academy, this was one field trip they’ll never forget.
