Two members from each of the LPGA Amateurs chapters around Southern Florida were invited to the beautiful Tiburon Golf Course in Naples, FL for a VIP behind the scenes experience at the CME Group Tour Tournament Championship on November 17th. Deb Miron and Brigite Babine from our Treasure Coast chapter joined members from seven other chapters for this unique experience. The All Access experience included meeting LPGA Tour Tournament Staff, Tournament Rules Officials and tours of the Media Room, Physiotherapy, and Club Repair trailers. The experience to observe many aspects of the multifaceted $80 billion golf industry was of particular interest to Brigite who is enrolled as a student in the Golf Management degree program at the Keiser Flagship School of Golf.
It was a beautiful day to watch golf and take in the total experience with the behind the scenes tour.
