Sunday before the Masters never looked quite like this before. In addition to a few early-arriving Masters participants, there were young girls and boys, some of them barely taller than their drivers, hitting balls off the tee of the Tournament Practice Facility and chips in the short-game area. Other participants in the National Finals of the inaugural Drive, Chip and Putt competition were trying to drain putts on the main practice green between the first and 10th greens and on the 18th green, from more or less the same position from which Adam Scott made his dramatic birdie on the 72nd hole last year.

We at the Utah Section PGA are very sadden at the passing of Gordon Sperry. I always equated Gordon’s first and last initials with “Golden Service”. We will all miss his even temperament and even handedness when making a ruling or starting a group in a golf tournament. But it will be the vast amount of “golden service” to the game of golf that will be missed most. He created a legacy of service that is unmatched around the state.
