Pinehurst, North Carolina

In September 2008, Dave and his team won the Utah Section of the PGA McGladrey Best Ball Championship. That qualified them to play in the National PGA McGladrey Tournament in Pinehurst, North Carolina. The tournament was held October 20-22, 2008. I got to go with Dave and it was a trip of a lifetime. We had so much fun! The weather was beautiful, the golf courses fantastic!

This is the hotel that Dave and I stayed in. As you can see it is called "The Holly Inn". It was the very first hotel in Pinehurst and was build in 1895. It was beautiful, very charming!





This is one of the most beautiful golf courses that I have ever seen.




This is the clubhouse at Pinehurst #2. Below is the famous logo "Putter Boy".



This bag piper was playing during the awards ceremony outside the Pinehurst Clubhouse.


Pictured here is Tim Freiss, Dave, statue of Payne Stewart, Craig Newbold (striking a pose), and Russ Newman.


Here is the team walking down the fairway of the famous #2 course at Pinehurst.


This is after their 3rd and final round. Their team took a very respectable 9th place. We were all very happy with this finish! They played great!
