The MasterCard Westchester PGA Championship gets under way on Monday at Whipporwill Club in Armonk with 64 of the region’s best club pros going head-to-head on a course that’s perfectly suited for match play.
Head professional and past champion Jim Wahl spent a few minutes with me out in the cold and wind Friday, shooting a short video preview, and if you’ve never played the course, wait until you see what the ball he drops on the seventh green does:
I’ll be at Whipporwill off and on during the week, and we’ll have results on LoHud.com and in The Journal News following each round. You can also follow me on Twitter @LoHudGolf to see what I’m seeing and read what I’m thinking while I follow the players around.
