COMMERCE BANK CHAMPIONSHIP
You probably won’t ever catch a pass from Eli Manning, but how’d you like to read a putt with two time Masters champ Ben Crenshaw?
You aren’t likely to ever turn a double play with Derek Jeter, but what if somebody offered you the opportunity to team up with back to back US Open champion Curtis Strange?
You’ll definitely never dunk on Lebron James, but you most definitely can compare approach shots with British Open and PGA champion Nick Price.
Don’t just watch the Pro's play...Play with them!!
