PGA champions Fred Funk and Tim Petrovic will offer life-long lessons to children this morning in Birmingham, part of Alabama Power’s Junior Clinic in advance of this week’s Regions Tradition.
More than 300 third through fifth graders from local schools will take part in the clinic at Greystone Golf & Country Club, which will focus on teaching students about life lessons that come with the game of golf.
During the clinic, students will learn what it means to be a professional golfer and how the PGA champions worked their way to the top through hard work, focus and determination. Funk and Petrovic will share stories about their careers while incorporating the importance of sportsmanship, honesty and friendship.
The Regions Tradition will take place Wednesday through Sunday. Tickets start at only $20, and children 18 and younger are admitted free with a ticketed adult.
All the stars of the PGA TOUR Champions will compete in this major championship, including John Daly, Vijay Singh, Steve Stricker, Tom Lehman and defending champion Bernhard Langer.
