When Tommy Medina left Pima College’s golf team 12 years ago, he seemed bound for the PGA Tour. He became a two-time All-American at Grand Canyon, played well on the Gateway Tour and at the PGA Tour’s Qualifying School. But four years ago the former Quarry Pines Golf Club employee was diagnosed with colon cancer. It has been a long struggle. OB Sports, which operates seven courses in Tucson, is staging a fundraising event for Medina and his family. The Nov. 4 event will be held at the Mount Graham Golf Club, which is in Medina’s hometown of Thatcher. Entry details: dpalmer@aznational.com.
