  • Te Western Amateur Championship
    Te Western Amateur Championship Records & Statistics Guide 1899-2020 for te 119t Westrn Amatur, July 26-31, 2021 Glen View Club Golf, Il. 18t editon compiled by Tim Cronin A Guide to The Guide –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Welcome to the 119th Western Amateur Championship, and the 18th edition of The Western Amateur Records & Statistics Guide, as the championship returns to the Glen View Club for the first time since the 1899 inaugural. Since that first playing, the Western Amateur has provided some of the best competition in golf, amateur or professional. This record book allows reporters covering the Western Am the ability to easily compare current achievements to those of the past. It draws on research conducted by delving into old newspaper files, and by going through the Western Golf Association’s own Western Amateur files, which date to 1949. A few years ago, a major expansion of the Guide presented complete year-by-year records and a player register for 1899 through 1955, the pre-Sweet Sixteen era, for the first time. Details on some courses and field sizes from various years remain to be found, but no other amateur championship has such an in-depth resource. Remaining holes in the listings will continue to be filled in for future editions. The section on records has been revised, and begins on page 8. This includes overall records, including a summary on how the medalist fared, and more records covering the Sweet Sixteen years. The 209-page Guide is in two sections. Part 1 includes a year-by-year summary chart, records, a special chart detailing the 37 players who have played in the Sweet Sixteen in the 63 years since its adoption in 1956 and have won a professional major championship, and a comprehensive report on the Sweet Sixteen era through both year-by-year results and a player register.

  • 1997 TEACHER of the YEAR This Award Bestows Special Recognition
    1997 TEACHER OF THE YEAR This award bestows special recognition on a PGA Member who has performed outstanding service as a golf instructor along with overall distinguished performance as a golf professional. ROD THOMPSON - Kenwood Golf and Country Club For his dedication to teaching and his commitment to raising the level of enjoyment of the game of golf for all ages and experience levels, Rod Thompson is this year's Teacher of the Year. Born in Pontiac, Michigan in 1946, Rod's golf experience began at an early age. Rod's father introduced him to the game when he was just eight years old. The Thompson's lived across the street from a country club where young Rod spent his evenings watching the club's head professional practice, and afterward shagging balls for him. At 11 years old Rod got his first golf-related job as a caddie at Orchard Lake CC. When he wasn't working, Rod would play golf from dawn till dark. When he was 13 years old and working as a range attendant at Pine Lake CC, he had the opportunity to watch the head professional, Elmer Prieskorn, teach hundreds of lessons to LPGA Hall of Famers Sandra Post, Marilyn Smith and Sandra Palmer. Throughout his teen years and right up to the age of 18 when he turned professional, Rod learned many aspects of the golf business by working in such jobs as range attendant, bag boy, assistant to the caddie master and shop assistant. Rod was named Outstanding Junior and High School Player as an amateur.
