July Was a Busy Golf Month in Ohio July rains couldn’t dampen the excitement at the Dana Open. Although Saturday and Sunday’s rounds were affected by the wet weather, several golfers kept things interesting. The LPGA’s Dana Open annually brings the best women golfers in the world to the Glass City. Judd Silverman and his staff did a great job once again and raised much needed funds for area children’s charities. We feature two lady golfers that are making a difference in golf through their participation and volunteerism. Collegiate golfer Liz Miller volunteers for LPGA events and is competing for her college golf team. Daryl Nels is won numerous amateur events over her career and still finds time to help the Miami Valley Golf Association and is very involved in her church. Even though most Ohio Golfers hate Michigan, the “Mitten State” has excellent golfing opportunities and the Gaylord Golf Mecca is a popular destination for golfers heading north. Phyllis Barone tells us about her recent visit and some of the things to do when you head Up North. With LIV and the PGA Tour seemingly trying to figure out how to co-exist with the recent merger announcement, the U.S. Congress is continuing to investigate the new agreement and some of the things coming out at the hearings are astonishing to PGA Tour fans. Like every other business, sometimes things get messy. We hope you are enjoying a great summer of golf and maybe we will see you on the Back 9.
