Scott Schultz, head pro, Oro Valley Country Club, is the Tucson athlete of the week.
In an attempt to raise money for the First Tee of Tucson, Schultz solicited contributions from OVCC members for a bold plan to play six rounds of golf last Monday, one after another, with literally no break between each round.
Incredibly, Schultz played those six rounds (108 holes) in 8ยฝ hours. He shot 69, 70, 70, 75, 78 and 79. Thatโs just 9-over par for the day. He even had a hole-in-one at the 155-yard No. 17 hole.
When Schultz finished, he had raised $2,000 for the First Tee of Tucson. His only help came from OVCC membership chairmanย Jack Talmage, who drove the cart, raked the bunkers and held the flag while Schultz putted. Amazing.
