SILVIS, Ill. — The kick-off day at the 2021 John Deere Classic was a big one for a handful of future golf stars.
Six First Tee scholarship winners from all over the country came to Silvis, Illinois on Wednesday, July 7 for the John Deere Classic.
Pro-Am Day offered the winners a chance to learn alongside pros, Danny Lee, Rafa Cabrera-Bello, Mark Hubbard, and Fabián Gómez.
- Abigale Morris from Phoenix, AZ
- Chase Gallagher from Fresno, CA
- Kate Castle from Tennessee
- Kayla Tounalom from Seattle, WA
- Vivian Guite, from Naples, FL
- Luke Boldt from Coastal Carolinas
Each of them received a $5,000 college scholarship along with the VIP John Deere Classic experience.
Typically there are three winners, but the 50th anniversary brought six due to the 2020 tournament being cancelled for coronavirus concerns.
