Claire Battles it out in St. Louis at Tapawingo!!!


We journeyed to St. Louis Friday for a 2 day Hurricane event with Claire.  We battled high heat , high humidity, high winds, and torrential wind throughout the entire weekend!  Once she got a little familiar with the course, she had confidence and played great golf.  Day 2 had a 2 hour rain delay, but she went back out and shot a stellar 39 on the back.  This is a PGA level difficulty with doglegs everywhere, hills, water, and the thickets junk you've ever seen.  So glad Claire is getting experience on these type courses.




The clubhouse was gorgeous on the inside and out....a wedding was happening as she finished her round Saturday night!


Why can't water coolers be this cute everywhere!
Deer were everywhere....on the range, on the course, and even outside our hotel.  People do not seem to bother them a bit!
One came up right behind Claire during her backswing!
Before her round we did an informal tour of Maryville, a small private school in St Louis with a grils golf program.  She wanted to tour Wash U, but we didn't have the time!  Next time St. Louis!  Anyway, she placed 7th in her division and we were pleased!  There are amazing golfers at this level of golf and we were tickled she held her own.....
