41 year old PGA Professional Ben Kern shot a 3 under par 67, the tied 2nd lowest round of the tournament so far, to comfortably make the cut at the PGA Championship.
Ben is the GM of Hickory Hills GC outside Columbus and says he plays “once a week” with the members, playing off a +6 handicap. After playing well at the 2018 PGA Championship, he said he felt like he finally belonged after spending 6 years “chasing it” on mini tours when he left college:
“Yeah, it just tells me, it shows me, it proves to myself that I can hang with these guys when I'm playing solid, and it was really nice. I felt good yesterday, didn't put up a good score, but the game's -- I hung my head high yesterday, and I had a goal today and I surpassed it.”
He went on to say:
“I spent a good amount of time five, six years after college chasing it, Q-School, mini-tours, and then got married and got in the business. Once I did that, I'm pretty happy with it.
“I am not one to want to practice all the time, so the week in, week out grind doesn't really appeal to me anymore. So I'm very happy with what I'm doing.”
Ben is currently the leader in total birdies for the tournament and no matter what happens this weekend, he will have one awesome story to tell his members back home.
PGA Professionals are the lifeblood of the game and it’s awesome to see them performing on one of the biggest stages in the sport alongside the world’s best players.
