...and this is news why?

I met Kai a few times. Very nice young lady. She played in a prestigious junior tournament started by Jack and Barbara Nicklaus decades ago (2 rounds) at our club and shot 86 (it is a hard golf course) the first day. I assumed she would no show the 2nd day, but came back and shot 74.

I think she was 17. Meanwhile her 13 year old teammate at The Benjamin School won the event, and Kai was there to hug her on the last green.

That brought back memories of my time at The King's Academy in WPB, including the year Nicklaus' son was on Benjamin's football team and Jack showed up at TKA to see his son (all the Kingsters had binoculars on the home side of the field).
