CURT JONES
USBGA Midwest
Regional
Pebble Lake Golf Course,
Fergus Falls
July 18-20
A golf tournament in Fergus Falls may
be a long hike for many Minnesota golf
fans, but consider the path the competitors
haven taken to reach it. In midJuly,
upwards of a dozen blind golfers
mngolf.org
PERRY NOUIS
will compete in the U.S.
Blind Golf Association's
Midwest Regional tournament,
and this unique
competition will be worth
the trek to witness it.
Curt Jones of Battle Lake, Minn., is a
blind golfer, a member of the USBGA
board and host of the regional tournament,
which is taking place in Minnesota
for the fi rst time (see Backspin on page
40 for more on the competition).
Spectators will recognize the game of
golf being played, with just a few minor
rules alterations.
" The rules are basically the same, "
Jones says. " The only difference is a coach
can line up your shot. Then they stand
back and say 'hit it.' Hopefully you hit the
ball. Sometimes you do. Sometimes you
take a real nice divot. And you also can
ground your club in a bunker. "
According to Jones, tournament organizers
are expecting 12-15 competitors
and their coaches for the regional. Jones,
with the help of Pebble Lake GC head
pro Kevin Swenson, held a fundraising
tournament in June and some junior
clinics in the run-up to the event.
" We couldn't have done this without
Kevin, " Jones says. " He's been the key.
There's a lot more work that goes into it
than we thought. "
There's plenty of golf to watch in
Minnesota this summer. But for the most
unique golf tournament you will see in
your lifetime, make the trip to Fergus
Falls for this great mid-summer event.
