We’ve all been in awe as we watch the pros hit incredible shots during live media coverage of tournaments, but watching a PGA Tour event in-person is another experience. Last weekend, I got to see 10 members of the U.S. Ryder Cup team compete on the final day at the Procore Championship in Napa Valley, California, and not only was there some really, really good golf, but there was a lot I learned from observing the players in-person that I’ll bring back to my own golf game.
This was my first time attending a PGA event, and it happened to be only an hour and a half from my house. I’ve watched a decent amount of professional golf on TV over the past year, becoming familiar with many players, but it was really special to see them up close in action – especially knowing they came to this tournament for team building before next week’s Ryder Cup.
