A Master’s Champion, US Open Champion, and a British Open Champion. These incredible accomplishments were seen live at the 71st Senior PGA Championship in Parker, Colorado. Fred Couples, Tom Kite, and Tom Lehman entered the weekend all competing for the lead at the prestigious Colorado Golf Club. With a field like that, the doors were flooded with polo shirts and khaki shorts. Attendance was as fluid as Fred Couples swing, and people were gifted with an 85 degree day.
As I walked outside the ropes of the golf tournament, from tee to green I could only see grinning faces from the gallery. With cocktails, water, or gatorades in hand, it seemed as though Colorado were the perfect canvas to present a Championship Trophy. The air is thin, and these so called "Senior" golfers, came to play. Fred Couples (a crowd favorite) climbed up the leader board only to merely lose in a playoff against Tom Lehman. Notable hall of famers, Mark O'Meara and Nick Price etched toward the leaders down the final stretch to make the tournament one to remember.
