July 25th, 2019 will long be remembered by Michael Smith, it was his luck day! He was golfing with good friends at his home course, Shade Mountain. Michael retired after 34 years of teaching 5-6th grade math and is a grandfather to a granddaughter and two grandsons.
It was a grueling weeklong event for the ladies. Xiyu Lin was trying to qualify for the final round, that was happening that weekend. Lin started her career in 2014 and has had 7 top-10 finishes in four seasons on the LPGA Tour. During the 4th day of play, Lin did something that most of us golfers only dream of doing. She teed off on the 17th hole and hit a nice high shot, just past the flag and you can see for yourself what happened next.
The First Sergeant Council at the Little Rock Air Force Base has been organizing golf tournaments like this one for about 3 years. Their goal is to provide help and assistance to military families so that when they deploy, they are not worried about any issues they have going on at home and can focus on their mission. Fundraisers like these golf tournaments help ensure The First Sergeant Council can keep doing the great work they do.
