A great story: The next Tiger?

I think everybody here would enjoy this story about a young boy named Kyle Lograsso. He is 5 years old and seems to love the game of golf as much as any of us here.

Quote:
He says, "Ladies and gentlemen . . . " Imagining the 2021 Masters. "On the tee . . . " By then he'll be 18 years old. "From Strawberry Court . . . " His condo address today. "ME! Kyle Lograsso!"
There's much more to the story, too.

Courage of a Tiger

Update on Kyle
Kyle played in the first round of the FedEx Kinko's Classic today.
Quote:
Kyle's story and his love of golf also caught the attention of FedEx Kinko's Classic, which invited him to Austin to play with the pros on the eve of the tournament.
Quote:
Kyle throws his head back in disappointment after missing a putt. Kyle is a partially sighted cancer survivor who was paired with professional golfer Jay Hass. Hass won the 2006 FedEx Kinko's Classic.
