PGA SECTION AWARD WINNERS
Golf Professional of the Year
Tim Basel, PGA
Reunion Golf and Country Club
Gulf States Section
Each year, numerous graduates make great contributions to their respective facility, community, and PGA Section. This past year, there were 6 alumni to earn the nod for one of these distinguished awards.
In honor of the accomplishments of our alumni, the PGA Golf Management staff designed PGA Section Awards boards that are displayed in the GolfTEC-Hansberger Simulator Room to recognize our alumni who have won a Section Award. An individual board was hung in honor of Rod Perry, PGA, and his National PGA Professional Player of the Year Award in 2012 & 2013. In addition, there is one for our Director, Jeff Adkerson, PGA, and his National Horton Smith Award in 2017. These boards serve not only as recognition, but also as inspiration for current students to work hard and strive to be the best.
Congratulations to each of you, and we encourage you to continue to pave the way for current and future PGA Professionals!
