Greg from Seattle here.....
Stumbled across this website after signing up for the Transportation Committee at Schwab Cup in Nov. 2024.
I've worked around 25 tournaments, virtually all in Transportation, and thought I had a decent resume, but yours, Celina and Andreas, takes the cake!
Sharing some of my highlights would include:
That 1st time at the 2010 US Sr Open at Sahalee, getting the keys to the new Lexus. (I was hooked!)
On-course witness to Brooke Henderson firing an ace to win a new car for her sister/her caddie at the 2016 KPMG/LPGA Championship.
Getting a fist bump from our local fave Fred Couples, at the US Sr Open in Omaha when he recognized my lanyard from the 2010 event.
30 minutes alone with Hale Irwin listening to him talk of the gamesmanship at the Ryder Cup.
Driving CBS's Amanda Balionis from Toledo, OH to Detroit in the $90k BMW.
Danielle Kang whooping up the crowd on the 1st tee box at the 2017 Solheim Cup. The ROAR of the crowd as Lexi eagled 2 holes on the back 9 the final day in a thrilling match vs. Anna Nordqvist. Convincing my buddy to come and work this event with me....And seeing HIM get hooked on it!
Not only meeting Jack Nicklaus, but helping him up off the floor when his chair broke in Player Dining.
The un-named Champions Tour player that left his car running at the Executive Terminal. By the time we figured it out, the keys were at 35,000 feet!
But it's not only this..............It's meeting so many good people from so many different places and backrounds. It's a "different animal" that is willing to sacrifice not only money, but more importantly, time.
I look forward to meeting you both in a few months.
