And in his Don Quixote-like impossible dream, King defeats Cren- shaw and walks away with 100 grand and a glimmering glass trophy after sinking a 30-foot putt on the final hole of the match. Welcome . not to King's golf fan- tasies ... but to the People vs. The Pros, America's "ultimate pro-am champi- onship," as it is billed. But in the third-annual tournament, scheduled for Barton Creek Resort Sept. 8-12, King has a chance to live out his dreams. The 50-year-old superintendent of The Orchards Golf Club in Washington, Mich., is one of 20 superintendents and 288 amateur golfers who qualified for the event. "Isn't that amazing?" King says of his golden "Being a presenting sponsor at the national tournament provides BASF a national platform to recognize the pro- fessional dedication of golf course superintendents," saysToni Bucci, busi- ness manager for BASF Professional Turf and Ornamentals. "Its our way of saluting the crucial work that super- intendents around the country are doing to provide quality turf for their home courses and especially for the golfers who play on them."

  • PGA Master Professionals
    PGA MEDIA GUIDE PGA Master Professionals The PGA Master Professional program was established in 1969 to recognize PGA members who make a significant effort to improve themselves as golf professionals and maintain the highest degree of excellence for themselves and their operations. With the launch of the PGA Certified Professional Program in 2004, the PGA Master Professional Program now originates from the PGA Certified Professional Program. Any PGA member who becomes certified has eight years of combined experience/education and is eligible to work toward Master Professional status by preparing a special project in one or more of the six designated career paths that meets the approval of examiners. The Master Professional applicant will present his or her project to a panel of examiners and answer questions on the project. PGA members who achieved Master Professional status under the former education program were “grandfathered” into the new program and are included below under the career path most closely associated with their thesis. Note: PGA members can achieve Master Professional status in more than one career path, which is why several members appear multiple times in the listing below.
