Day 1 : Chill practice day.
We were paired with three cool characters today for the practice round at Soboba Country Club, in the desert east of LA.
Josh with his Dad caddying, Sal the career caddy from Canada and a 16 year old phenom Yuvish Singh (Usga index +4.2) and his dad Vic from Canada. That’s + 4. That means he is capable of shooting regularly in the 60’s! SIXTEEN YEARS OLD! I think he would qualify for Mr. Peters Summer Golf camp don’t you! We just had two 15 year olds sign up for a June Class and several other kids 12- 16 have expressed interest. We should have plenty of students to make up groups of younger and older kids, which is great!
Here is a cool article about Yuvish

The '2012 Canadian Tour Q school' consists of 150+ golfers from all over the world. Each has payed over $2,100 in entry fees. They are competing for prizes: 30 exempt cards (you qualify for all full field events on the Canadian tour and 30 non-exempt (you qualify for about half the events on the Canadian tour). They are here chasing their dream, to one day play on a pro tour. For many this is just another step towards their ultimate goal, a PGA tour card. It could mean fame, and fortune.. literally millions! For now all are focused on the goal at hand: A Canadian tour card and a chance to show the world they could be one of the best. Still this year, 60 out of 150 is the best odds in years for these competitors. Enjoy the links, pics and videos. check in tomorrow for more!
