Pretty cool story on the KFT this week:
Peter Bradbeer and Blake Wisdom both played golf at @Bucknell_MGolf which plays in the Patriot league and doesn't offer scholarships. Because of that there isn't a lot of players that turn pro. In fact in the history of the program only one player made a KFT start, back in 2008.
@peter_bradbeer turned pro a few years ago @Blakewisdom11 turned pro on Sunday. Early last week Blake convinced his old teammate to play the KFT Monday with him this week.
Well, in his pro debut, Blake shot a 64 and was the medalist. And at the other site Bradbeer shot a 65 and survived a three for one playoff to earn the final spot.
Two teammates from a school that has one other KFT start in the History of the program, both qualified into their first PGA Sanctioned tour event on the same day.
And this morning the teed off together in the same group.
Pretty damn cool.
